A proposal

I propose we hit up some of the other SB nation team sites and offer up our vote for their players if they’ll vote for ours. WHAT DO YOU SAY!??!

Sure,

let’s take a trip over to the eastern conference and get some support.

If we can get someone to set up a hyper link

so all the blazer players are on it, and all the eastern conference players of whichever other team, it seems like a good idea.. I hate having to select when voting. I prefer to roll my face on the keyboard.

RAPTORS

I guarantee those Dino fans would be all over this idea. If you’re going to have an alliance, you should choose the two most insane bases.

Sidenote

I clicked to create a ballot and got a “you can only vote once daily”, and I have not voted at all on any day yet

I did too

Went to nba.com and was able to vote from there

Strategic

If you want to want to be evil and game the system, make sure that when you vote for the player you want in each category, you also vote for an unlikely-to-win player as the other choice for that category. If you vote for the popular guy, you’re just keeping your own guy down.

I guess I'm not smart enough to vote...

Your link leads me to a page that says I can only vote once every 24 hours… although I haven’t voted yet. And at NBA.com I don’t see anyplace to vote???

Apparently the site knows I will be voting with my heart and not my head (at least in the West) and has decided to exclude me…

GO BLAZERS!!!

Remember last year when Bruce Bowen missed by only a handful of votes?

Thats because thousands of people tried to work the system by voting Bowen as the “other” forward. No one realized that if everyone votes “My Guy and Bowen” then Bowen could actually end up in the all-star game!
 
Careful when you play with fire.

Just don't all pick the same loser

Mix it up and pick the 2nd or 3rd least likely guy sometimes

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
