    Basically Yao faked him under the basket... and as Yao was going up, he grabbed Yao to avoid the layup.

    Nothing really.

    All west players are pissed by DH. When he couldn't dedend Yao and had to foul, all west players came to congrat Yao!

    I was cracking up on the second one... maybe he shouldn't shoot them anymore. lol.

    I know he can make it but the second one was wayyy off.

    Since those consecutive moves were some really good ones, first baseline spinned off D.Ho, then Dreameasque (sp??) under-the-basket fake. Howard was owned on that one. He had no choice but to foul Yao in order to stop him.

    It's an all-star game, he should have just let him finish it off.

    yeah howard definitely should have let yao finish the move. if you're not going to play any defense, then just grabbing the guy in an all-star game is pretty weak. let him finish and get the dunk and the highlight.

    man the west's big men have sucked. yao/duncan/boozer/dirk haven't finished anything and aren't dominating the boards either. and seemingly every time nash, paul, or iverson have a layup they pull back, look for a pass and then throw it away in an effort to not look selfish. whereas the east guards are just scoring.

    i know it doesn't matter but i'm sick of the west losing this game so much (5 of the last 7 i think).

    What an insult to Yao. Inside out is the only type of ball he can play and they won't let him.

    does the west not know ray allen can shoot? i mean get in the same zip code as him at least, especially after he's hit a few.

    and dirk never seems to miss wide open jumpers like this against us.

    Ray freakin' Allen...I don't know if I've ever seen a purer shooter in NBA history.
