NBA All Star voting has begun VOTE
- Thread starter oneye
- Start date
One thing I’ve noticed in regards to this that I wish Donovan and Rudy would be a little different about is just linking voting for them in their Instagram stories. I know they might feel corny doing it but guys like Trae Young do it every day, posting about voting for him to be an AS. I know that’s not their style but do it for each other if nothing else. Donovan has 2.8 million followers on IG. I get why you might feel dumb doing it but he could rack up some serious votes if he just linked to vote for him in his story like other guys do around the league. Or teammates could do it too.

I forget how many players the fans can vote in per conference, any ideas?

For coaches, it's 2 guards, 3 frontcourt and 2 wildcards per conference.
But they get to select each conference or just their own?
Coaches can only vote for players who are in their own conferences and not for their own players.
Great show of support but post the link so some people vote lol! And Rudy do the same! Guys like Trae Young have no shame putting it in their stories asking for votes.

ASG is a joke. Rather than Rudy don't go there. The way players play in ASG is not the kind of basket Rudy plays. I like Rudy, we love him but I don't think others players will like the way he plays. Unfortunately, Rudy is just not in the good era for him.
I finally think I prefer he never is All star and people will say of him at the end that he was the best player (multiple DPOY, all NBA and all NBA defensive team) to not be selected. It's sad to say but I'm afraid that people remember him like a crying guy if he continues to focus on ASG like that.
Nowadays, ASG is a real joke and means nothing. We all know who you really are my Rudy and how much you are valuable. Don't worry, good things always happens to good people.

The fact that Towns is ahead of Rudy. Towns is in Minnesota so it isn't like the T-wolves have a ton of fans nationally. DM being 7th come on. Injured players should not be listed on the ballot. However the biggest joke is Rudy not being in the top ten in center voting. This is why the fans shouldn't vote. People forget that Rudy played well in his only All-star game. The JV all-star game.. Anyone saying Rudy's style doesn't fit is being ridiculous. Rudy plays defense which is rarely seen. I would love seeing players trying to dunk over Rudy and he stonewalls most of them. The maybe the rest of the nation would realize Rudy is awesome.
Hmmm...interesting thought. You can't just take injured players off the ballot because guys get injured at any given time. However, what if they put a % of games played requirement to be eligible for the AS game? May even cut back on "load management". Also, Rudy's never getting the fan vote but he should get the coaches vote, although it's obvious you can't even trust them. Donovans voting numbers are pretty decent considering. He will have a chance at getting voted in, in the future if his trajectory continues. Donovan's style of play is fun, and what casuals see. They see his dunks, then see his face on an All Star ballot and click him. Rudy's dunks just don't make all the social media accounts or ESPN unfortunately.

I've been voting mostly Jazz players every day now. Keep up the good work you guys!
Voting is such a joke. Not actually voting for all stars, which is funny because when I vote, because it’s just a **** show, all I’m doing is finding the first Jazz guys I can and submitting it. So far it’s been Rudy, Donovan, Ingles, Bojan and Clarkson.
KAT sucks. Healthy or not.
Stats though. If he misses many more games there is no way he should get voted in.
