Ya lets complain about t-mac smiling thats def why we lost his 40 pts too what up with that. How about our role players are chumps and RA doesn't demand anything he just sits there. JVG did a lot more with a lot less talent. Also when t-mac smiles when were down is not a bad thing means hes not panicking u never see t-mac smile after a lost he looked pretty pissed at the end.
I just feel sorry for myself to keep wasting my time and money on watching the most talented however heartless basketball player only "doing his part".
its stupid to say that Tmac doesn't care or stuff because he smiles..... Reality check: no one playing in the nba likes losing, and everyone has a different attitude. Granted, he may not exhibit the same fire-iness like Kobe but I can guarantee you that neither he nor Yao likes losing. I didn't see this game but I checked out the play by play and I saw that Tmac accounted for almost all of the Rockets points in the 4th, whether it be by shooting it himself or assisting for others.
then i question if you watch NBA games or not. kobe always make that smirk after he makes 2-3 shots in a row, even if he's trailing. did u see the nets game? he made 2 3s in a row and they're still behind by 3 and u saw that smirk. u saw nash when he played us. he made a tough shot and he strolled back on D smiling at that tough shot. you MUST not play basketball. and y'all MUST be girls since y'all be analyzing the dumbest crap. stop taking those estrogen pills PLEASE pu$$ies.
then why did he cry on the bench v. the mavs and tried to cover it when the cameras zoomed in? care to explain?
Agreed. He was pretty poor on the defensive end tonight though. He did do his best offesnviely to kep us in the game though
I played college ball, and if you think Tracy is being a good leader out there, I am sincerely happy your not on any team of mine......
Kobe never smirks when there down big. If he gets it going and the lead is close then maybe you'll see him smirk or nod is hair. But if there losing badly he'll just just have a plain stare on his face.
It's for show. He forces himself to cry and even knows how to manipulate his voice to make it seem like he is about to cry
Talk? Tmac raised his hands at Shane Battier when Shane passed up a 3 pt shot that Tmac passed to him. Teammates need to pull some weight at some point. Everyone on the team, "Save us Tmac, we can't shoot, Yao can't get a call, or the ball, it's all on you."
and that's your response? some of the members on this board have some of the worst bball knowledge in the world. questioning a dude's smile to assess a player? call me a rookie, but trust me, most members here are worst than 3-4 year olds in terms of understanding the game of basketball.
You're right. If only he had scored 49 he would have been playing for the team. No one else needs to to step up. 40 is not enough from one player. It's up to T-Mac, as the leader, to magically make up that difference in a game. Otherwise, he'll never win. The rest of the team has no role to play when it comes down to this. I reiterate, 40 was not enough. Battier's 43 min 4 point performance though, helped us a lot. That's what we need to see. Or Rafer adding 5 of his own.
to further prove my point on the idiocy of "members" on this board: that's why you see threads/responses that make you question if they're sane. one game, they call yao the best. next game, they call them soft. one game they call tmac the best plaer in the world. next game, they call him garbage. one night they call RA the best coach and one who can adjust to beat phoenix. the next they say he's clueless and we should get JVG back. those same people who clamor for JVG's head last year and asking for him to be back. members can make threads, and these are the threads you see daily on this board. and yes, you "contributed" to the board makes you a member.
TMac is turning this Rockets into his old Orlando team, he's returning his old self. He's "taking over" the team, not the game. Tmac will again be the NBA scoring champion, but Rockets will go nowhere near playoff if he slips back to his old mindset and RA doesn't do his job and instill some discipline.
Maybe you should go to the lakers forum. you sound like a rockets hater and a kobe nutridder. good riddence to bad rubbish.
word? i guess you were one of the ones who turned off the TV when yao left or yi is not playing for the bucks
We all know that T-Mac is not a leader, to be a superstar player doesn't means you are a leader. Rafer, Chuck and Shane are NBA players and this MEAN that they have to make some points!!!
