    You know your team is seriously lacking in star power when it is represented by Chase Budinger and Chandler Parson in an ALL-STAR weekend. Geez...

    Maybe the all star weekend people just got Parsons and Bud confused on the events they were chosen for.


    All white do look the same after all.

    I'm pretty sure no one is confused.

    Probably acknowledging the fact that the snubbed him out of the rookie/sophomore game and realized they screwed the Rockets one too many times this season so they decided to put him in.

    He should have been in the rooking/sophomore game so he'd at least get to show his defense. Being in this competition does not make sense.

    Oh ok, just making sure, I mean he's not a shooter but neither was Tim Duncan when he was in it and he actually nailed a halfcourt shot if I remember correctly.

    Stern did this so that people can laugh at him.

    He's Chandler BANG whether he's dunking or shooting.

    (He bangs it off the rim when he shoots).

    Unless every teams is represented by a player doesn't it reflect all of the NBA not just the Rockets?

    Budinger in Slam Dunk contest, and Parsons in Shooting Stars.

    Is the league trying to embarrass the Rockets for some reason?

    I really think that the NBA has Parsons and Budinger confused for each other

    They obviously wanted Parsons for shooting stars to show he transcends racial stereotypes by his inability to shoot the ball :p
