    Yao usually doesn't look for many touches in the All-star games. I'd like to see him call for the ball, and go for MVP at least one year.

    It does make you wonder how Chris Paul went from being under 150,000 in week four to being up 500,000 votes over TMac in week five. That's 650,000 votes above and beyond the votes TMac recieved and it equals to nearly 30% of the total votes Chris recieved in just one week. Seems odd.

    I don't even want to think about how Bruce Bowen is 3rd among forwards ahead of Dirk, Anthony, Gasol, etc. If he had 70,000 more votes he'd be the starter! I seriously doubt most fans consider him a star, let alone vote for him.

    Too bad this isn't being investigated to prove there's something strange going on.

    In your haste to dismiss any TMac credit, you totally missed his point. Go back and read his post. He DID NOT claim that Paul was not deserving. He DID NOT blame anyone who voted for Paul over McGrady. He just claim that the NBA rigging the votes was bush league, which I totally agree.

    If they don't think players like McGrady should be there (which I think 95% of this board, including myself, believe), then they should change the system, rather than manipulate the vote counts.

    tinman, admit it. It's not always "facts" with you like you claim. Your glasses do have colors.

    Why would he? We all know whiners will rather support Chris Paul than their player. Votes for TMac are from NBA fans, more than from Houston fans.

    Well, you know.. TMac doesn't deserve it.

    Go to NYC and protest.
    I'm sure you can gather a huge crowd for this important issue.

    hahahaha, look at the number of votes that Bruce Bowen gets. And you are telling me there is no rigging?

    My point is there's only one guy we're sending.

    there was another poll with false information about who was going to the All Star game from the Rockets.
