Nets' starting five on All-Star ballot

All five of the Nets' starters are on the 2013 NBA All-Star ballot.

Deron Williams and Joe Johnson can be voted in as East guards, while Brook Lopez, Kris Humphries and Gerald Wallace can be voted in as East frontcourt players.

Voting began at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday and will end Jan. 14.

The starters will be announced Jan. 17 on TNT. The game takes place in Houston on Feb. 17.

Johnson has played in every All-Star Game since 2007, but will have to do a lot better than 13.6 points on 36.2 percent shooting if he wants to make it a seventh straight time.

D-Will has played in every All-Star Game since 2010, and will be seeking his fourth consecutive appearance.

Wallace was an All-Star in 2010. Lopez and Humphries have never made the team.
