I have never hated Amare before this alleged report. Yao is my ROY but I can accept different opinion too. However, if this report is true, I lost my respect for Amare because it is a really classless act.
That was why I was a little suprised when I saw it on NBA Action last Saturday. In that episode they had a segment on Kobe and Jordan, and another one on KG's MVP-like season. Just before they interviewed Amare about players' highlight of the season they also interviewed a couple of other players including KG. KG's highlight of the season was Carter's dunk over Ducan, Davis' dunk over Nash, and Amare's dunk over Kandi man. -G'day-
Nah... I doubt if race plays a role. We should be positive and respect people decisions. Unless it is obvious act like Shaq's mocking on Yao, I think we should stay away from racism card.
Remember when Steve and Elton "split" the vote? Can Stern perform slight-of-hand with who wins? Did a pro-Amare employee close to the voting leak the news so that it would force Stern not to do the same with Yao? Just wondering.
