don't worry vote Yi all you want he isn't going to be in the All-Star game it's going to be KG in the All-Star game because he I know most other boards aren't voting for Yi and for are voting for KG. I don't think Terry will be voted in by fans but I think he will be the player picked by coaches

I doubt Terry will be picked in by coaches.. the Mavs aren't good enough to have 2 all-stars and there's a lot of good guards in the west. Especially considering McGrady is wasting one of the guard spots. Kobe, McGrady, Paul, Roy and Parker will all probably get the nod before Terry.

Why would you engage in any sort of serious dialogue with her?

Even the Chinese boards? Other boards aren't the problem.... it's the Chinese. Our numbers can't match theirs so if you can't beat them, join them.

I wasn't taking about Chinese boards, who cares about them I was talking about American boards the smart people, heck you all know chinese aren't smart if they are voting for Yi, anyone voting Yi isn't smart or doesn't watch basketball at all.

Or simply wants to protest against the stupid voting system. But wait... why the hell I answer to your post?? Maybe I was too tired and didn't look who wrote that one... well, but it was obviously you, shame on me. I should have recognized it earlier. My lapse, folks. Sorry...

It's one thing to make negative comments on a player. It's another thing to make a negative comment on a race.

I have her on ignore, it would be just great if everyone else would as well. Or at least not quote her. It's frustrating that I know she is ignorant and will say something stupid and nothing will be done about it.

Its a proven fact that is not ban worthy, similar things have been said before and those posters are still here and not banned. What she said was very wrong, and to me she should be banned, but it would not be right to ban her for this and not the others who have said similar things. IMO

What did she say...that afghanistanians aren't basketball smart? Sounds about right to me.
Just like white people aren't buzkashi smart.

These have been out on the internet for a while now but here are the all-star unis:
Quote:
HIGH-TECH PROTECTION
Together, the jersey and shorts are 31% lighter than the typical NBA uniform. Before, layers of twill were sewn together, bogging down the garment. Now added elements, like conference names and player numbers, are bonded on with a heated glue. From a comfort standpoint, the jerseys are tighter fitting and the seams are heat welded, not sewn. That means better mobility and less abrasion for players inside the uniforms.
GRIPPER WAIST BAND
League rules state that jerseys must stay tucked in at all times. The gripper elastic waistband keeps the jersey in place, giving players one less thing to worry about "in the heat of battle."
BETTER VENTILATION
Through athlete testing, Adidas conducted sport-specific studies on the body's "heat zones" areas where players tend to sweat more. Strategically placed holes over these key areas help the guys stay drier longer. The Adidas bodymapping technology works in conjunction with its TECHFIT compression garments, which are worn underneath the uniforms to aid in improved performance, fast recovery, and less fatigue.
PHOENIX-INSPIRED DESIGN
The influence of this year's host city in the design is undeniable. The horizontal lines resemble Arizona's rock formations, while the progression of color (desert red for the West, sunset blue for the East) is emblematic of the legendary bird rising from the flames.

no, but he is better then Yi right now. I think Bosh should start but whatever at least a great player is starting I don't vote for people just on the Nets, I vote for people who I think should be in. and Bosh and KG were my two favorite players to start

Yeah that's weird...You'd think people in SA would be putting more effort into their other pro sports teams instead of just the spurs.
Oh, that's right...
