    If voting holds and LeBron and Giannis are team captains I wonder if King James will bypass picking Harden for the 2nd year in a row.

    I did not think Derrick Rose was that popular. How is Doncic so popular?

    that 3rd frontcourt spot is going to come down to Ad/pg13 and be close for the players/coaches choice

    Rose has a HUGE fanbase. His legion of only fans will defend him to their dying breath.

    Derrick Rose must have a huge family. :eek:

    Seriously, though, those numbers can't be right. Just yesterday Jason McIntyre said Steph Curry is now the most hated, underappreciated player in the league.

    I don't view those 93K and 20K votes. It is irrelevant.

    It is about 1 million votes.

    Good, let them run that media circus. Harden is about bigger things!

    Derrick Rose being second is disgusting.

    Doncic being second at the forward spot is absurd.

    The fact that DeMarcus Cousins has almost as many votes as Chris Paul is insulting.

    Whatever......... when I saw Vice Carter listed, I knew it was a **** show........

    He's a really really good player, anti-Mavericks aside.

    Meh...

    Harden will make it.

    And TBH, as @Reeko said, he kinda sucks in these games.

    Code:

    Relax. NBA fan voting is as unrigged as an 'election' in Russia.

    Here's what the initial vote tally will turn into by the final ballot:

    1. Lebron
    2. KD
    3. AD
    --
    1. Curry
    2. Harden
    --
    1. Giannis
    2. Kawhi
    3. Embiid
    --
    1. Kyrie
    2. Kemba/Oladipo
