Initial All-Star balloting returns are in

And Utah players will always only get in on the coaches vote. We don't have a big enough fan base to vote anyone in.

....Utah will always be equated with white, slow and generally....anti-hopper! Nobody out side of Utah is going to vote or support anything from the state! If you list 10 NBA teams that fans could vote on to deep six or disolve....Utah would rank number 1.

CP3 doesn't 'gamble' for steals. Gambling is when you're out of position and hurting your teams defense solely based on trying to get steals. Chris Paul doesn't do this. Jazz fans should only hope for Deron to get more steals as it takes possessions away from the opposing teams. How could that be a bad thing? Oh I guess it's only bad when Chris Paul does it right? LMAO.



And you guys know All-Star fan voting is for the fans. It's for who the fans want to see and it looks like during these initial results, the fans want to see Chris Paul. It's not like the Hornets have been having many nationally televised games.

The All-Star voting has turned into Chinese Idol. If you polled the fans who watch more than 30 games a year, I bet you would see different results than Yao starting at center.

I'd love to see the total votes by country/region. Allowing China to vote like they do is a joke.

OOH really i see good steals and bad steals.
if you gamble on a steal and you miss the steal your man is basiccally open. now if you have good interiour defense cp3 has okafur it could be corrected. but if the offense is better lets say.
cp3 guards player A. cp3 gambles on that steal player a gets open drives to the paint now okafur blocks his layup no harm done. now lets say okafur is giarding player b decides to challenge the open player a wich is open because of cp3 gamble. player a passes to player b and scores. is that great deafense?

i'm just saying when i watch ceepee3 he gambles to much
so what if he gets 3 steals per game. how many gambles go wrong.
