Its rather sad lamenting the fact that the all-star game votes sometimes have little to do with actual player skill and production and is more so a measuring stick for a player’s popularity. Even more sad is the fact that sometimes a player’s popularity has nothing to do with how well they are playing. As a system that seeks to reward fans more so than players playing well it really needs to be adjusted. Granted even with coaches picking reserves its clear fans have lost sight between skill and sheer popularity. Because well you know, the guy who has played a handful of games (Nash) really deserves more vote than Mayo or Parker.
