    ALL-STAR STROKES: Denver-based artist Malcolm Farley has been busy painting images of NBA All-Stars, images that will be seen throughout the weekend. One of Farley's paintings, which will appear on posters, features Houston Rockets center Yao Ming dunking over Miami Heat center Shaquille O'Neal. Another painting captures O'Neal completing a baseline spin move against - who else? - his despised ex-Los Angeles Lakers teammate Kobe Bryant.

    Oh, no. I bet Shaq will be pissed after he sees the painting, and I think he will try to dunk on Yao in the all-star game. :)

    I wonder what that painting would be worth with Yao's and Shaq's autographs?

    I see a few things wrong with that picture.

    1. Yao has never jumped that high in his life.
    2. As high as he is off of the floor it looks as if the ball is barely over the rim.
    3. Yao's head is too small for his big body.
    4. Shaq appears to be as tall or taller than Yao.

    That said, I still like it.

    it's interesting to see their facial expression... yao looks like he's pissed and wants to rip someone's head off, shaq, on the other hand, looks like a nice, gentle guy.:D
