First Tally Of All Star Votes Are In (Be Warned You Will Be Disgusted)

[NattaNerNuttaMan]

lol...you just won't let it die, huh? I never once said he would get 200 million votes, but that it would be a shame for him to start on All-Star weekend...you can do your lil childish name calling all you want, but I'd thank you to never put words into my mouth...cool? Thanks?

But anywho...I am dubbing a new nickname: Yi Sanjia-lian in memory of all the people who voted for Sanjia on American Idol, just to piss people off....like this situation....he was someone that had no business being on that show as long as he did...but people kept voting anyway....lol

 

[Malorkayel]

Here is why Stern and company don't care who gets voted in. The more people who vote means the more hits the nba website gets, which means the more dollar revenue they can charge for ads. Its all about the money, always has and always will be. Welcome to capitalism our new china friends.....

Wow, we agree for real. All-Star game is meaningless and a tool to generate NBA revenue.

Like how we elected a Black President to piss people off?

yup, it is that way, huh...I would say to do something in the lines of baseball....but then the whole voting process would be rearranged.

Ummm...not not even gonna mess with that....this is just a sport

It's Yibama!!! Just joking. We're talking about pratice? Oh, the ASG. Harris should say he has a Chinese uncle, watch the votes fly up.

lol....good one. Makes you wonder if it worked in reverse.....no player from Spain would ever get into an All-Star game again, after the poster they did in the Olympics....lol

Not really. I don't think mainland Chinese care much about racism. It bothers more Asian Americans. Spain have really good Ballers.

Nets fan should be happy Yi is getting some love. At least that's one player getting votes in this popularity contest. Don't hate on your own teammate.

 

[LoneStarReb]

I just want to add that outta the 300,000 plus votes, I GUARANTEE they weren't ALL Asian, I bet there were even some White and Latino fans voting for Yi.

 

[xflavioVC15x]

Not worried Vince and Harris should get voted in by the coaches

 

[NattaNerNuttaMan]

yeah, I expect that....I was surprised to see Harris so far down on the list though....I just voted for him though that boy is a beast!

Or, y'know, Nets fans.

Also, you have to realize, race or not, Yi Jianlian is pretty much a household name in China. If the Greek basketball league advertised All-Star voting in America, Josh Childress would get tons of votes. Not racist, just he's the only guy American basketball fans know.

I also want to point out that pretty much all the ESPN Highlight reel type of peepz are extremely popular in China...
2007-08 Top Selling Jerseys in China
1. Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers
2. Kevin Garnett, Boston Celtics
3. Tracy McGrady, Houston Rockets
4. Paul Pierce, Boston Celtics
5. Allen Iverson, Denver Nuggets
6. Gilbert Arenas, Washington Wizards
7. LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
8. Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat
9. Dwight Howard, Orlando Magic
10. Yao Ming, Houston Rockets

On contrary to Popular belief, Chinese fans aren't mindless zombies that only vote for their own. Last year was Yi Jianlians ROOKIE YEAR...his Jersey WASN'T even in the top 10....so much for China "Stanning".

 

[Malorkayel]

Stupid Nets fans hating their own players. This is why Knicks pwn the Nets last night. No home court advantage.

 

[Claud]

Devin is the best guard in the east and he is that far behind? are you kidding me? This is why I don't care if Yi gets voted in, this all-star game is a complete joke. Matter fact I want Yi to beat out KG an bosh to prove the point that NBA fans SHOULD NOT be the ones to decide who plays or not.

 

[LoneStarReb]

Devin is the best guard in the east and he is that far behind?

IMO, Dwyane Wade is the best Guard in the East...DH is definitely a force though.

Point Guard= DH
Shooting Guard= D-wade
Small Foward= Lebron James
Power Foward= Kevin Garnett
Center= Superman

Off the bench
- VC
-JJ
-Bosh
-Pierce
-Granger
-Butler
-Jamison

definitely agree. I think I might take Joe Johnson over him too.

 

[LoneStarReb]

definitely agree. I think I might take Joe Johnson over him too.

Yeah, cosign, Joe Johnson is a Diet Clyde Drexler. My only criticism for DH is he needs to get his teammates a little bit more involved THEN score, set the tempo, control the pace, then decimate the defense a la Tim Hardaway back in the day.

WTF black unemployed people all voting for AI. Sh1t need to stop. White people all voting for Ridnour. Sh1t need to stop.

Germans all voting for Dirk... no one cares, but jews might want to look into it.

If Yi wasn't Chinese, would he have half the amount of votes that he does?

Would he have almost FOUR times as many votes as Devin Harris?

Just sayin'

Funny how that actually turn out really. All the Chinese people especially the ones on the Chinese website's that i've seen voted for Yi also voted for VC and Devin Harris. Maybe not a lot of the Chinese votes counted after all bro.

I expect that Chinese people would vote for Yi. It's easy to root for him. But to pretend it's not happening and to get defensive about it is just funny.

 

[Claud]

Now we NEED the chinese fans to vote for DEVIN!!

 

[Malorkayel]

No clue, but RealGM forum people are all voting for Yi to break the ASG system. Don't know the deal with Harris, I guess he was too much of a scrub before a month ago.

What's the deal with Ridnour??? White people stop, you already own hockey.

It's funny too that people will believe anything that they hear or read. I guess Devin Harris isn't really Devin Harris and VC isn't VC. The fans just have got them all mixed up.

Harris was a scrub coming in to the season?

 

[Malorkayel]

That's so sad, probably ONLY Chinese people voted for Harris. That's the total worth of the Chinese voters. From the evidence of last night's game and shitty game fan attendance. There are no Nets fans in US. There are more Raptor fans that hate VC then actually Nets fans.

 

[Malorkayel]

Is that a shock? Go read all the season previews.

I don't need to read any previews, i saw last season's games.
