            Seriously though, it's way too early for this to be available.

                Eh, it doesn't matter. I agree if you want All Stars to actually be All Star caliber players, but it's just a popularity contest for the fans...

                  True. If fans are going to be directly and solely involved, then I do not believe it matters when the ballots are released, for it will break down into a popularity contest regardless.

                    I did a write-in for Brandon Jennings. Seriously though, if you want to get a group together, I will fervently cast thousands of votes for a scrub just because I want to crack the system and show how bad it is.

                    Depending on position, 900,000 may win it. If you would like to crack the system, Yi Jianlian is a smart vote. In 2007-08, he garnered the most points ever for a write-in, and last year, he finished 3rd in East Forwards (James, Garnett) with over a million votes in his first year on the ballot.

                    Actually, the starters have been pretty good in past years. The biggest problem is reserves who are selected by coaches solely because they play on good teams (and then Mike Brown and Flip Saunders play them in excess and only with their regular-season courtmates).

                      I'll write in Brandon Jennings. I'll vote for LeBron. The rest I don't care so much about.

                        I was shocked that Yi didn't start the All-star game last year. I figured Yao and Yi would start the game every year from the Chinese vote.

                              People always say stuff like this about how the system is broken but any plan will fall through. For starters, Yi isn't even on the ballot.
