Shaq(explaining his ballot & 2 centers): When you guys let Yao cheat me in voting... You cannot outvote people in China. Yao was starting. I was coming off the bench. 2 centers, I'm rewarding my big guys. Too many forwards in the game.
Drummond and Butler were cheated. Carmelo and Wade as starters... joke. The only good thing is that Leonard made it finally..about time and that Irving didn't steal Lowrys' position. Now that it's in the hands of sane people to vote the reserves he shouldn't be an all star at all.
Shaq: 2 places you gotta play well: New York & Los Angeles. He's(LBJ) gonna play well tonight. Rest of the guys: The game's in Cleveland Ahhh, those guys are fools.
Did you see how Paul turned the ball and then SPRINTED back on defense? Him and almost all other Clippers. Effort... Something you won't see in Rockets games.
