All-time All-star teams by birth month

All-time All-star teams by birth month

This is a reprisal of an article I wrote a while back, before I had a blog, where it lurked in obscurity on some other site thread. I had had some spare time and decided with the help of my NBA calendar which lists the birthday of notable NBA players each day to compile come all star teams divided by birth month... if all entered into a tournament with all players at their prime which month's team would win it all?
