I think that there is a better solution for defining player position. Have a player be eligible in a position that he has played enough minutes in. If you put a 25 minute average needed for a position than a player could only be eligible for 1 position. If a player didn't average 25 minutes in a position, then he could just be listed as his BB position.

That's another valid option...When i suggested assuming the BB-defined positions, i was thinking the easier way to make it happen 'cause i understand that implementing something like this could demand some kind of effort from the game engine..
But your suggestion is great and takes on account what i meant in the first place with this topic which is relating the ASG with the users instead of being some sort of random process...

We all know what would happen... Guys would vote for their players, no matter how good they are, and then vote for the weakest at each position to kill competition... In the end, I'm affraid that the results would not be better than with the current system.

You are right. In fact camarro wrote

2 - Each user could vote for the best 3 players per position (with position being defined by BB and not by where the player actually played the majority of his minutes...). For example, the best PG gets 5 points, the 2nd gets 3 points and the 3rd gets 1 point. The process is repeated for all the positions in both squads, regardless of the conference in which the user is competing..Of course, you wouldn't be able to vote for your own players...


Maybe we can state that you will be able to vote only for your conference!

i think a vote could only work, if the initial vote process was done by the system, and the player could order the votes for the top 4 of each position. if they don't do it, the system would choose it like before.

If you vote for the weakest players of your conference, your all star team will lose the game.
Considering that ASG has no impact on merchandising or anything else it's no big deal, right?

The aim is to involve people to follow and partecipate All-Star week. If they want to partecipate by destoying it (voting bad players) that's ok, it's better than now. Right now it's just a waste of time.

I'm not sure to understand why someone gets benefits by voting in the worst...Just to win the ASG?? What do you get by winning the ASG?

And you're right, Biffo, the aim is to get the community involved...as it is, the ASG has very little to do with the users...through this everyone will be able to participate...I can't speak for everyone but, given the opportunity, i would really vote for the best 'cause i can't see a purpose in doing the opposite...maybe i'm being naive but i can see this working in a positive way...

ASG has very much to do with the users! Without it the cup could not take place for the bigger countries, not enough time without the additional cup game in one week.

This could be also a good idea.

For example we could introduce the very same system to vote for the MVP of the league at the end of the season. With CrazyEye's suggestion this could be implemented as well.
