he has to make us a winning team first, then i'll consider it, depending on the record. so far he will be out a total of 5 weeks, that's mroe than 12 games, imo that's an injury prone year, and that is the LAST THING WE NEEDED. pile that on top of all the bullcrap this team is dealing right now, it could keep from getting to the playoffs and a good lottery pick.

Nope, I'm going to vote for my love destiny; Hayden Panettiere.

Yao will get in. He's one of the best centers there and we all know who China is voting for.

i go by who deserves it, not by "favorite player" I usually vote twice. Once when the ballot first comes out, then just b4 A/S game.

In saying this, I can remeber putting Scola, D. howard, and D.Rose on my 1st time around.

i think there should be 2 A/S Games. One voted exclusively by fans, and one by the league. Players can't be on both.

Not that it'll matter, of course. (Thank you, China)

But I'm writing in Isiah Rider at center - if only on the off chance someone will tell him he got 5 all-star votes.
