    According to Worrell anyway...no official source. But he said Malone is unhappy that he wasn't a starter and there's a chance he will sit out. Probably not much of one though. If he does I'm pretty sure Steve would get the replacement nod...I have heard that he got a lot of votes, and was probably next on the list to make it. Thoughts?

    Malone always starts b****ing this time of year...did the exact same thing last time. He'll be there, though, it's just him whining like always.

    Either him or Nowitzki, I dont think they would bring 2 players from the Mavs though.

    Hell, a lot of people thought the Mavs should have had three all-stars.

    One of the announcers was interviewing Malone after the Utah/Seattle game and Malone said he would play in the All-Star game since it might be his last.

    He also said that he doesnt really like the format of the picking of the starters for the All-Star game but he thought it was an honor to keep getting picked by the coaches year after since it made a statement about his game and it also meant that they still respected him.

    So no Stevie in the big BOYS all-star game this year.

    Malone will play, just give him some kleenex and sit his old a$$ on the pine.

    He is probably just mad that Stock didn't make it, and now he won't get the ball.
