LOS ANGELES--"The 2011 NBA All-Star Ballot was unveiled today during a special tip-off event in Los Angeles, the Official Host City of NBA All-Star 2011. NBA All-Star Balloting presented by T-Mobile will begin this afternoon at 3 p.m. ET. The 60th NBA All-Star Game, which will air live on TNT and ESPN Radio in the U.S., and reach fans in more than 200 countries and territories in more than 40 languages, will be played at STAPLES Center on Sunday, Feb. 20,2011.

2011 NBA All-Star Balloting presented by T-Mobile, with associate partner 2K Sports, allows fans around the world to vote daily for their favorite players as starters for the 2011 NBA All-Star Game.

The NBA All-Star ballot lists 120 players -- 60 each from the Eastern and Western conferences -- with 24 guards, 24 forwards, and 12 centers from each conference comprising the list.

NBA All-Star Jam Session presented by adidas, the hugely successful interactive basketball celebration, will return to the Los Angeles Convention Center. Los Angeles and the STAPLES Center will host NBA All-Star 2011, marking the fifth time The City of Angels and the second time STAPLES Center will be the site of the annual celebration.

Sefko: Tyson Chandler deserves a spot in All-Star game.

"Could Tyson Chandler make the All-Star game this season? How about in the future?

Don't think it can happen for two reasons. One, the Chinese vote is going to put Yao Ming into the starting lineup, even if he's only playing 20 minutes a game and only plays 20 games before the All-Star break. And then you have Andrew Bynum and ... wait a minute.

I just went through the Western Conference centers, and you're right. This guy is as important to his team as any of them. The coaches recognize how good he's playing. And the West is shy on real centers. OK, you've convinced me. Let's start the campaign."

Bryant, Howard lead All-Star balloting third returns.
By Official release
Posted Jan 6 2011 1:07PM


NEW YORK--"Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers and Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder top the Western Conference, while Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic and LeBron James of the Miami Heat lead the Eastern Conference after the third returns of 2011 NBA All-Star Balloting presented by T-Mobile. Bryant, The Finals MVP last season, is the overall leader with 1,391,597 votes.

The 2011 NBA All-Star Game, which will air live on TNT and ESPN Radio in the U.S., and reach fans in more than 200 countries and territories in more than 40 languages, will be played at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, Feb. 20, 2011.

In the Western Conference, Bryant, a three-time All-Star MVP, who garnered the honor in 2002, 2007 and 2009, is followed at guard by the New Orleans Hornets' Chris Paul (724,605). Kevin Durant, a member of last year's All-NBA First Team, paces forwards in the West (945,944), with the Nuggets' Carmelo Anthony (742,284) second. The Houston Rockets' Yao Ming (754,583) is the leading vote-getter among Western Conference centers, with the Lakers' Andrew Bynum (493,237) placing second.

Howard, the leading vote-getter in the Eastern Conference with 1,205,159 votes, paces centers in the East, followed by the Boston Celtics' Shaquille O'Neal (506,621). James, a two-time All-Star MVP (2006, 2008), leads all Eastern Conference forwards with 1,194,091 votes, followed by the Celtics' Kevin Garnett (850,687), MVP of the 2003 All-Star Game. The Heat's Dwyane Wade, last years All-Star Game MVP, paces all guards with 1,167,649 votes; the Celtics' Rajon Rondo is second among guards in the East (929,781).

Brendan Haywood drops in all-star voting.

"Mavericks center Brendan Haywood has not been putting up all-star numbers this season.

Haywood is averaging 3.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 0.91 blocks per outing.

Yet, his name was among the top three centers in the Western Conference all-star voting last week.

This week he has dropped to No. 5 among centers in the West.

Houston's Yao Ming leads all centers with 754,583 votes.

Andrew Bynum, L.A. Lakers, 493,237; Nene, Denver, 292,829 and Marc Gasol 263,000 are the next three players ahead of Haywood, who has 245,737 votes.

Update: "2011 NBA All-Star Voting: Carmelo Anthony Still Trails Kevin Durant Among Forwards.
When the 2011 NBA All-Star Game is played in the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, Feb. 20, will Carmelo Anthony still be a member of the Denver Nuggets? With a deal to the New Jersey Nets or the New York Knicks looming, we could see Anthony playing for the Eastern Conference. Be that as it may, Carmelo Anthony still holds a starting spot for the Western Conference after the latest NBA All-Star results were released.

The Oklahoma City Thunder's Kevin Durant leads Western conference voting for forwards with 1,270,729 ballots, while Carmelo Anthony is second with 945,270. The Los Angeles Lakers' Pau Gasol is third and the Los Angeles Clippers' Blake Griffin is fourth. San Antonio Spurs forward Tim Duncan rounds out the top five.

The Lakers' Kobe Bryant leads Western Conference guards and league-wide ballots with 1,757,216 votes. The Nuggets' Chauncey Billups was placed on the ballot, but he has not appeared in the top 10.

Nene still holds third-place among Western Conference centers, behind only Yao Ming (who is out for the season) and Andrew Bynum.

The Magic's Dwight Howard (1,537,619) and the Heat's LeBron James (1,518,807) and Dwyane Wade (1,499,768) each lead their respective positions in Eastern Conference voting."

Scouting Report"Assets A unique talent: he's a legitimate 7-footer with one of the purest shooting strokes in NBA history. An elite natural scorer and tireless worker, and a gritty rebounder.

Flaws While a good athlete with solid quickness, he's not very fast or fluid. Only an average defender. Sometimes forces shots when he should pass. Sometimes struggles when all eyes are on him in clutch situations."
