It is festive celebration time in Houston, as the NBA 2006 All Stars Week-end approaches !!! It looks like EVERYTHING there revolves around one centrepiece: Yao Ming. Hope he can keep up his current momentum, bring his top A game, conquer this last Shaq mountain and be officially crowned MVP in the All Stars Game in his home territory.
Man......this "mysterious personal issue" must be bugging and bothering TMAC SO MUCH that he's missing all the fun of the 2006 NBA All Stars !!! PHOTO GALLERY

So Luther Head must have heeded to Yao Ming's advice and had enjoyed his rookie All Stars game tremandously. Luther Head scored 18 points to be joint top scorer for the rookies, which lost out 106 vs 96 to the Sophomores. Andre Iguodala is the MVP of this Rookie Challenge. http://www.nba.com/allstar2006/rookie_challenge/recap.html When asked by the reporters about his advice to Luther Head on how he should play his first ever All Stars game, Yao Ming said: "Just forget about defense. Go out and enjoy it. But please don't tell Jeff Van Gundy that I said so about no defense." PHOTO GALLERY The Rookies The Sophomores
cool pictures...the celebs (ice cube, bow wow, nelly) were wearing those unis for the celebrity game. they were playing classic unis vs our current ones.
So as the host, Yao Ming and TMAC greeted the All Stars, and started some shoot-around !!! Yao Ming even had a hair-cut to be in the All Stars !!
