LeBron triumphs in vote
Quote:
CLEVELAND - LeBron James got two pieces of good news on Thursday, one physical and one ceremonial.
The NBA officially announced James had become the first member of the Cavaliers to lead the league in All-Star voting, garnering more than 2.5 million votes (second most all-time), to edge injured favorite Yao Ming by about 1 million votes. James will make his third consecutive All-Star start and defend his game Most Valuable Player trophy on Feb. 18 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.
He will be joined in the Eastern Conference starting lineup by Shaquille O'Neal, Dwyane Wade, Gilbert Arenas and Chris Bosh. The West starters will be Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady, Kevin Garnett, Tim Duncan and Yao, although he won't be able to play.
