I'm gonna say I don't understand how the votes are counted either. Of my 2 representatives, my SF kind of makes sense to start, the numbers of all the players are pretty close at least, but my PF beat out at least 1 clearly more worthy player at his position.

Add my vote to not really getting it. I only got one person on the whole roster. I expected him but I expected a couple of more too.

For players making it or not making it in their position, I can ort of get it. Maybe an average player on a bad team will seem to the fans as a better player as compared to a great player on a great team.

But for cross-positions, now I'm baffled. Maybe a SG voted in the allstar as a SF, okay as the 2 positions are quite closely linked in terms of their skillset. But a PG voted as a PF? How is this calculated? My PG in question, Waldemar Hergenröder, does not have the skills to play inside. Nor is he tall enough.

your PG played as a PF in at least one of your gales this season?

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

After checking the records, one.
And it's safe to say he didn't have the best of games.

that's not possible.

It should be a bug, players won't be selected for that position for the ASG if they didn't play the required minimum of x games this season.
You can't be an Allstar when you played 1 awesome game at 1 position.

it might be a bug yes, or it might be intended that way, but I suspect (not sure!) that once a player has played enough games, no matter his position, he is put into the all-star-bag,
then the system goes over the average performance of the player for the position(s) he played. It might be very possible if he played only 1 game, and performed very well at a given position, he will be selected...
I'm not sure the system works this way, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did either...

Following Juicepats' post I saw somewhere, there will be a bonus for players of teams that draw big crowds, or in other words, teams that draw bigger crowds, have more fans and fans are more likely to vote for a player of their favorite team. this way it might be possible the player with less performance still makes it...

Is all-star voting based on performance numbers alone or do skill helps get added in somehow?

I'm curious on how my PG.......was voted the 4th best PF in the Great 8. Shouldn't he be under the PG category?


He did play PF 3 games (and he may have played SG more than PG this season).

If they were simulating how the ASG voting is done, he might have been classified as a PF based on his early season games.
