This Wednesday NBA.com officially opened All-Star voting to fans who can now select up to 18 players who they think should represent the leagues elite during the NBA's annual All-Star game.
Toronto fans should be pleased to see three Raptors on the ballot including guards Jose Calderon, Demar DeRozan and power forward Andrea Bargnani.
Realistically it may be hard to imagine seeing the underrated Calderon make the team, but anything is possible. Budding star Demar DeRozan has not failed to impress, but he will be competing with perennial superstars such as Dwyane Wade, Derrick Rose, Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen; like Calderon, DeRozan would need a mini-miracle to be selected on the team.
While Andrea Bargnani is no exception to these very same obstacles, I believe the leading scorer and captain of the Toronto Raptors could—under the right circumstances—find himself representing the East All-Stars in Orlando.
Here are my reasons:
