    That was obvious during a West practice session Saturday. Kobe Bryant spent time talking with Stojakovic, and Phoenix teammates Stephon Marbury and Shawn Marion shared a laugh with Houston center Yao Ming.

    At first, Marion didn't appear to understand what Yao was saying. After it was repeated a couple of times, Marion nodded and laughed loudly, then pulled Marbury into the conversation.

    Yao Ming: It's not even close (with the mock voice of Stephon "I'm an All-Star" Marbury).

    :D

    He could've been joking about Marbury's crossover early in the season that put Yao on the floor.

    "Francis never passes me the ball," says Yao. -- Marion and Marbury chuckle in agreement.:D :) :D

    you're half right about that. In a short interview today, Francis was asked, "The All-Star game is every point guard's dream. Are you looking forward to passing to all these big men" Francis replied "well Yao already dominates, so I'll be feeding Duncan, Garnett, and the other guys. I'll take my shots last. That's the job of the point guard in the All Star game. Get everyone else their shots in the first 3 quarters and I'll get mine in the last."
