i haven't seen the voting as of yet, but wouldn't Yao Ming be a lock to be starting center in the west if at least half the chinese population cast their biased votes??
Michael should be in the starting lineup just because he is the greatest and this is his final nba season.

They don't let the fans vote for it for nothing... if the most populair players start, more people will watch. Would you like it if there would be some team picked by coaches that's so boring to watch that you turn off your tv?
That being said, Carter in my opinion doesn't deserve to start based on his play this season. Maybe he'll put on a strong performance when he returns (again).

At least half the American population cast their biased votes for Kobe Bryant, I dont see you mentioning that. Yao gets what he deserves, he's playing extremely well while adjusting the NBA games. Take a look at his last 8 games' stats and tell me those aren't all-star numbers. This not a Chinese thing, this is not an Asian thing, this is a basketball thing, Yao played well and people voted for him. He's being recognized as one of the best centers in the NBA. When Dirk Nowitzki made the all-star team, he got what he deserved, I dont see people made a big deal out of it because he's German. Yao is not even an all-star yet and you guys are making a big deal out of it. I mean how do you know all his votes came from the Chinese or Asians? People dont put down their names when they vote, people dont put down their nationality when they vote, it could be anybody. Americans, Africans, British, Pakistanis, Japanese, Chinese, anybody! How could you positively know those votes are only from the Chinese or Asians?
All I want to say is Yao Ming is playing well and he's going to get what he deserves whether he makes the all-star team or not.
