Watch: Tony Allen fills out All-Star ballot for 1st time and it's hilarious

USA Today Sports

The NBA introduced player (and media) All-Star voting this season, and Tony Allen officially filled out his first ballot.

The 34-year-old Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard recorded himself on Periscope on Monday making his picks for the ASG starters in New Orleans.

Forced against his will to vote for players in the East, Allen selected Kemba Walker and Andre Drummond. It all went downhill from there, with Mo Williams (who's effectively retired), Luke Babbitt, and Michael Beasley rounding out the five.

Allen prefaced his West picks by saying he's not an All-Star, but he is an All-Defensive player - a nod he's earned five times. He proceeded to choose teammates Marc Gasol, James Ennis, Zach Randolph, Mike Conley, and of course, himself.

Never change, T.A.
