Blazers Fans Disappointing in All-Star Voting

Seriously people, this is pathetic.  This is our only professional franchise, we fill the arena every single night, talk about them constantly with peers and co-workers, yet can't find 1 minute a day to vote them into the NBA All-Star game.  Come on!

I know! I've been voting every single day for Brandon, LaMarcus, Greg (even after the injury), and Rudy as my write-in vote. The turnout thus far is pretty pathetic.

Well, right now there aren't any guards in the West better than Kobe and Nash. The same goes for fowards, Dirk and Anthony. As for centers without Yao and Shaq, Amare is the only choice since Duncan is a foward.

What's pathetic is that people are still voting for Tracy McGrady...this is like the 3rd year in a row the guy has been injured yet still gets voted in as a starter.

i feel you guys. im a laker fan but i really like watching the blazers especially your boy b-roy. i think besides kb24 b-roy should be 3rd in the guard cp3 being the 2nd. im sure the coaches will vote b-roy off the bench.

while lamarcus stats went down when oden was healthy, im sure hell pick up the slack and will start racking up the pts and reb. im just not sure if that can help him be an all star where west is fully loaded in te forward position. melo, dirk, pau, duncan, durant, boozer.

good luck blazers fans and i hope a speedy recovery for your big man. i really want to see our boy bynum go against your boy oden in the playoffs.

Possibly the greatest comment from a Lakers fan ever. I actually appreciate that Pat.

About This Blog

This Portland Trail Blazers blog definitely isn't your basic "recap/report the news" kind of blog. We tend to lean a little to the sporadic and unsystematic side of this young and sexy basketball team. Oh, and you'll definitely see a lot of Blazer Dancer action around here, so bring your bucket of ice.
