    I think this will really help his confidence. I'd like to see him look for his shot a little more.

    Rising Stars Challenge is henceforth renamed "NBA Allstar Weekend Ladies Night Out."

    Which will probably end up turning into Cougars Night Out.

    Last year Lin played with rising star-Landry Field, this year is Chandler Parsons. Just saying.

    but but Chandler is actually a good player.
    I don't know what happened to Fields. He only played well for a short time period.

    He finished a small surgery to remove something which affected him for almost whole last season, he found out this season only.

    Actually Lin was a Rising Allstar last year. He played on Shaq's team with Blake Griffin.:)

    No surprise here, though it's kinda sad to see the Rockets have only 1 player in the rising stars game considering we're the youngest and have a pretty decent record.

    Chandler and Fields are actually pretty similiar players....only thing is Chandler is probably a better shooter and Fields has more leg lift for Lin's alley-oops.
