Kobe wasnt the problem. it was the whole team's effortin the 2nd half. East was playing rather controlled bball while the west was WTF out there. i didnt mind how they setup shots for T-MAC because he was hitting most of the shots. plus he was the home boy.
on the other hand, i really wish the nba should ban YAO from playing in the all-star game. as much as i like him, he doesnt do shit out there. all he really did was run around the court. he wasnt willing to ask for ball. its sad that he's a starter for west.
