There is a zero percent chance of Lin getting voted in over Kobe and CP3. In fact with Nash in LA now I wouldn't be surprised if Nash was voted into that second spot. No guard is getting more votes than Kobe.

I got Josh Smith in the East. He is already overdue for an all star spot. Also Kyrie Irving has a shot.

In the West I got Al Jefferson and Rudy Gay. If Utah has a winning record and in the playoff mix there is no way he will be left out this year unless he is hurt. Cousins will have the numbers but with this new age you have to be on a winning team thing now he won't make it off of the Kings record alone.

Lin will get all the votes Yao used to get from Asian NBA fans. He will start with Kobe. Thats why Yao made it as a starter evenvthough he missed like 90% of the games some seasons

You do realize that Yao was getting that monster push from China and was at center. Lin is not chinese and plays at a postion where the votes are harder to come by. Yao had a much larger following than Lin could dream of.

Al Jefferson has never made an all star team though he was robbed one year when he was in Minny.

Lin is still Asian & the NBA is big over there. With all the Linsanity stuff going on last yr I think he got quite a few fans. Its not like hes Yi. He actually is a some what ok player. I dont think he deserves to make it, but I think he does because of voting

Eric Gordon could slip in the West if healthy, big if
