Once the NBA had officially decided to remove the center position from All-Star ballot, Dwight Howard of the Los Angeles Lakers was one of the first two speak out about the league’s decision. The new All-Star ballot will give fans the option of voting for three frontcourt players from each conference instead of being required to vote for a center in the East and West.

In classic Howard fashion, the six-time All-Star appeared in a parody called “Save The Centers” mocking the new NBA rule:
