    but bulls do not shart though so that theory is out of the question.

    i think he meant to say bullfight in which case he should check out:

    www.ranchcardoso.biz/rcForum

    its a bullfighting forum.

    Lost respect for the league on this one. I never thought David Stern was as bad as people made him out to be. I never thought the draft lottery was rigged. But this little trend of late with votes just barely overtaking an undeserving player in the last minute just cant be that coincidental.

    I have faith the coaches will select him and let him play 48 minutes as the primary option.

    honestly that would be the greatest thing ever as a big F U to stern if they cared about the fan voting process...its not like nash wasnt going to be an all-star this year as a reserve

    but of course wont happen.

    i guess we'll have to wait till feb 19th to see how much McGrady really has left in the tank.


    i just want the get possible package back for him

    I don't buy it for a second that Nash all of a sudden made up thousands of votes.

    Rigged as expected...probably a good thing though. Now put Landry on the reserves!

    why are people keep saying stuff like this?

    the all star game is a popularity contest for the fans and nothing else. it's not about who the best players are. it's about which players the fans want to see. if those players are also the best - fine. if not, well, there are many awards for them after the season.

    also i don't like people going tinman and dividing nba fans by blaming everything on the chinese voters. they're fans like the rest of us.

    Yes, but this is not even about popularity. The complaint here now is not that McGrady was voted in, but that they believe Stern and his minions have rigged the result. I agree that the voting process has no integrity at all, has been like that for a long time now. That's why the ASG is meaningless and I haven't watched the game for years.

    My biggest beef with Stern is that he cares more about image than substance, marketing than integrity. I seriously believe that the NBA needs a reform from the top down.

    Put the tinfoil hats away, the gap was like 2700 votes, which is a minuscule amount of votes needed to pass tmac.

    but if the votes kept coming for T-mac the lead would stay the say. I voted for him and so did many others....have to break the system to fix it. :p

    No tmac's lead was decreasing ever since the first results came out. With each update, tmac's lead was smaller, so it makes sense that in the final update he was passed.

    I don't know if I would be happy seeing Tmac play in the allstar using the rockets jersey. But really, this is suspicious.

    I just don't really like the voting system. If Kobe or Lebron played very bad or got injured almost throughout half of the season, I bet they will still be starters

    You mean realistic fans that don't live in fantasy worlds? I'd like those fans too. If you want to keep believing in your theory then AI wouldn't be a starter. But look....AI is a starter, so that's a convenient fact that you like to ignore. :eek:
