All nicknames for CP3 in China. Keep that in mind, China. Oh, yeah, you too Houston. There’s also this guy in Phoenix called Steve Nash. Don’t know what his nickname is in China, but I can tell you this much: he’s better this year than Tracy McGrady. For those of you that don’t already know, the NBA released the first tallies of All-Star votes. Naturally, Kobe was the highest rated Western Guard. But second? Tracy McGrady. Tracy fucking McGrady.
People, Steve Nash is having a stellar year; and Chris Paul, provided he is healthy from here out, is still CP3, the best point guard in the League (who after having a miserable 15-14 night in Minnesota, is hailed by box-score watchers as having a great night. Um, I guess. I mean, he hit the game winner, but other than that, was not his usual brilliant self; but even half of CP is better than your point guard). Point?
STOP VOTING FOR TRACY MCGRADY.
Maybe it’s ignorant to blame China, but really, are people in Houston that insane to actually vote for a guy who has yet to play a fucking game all year? It’s not that the Chinese are natually not as with it, but at least they are a half a world away and more likely to vote for the few players they have national ties to. Plus if only 10% of people in each country are dumb enough to think McGrady should be even on the ballot, well, there are at least four times as many of such idiots in China, based on population figures.
So listen, did I say it yet? STOP VOTING FOR TRACY MCGRADY. Seriously, I’m going to go all “Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back” on people and track you down by your votes and beat your head in.

“Yes…”

Grief Merchant!
Oh, wait, that wasn’t actually from China, I guess. It was from this: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/GTAS-comics-Thy-Name-Forge-of-Destiny-has-spo?urn=nba,137866 It’s still amazing though.
I have nothing to say about McGrady. I’ve said it all. Oh! Except that I redid the ShitList to start fresh for the new season. But I should have known never to take McGrady off it. It was an error. It has been corrected.
I’m living in Houston this year. I can say nobody I’ve talked to here misses him.
@Mark, is anybody there embarrassed about him being #2 vote getter?
I was pretty sure it wasn’t Houston. It doesn’t appear they want him back. Even the team and coaches don’t.
Stormsurge: Haha. I’m not tallying up votes or anything, so I don’t know. They should be embarrassed though.
ticktock: That’s what I was implying. A 112% hunch that it’s China putting Tracy on the map. I’d like to see how Yao Ming would have done had he been on the ballot. Leading vote getter, anybody?
It’s the media feeding all the McGrady crap …and the Chinese support Mcgrady all because he’s on same team as Yao Ming… but i don’t believe it’s the CHINESE but more the media crap that is always being fed.
