    I didn't know if you all had read this from espn.com, but its talking about the all-star snubs and. I found it pretty neat and accurate .


    Steve Francis. He's utterly unguardable, puts up eye-popping statistics (19.1 points, 6.5 assists, 6.6 rebounds, 1.86 steals, .401 3P%, .876 FT%), and is single-handedly keeping the Rockets in playoff contention.

    No slight on Francis, but single-handedly? Like Iverson is single-handedly improving the 76rs.

    Why do they say stuff like single-handedly when several bad teams have guys with better stats? Marbury for instance? When they talk about NJ, they say that team's chemistry sucks, despite Marbury awesome statistics. Why can't they say this team has great chemistry for such a young ball club and Francis is a large part of that. Just like Orlando last year. This is about chemistry and everyone wanting to improve.

    give the coach and the team some credit.

    I think he was the most deserving player left out. I think karl malone and david robinson are the most (only) undeserving players going.

    Despite my hatred for Malone, he desservs to be in the All-Star game.

    Robinson on the other hand.....
