it's pretty cool

to see all 5 of our starters in the top 10.

Look
I didn’t want to offend anyone by saying the "f" word or generalizing my statement to any particular sex by saying "gays" or lesbians" or "bi’s" so "homos" is the most "politically correct" term. I’m just trying to be more tact in a tactless blog.

Can't believe he has more votes the LeBron still

I still remember that one day he first got voted in and how he was barely victorious over Rondo.

Things done changed

yeah in the last returns before the final announcement

he had finally come from behind to overtake rondo, but he ended up being closer to overtaking wade than losing to rondo at the final tally (and lebron wasn’t that much ahead of wade, either). not surprised at all he overtook them since he started out a lot more popular this year than last.

We gotta keep voting for Noah

Just in case Howard gets traded to the West, we need to make sure Noah doesn’t get overtaken by Tyson or anybody else. #homerism

Pat Riley is the devil.

that centers list is pretty sad..

That's why Howard is so valuable.

It’s not just that he’s a great center, it’s also that there are so few great or even good centers in the game.

coming soon to a post near you

they really need to trade his ass off

i would rather have rondo at this point than westBRICK. Rondo actually would be willing to pass to Durant and would do a better job fitting with that team.

I cant believe I just complemented Fuckin Rondo…

hey, refs!

time to start loving D.Rose!

by JustAnotherFan on Jan 19, 2012 6:01 PM CST reply actions

Wow, that's awesome

More votes than Lebron and Wade. 3rd most votes overall. Plus you have to think that Howard getting so many votes has more to do with the lack of other deserving candidates at his position. So arguably Rose is the second most popular player in the league. Sweet.

Oh, and Fuck Rondo.

Sadly, my self worth is almost entirely based upon the outcome of the previous night's Bulls game.
