I think the good majority of Bulls fans will agree with me that Luol Deng is one of the most under rated players in the game. And this season, up until his injury, he has proven, at least to me, that he is an All-Star! What are your thoughts, should Deng be an All-Star? I'll keep voting daily for or Bulls until voting ends, I hope you all do the same!

No doubt about it. He's truly elevated his game the last two seasons. It's a shame this injury is going to slow down his development some.

Deng is overlooked because he's in the same conference as Carmelo and James. It's a shame that he doesn't get the recognition he deserves, but flying under the radar isn't the worst thing in the world. He quietly goes about his game and continues to put up solid numbers. We as Bulls fans acknowledge and appreciate his contributions for this team and that's ultimately all that matters.

I agree! He certainly has stepped up his game, and his minutes played! We are surely missing him right now, but I am trying to think long term, rather than right now! Hoping he can come back and play at a high level again!

He could make a case, but I doubt he'll get in.

I'm rather sick of it being a popularity contest! I hope the NBA does something about it soon. Those who actually deserve to be in the game should have that opportunity. Just my/our opinion.

He could be picked as a reserve, but he needs to come back shortly and play strong for that to happen.

Question: Is it still the case that the coach from the best team of a conference selects the bench?

If so Deng should be in! :)

Would be the first guy to play 40+ minutes in an Allstar game! :D

lol Can you imagine that! OH Waddle and Silvy would be giving Thibs a hard time if that were the case! I know Stacey would be upset. I'll just be happy if he makes the team, he works hard, and deserves it!

No, its voted on by all the coaches in the league. Top vote getters are selected as reserves. If anyone is injured and can't play the coaching staff that is selected selects the replacement.
