NBA All-Star Starters Announced

The votes have been counted and the NBA All-Star starting fives have been announced. I used this article from Dime rather than the official reports because they also give you the breakdown of the voting and their thoughts about what happened. Click on the title below to read the full story.

The votes are in…

EASTERN CONFERENCE
G - Allen Iverson
G - Dwyane Wade
F - LeBron James
F - Kevin Garnett
C - Dwight Howard

WESTERN CONFERENCE
G - Kobe Bryant
G - Chris Paul
F - Tim Duncan
F - Amare Stoudemire
C - Yao Ming

* Dwight was the overall leading vote-getter, tallying more than three million votes. LeBron finished second at just over 2.9 million, and Kobe (2.8M), D-Wade (2.7M) and Duncan (2.5M) rounded out the top five. All of them topped the previous all-time high number of votes, a record previously held by Yao from the 2005 season.


Did the fans get it right, who would you have voted in?
