168:"In first balloting returns announced Thursday, McGrady, who wants to play but hasn't yet logged a second this season while recovering from knee surgery, is amazingly second in the West at guard behind the Lakers' Kobe Bryant.

Well, flags are useful here to show the diversity of the NBA, which in recent years have drawn more and more international players and audience. I agree that it is an oversimplification to label Kaman as German, but still we got to adhere to the MOS, which says that the flag needs to represent the
