Yao Ming, leading the All-Star in voting: Not only has his numbers got worse from the previous year, but his team is having an extremely hard time winning with him. His FG %, FT%, rebounding, blocking, and assist dropped. He is also turning the ball over more than 3 times per game, the only category he seems to be leading all Centers in. Even though his performance is decreasing, his popularity just seems to keep rising as he leads all NBA players in all-star voting, for the third season. It is astonishing to see a guy at 7 “6” do the things he does, but it is only so long before questioning if we all are over exaggerating his talents and possibly his potential. Even L. James and A. Stoudemire are playing beyond their expectations.
