God I hate this organization
Actually Vinny said in the interview last week that they were going to do votes.
IMO, Rose should be given and then Kirk and 1 of Miller/Noah.

Based on what? Who are 'the younger players'? Because I know that Thomas has worked out with Deng in off seasons past, and Noah has spoken about hanging out with Deng in the past.

I would imagine that everyone likes Lu; he appears to be one of the nicest guys in the league.

I could be completely off on this, but this is just the vibe I get about Deng's relationship with his teammates. I'm not saying they outcast him or anything, because this is a team full of good character, decent guys from all accounts, but I wouldn't say he's in the top half on this roster of guys the other players are most comfortable around.
If the above is true, then it's stupid. That said, I don't really take much care into who we label 'captains'. You don't need an official title to be a leader.
It's really not that important.

You're incorrect on this. From talking with the players, I can tell you that Deng is definitely one of the most popular guys on the team. If I were to just predict whom I thought the most popular guy on the team was based on talking with players I would have guessed Luol, followed by Noah.

Dr Manhattan wrote:Looks like I was wrong. Oh well, I still think it's possible guys just don't wanna hurt Deng's feelings by removing him from captain status all of a sudden. Could throw his focus off and create a rift. Deng is clearly not fit to be a leader. Can we all agree on that at least?

Why would anyone agree to something so unknow-able to the outside fan?
