NEW YORK, N.Y. - LeBron James and Kobe Bryant are the leading vote-getters, while Jeremy Lin has a chance to bring Linsanity to the NBA All-Star game. Lin was running third among Western Conference guards behind Bryant (639,419 votes) and Chris Paul (353,603) when the NBA released the first All-Star balloting update of the season Thursday. Lin was a little more than 55,000 votes behind Paul as he tries to gain a starting spot for the Feb. 17 game in his home arena in Houston. Lin, an Asian-American who became a worldwide phenom last season while playing for the New York Knicks, has struggled in his first season with the Rockets but remains popular in Asia and figures to benefit from this being the first time fans can vote via social media. James had 641,348 votes. Carmelo Anthony was second among East frontcourt players and Kevin Garnett was about 7,500 votes ahead of Chris Bosh for the remaining starting slot. Dwyane Wade and Rajon Rondo led East guards. Kevin Durant, Dwight Howard and Blake Griffin led in the race for the West frontcourt spots. Voting continues through Jan. 14 and starters will be announced Jan. 17.

Head coach Dallas Eakins indicated the possibility of keeping up to fifteen forwards with eight defencemen and three goaltenders firmly on the squad to start the regular season.While Alexander Ovechkin drew attention last month for saying he might stay and play in the KHL if he doesnt agree with the terms of a new CBA in the NHL, fellow countryman Sergei Gonchar doesnt think that line of thinking is that unreasonable. The Ottawa Senators defenceman told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun on ESPN.com on Friday that in his opinion, staying home is a possibility. "Yeah, why not? If you think about it, maybe you can put something in the new CBA," said Gonchar, who is playing for Magnitogorsk in the KHL. "If the guys feel like its not fair whats on the table, they might ask [NHLPA executive director] Don [Fehr] to put something in the new CBA too allow them to stay back home.dddddddddddd. I mean, why not? We dont know where its going with that new CBA. Everything is possible. Thats why I think there is a chance that a guy like Alex might stay back home." The KHL and the NHL have a memo of understanding whereby each league promises to respect each others contracts so that under the terms, players under NHL contracts currently in the KHL should return to North America after the NHL lockout ends. According to LeBruns ESPN.com blog, there has been speculation that Ovechkin and players like Ilya Kovalchuk or Pavel Datsyuk might consider trying to stay in Russia, even after the end of the lockout.
