Title: Elton Brand is 7th In Western Conf. All Star Voting - Guess who's above him??
Post by: ecrazy on December 18, 2005, 03:44:28 AM
Tracy McGrady (Hou.) 600,507
Kevin Garnett (Min.) 469,497
Tim Duncan (S.A.) 456,017
Dirk Nowitzki (Dal.) 208,555
Carmelo Anthony (Den.) 111,419
Amare Stoudemire (Pho.) 95,266
Elton Brand (LAC) 93,474
Shawn Marion (Pho.) 82,600
Pau Gasol (Mem.) 80,898
Lamar Odom (LAL) 64,676

Brand has been on fire, yet he is outvoted by someone who HASNT EVEN PLAYED A GAME YET!!! Fans are retarded and too biased, i mean, at least recognise skill and vote for Someone WHO HAS PLAYED A GAME!!! - Shows once again the biased against the Clippers, Just wait after this season though, it wont be happening again.

 :-X  Brand and Bosh should start for each conference IMO!!  Elton Brand is the mid-season MVP hands down.  And fuck Yao Ming getting any votes, theres many players who should be selected before him.

Where you got those numbers from Larry?

Mines are different

well it's obvious that it's more about popularity than actual skill. That's why always the same players get the most votes, no matter what.

a thoughtful list would definitely feature Brand & Camby on top. They have breakthrough seasons. Iverson deserves his spot. It's unbelieveable dude's doing what he's doing at 30.

LeBron James (Cle.) 665,849
Jermaine O’Neal (Ind.) 387,893
Rasheed Wallace (Det.) 186,911 << this guy shouldnt even be in the top 20 votes
Ron Artest (Ind.) 186,032  << whats so good about him? we got players like Paul Pierce and Chris Bosh who are top 20 players in the whole leauge and this guy isn't even one of the best in the east and yet he beats both players in these votes.
Chris Webber (Phi.) 167,436
Paul Pierce (Bos.) 126,353
Grant Hill (Orl.) 100,125 << this is a joke.. even if he was playing he wouldnt even deserve to play in the all star game
Tayshaun Prince (Det.) 99,082
Chris Bosh (Tor.) 83,003
Andre Iguodala (Phi.) 79,581



Shaquille O'Neal (Mia.) 646,085 << hasn't even played most of this season and his playing skills are drastically falling off
Ben Wallace (Det.) 336,518
Zydrunas Ilgauskas (Cle.) 55,576
Andrew Bogut (Mil.) 43,615
Samuel Dalembert (Phi.) 32,998 << what were they thinking even allowing anyone to vote for him
Nenad Krstic (N.J.) 27,545
Raef LaFrentz (Bos.) 26,496 << this should be Mark Blount but somehow he wasn't even available to pick
Eddy Curry (N.Y.) 25,675
Jamaal Magloire (Mil.) 21,933*
Jeff Foster (Ind.) 20,758


fuck this game all its always been about is popularity and like almost nothing to do with skills

We'll see...Maybe he'll be better by then. Currently, Brand is a better/more complete player. Remember, Bosh has more development to go through, so we never know...
