The great debate. Should you award winning when choosing the players who get to participate in the All-Star game?

Charles Barkley for example, picked DeAndre Jordan and Kawhi Leonard as All-Star reserves because of the teams they play for. Kenny Smith said if Kevin Love wasn't voted in by the fans that he would have had a tough time making his reserve list, because of the team he plays for.

So again, should winning be awarded in the All-Star reserve voting, or should the best players get the nod?

Best players. Inside the NBA is funny, but the only one on there who is a little bit informative is Kenny Smith

Not the point where players like Kawhi Leonard are considered when he's not even having an all-star caliber year.
 
But if it comes down to two players with similar stats, one on a winning team and one not, I think the player on the winning team deserves it.

That's different. As a tie-breaker, it's fine. But it shouldn't weigh at all unless it's the last thing it comes down to

Theres a reason guys average great numbers on bad teams
These guys could say whatever they want, but it means their teammates suck

Aflalo for example is more efficient this year than last year with the same minutes and shots per game, but better numbers. He is doing his job, its not his fault his teammates arent good

Tnt guys are really old fashioned
