can't have worded it any better. and a decent game by mcgrady tonight, i will give him that. but why adelman kept him so long late in the game is a myth to me.
Its cute that you have to praise a player for giving full effort. We should make one for scola and battier. Wait they actually give a damn and play every night like it matters
I beg to differ. TMac played hard by TSlack standards; by any other standards, he was a slacker. On defense, the guy is simply not existent (other than a couple of steals). He can't or doesn't want to defend. He doesn't move on offense unless he's getting the ball. The offense bogs down and we become one of the least efficient offenses in the NBA. I'm sorry, that's not effort.
Adelman left him in too long....it just seems like he is trying hard to get Tmac over the mental hump. But Tmac grimacing was not a good thing to see.....this team is in chaos. But once this season, just once, I would like to see Tmac rotate on D to help his teamates. DD
If he didn't keep Tracy we wouldn't have lost only by 8, belive me Why in the 1st half we were putting T-Mac in the positions to score and in the 2nd half he HAD TO give guys open dunks...Pathetic
Agreed. Tmac showed some effort and played kinda hard in the fourth, which is a big improvement because atleast he is now trying. His passes in the fourth qtr were great.
people still complaining about tmac.... always gets old fast he played a lot better tonight and it came to the direct effect of a lot more energy so Ill give him credit for ONE GAME btw this game was not lost because of tmac, and im not sure him shooting better would of made a difference in the outcome... the defense lost it.
I as a TMac supporter (but also critic as of late) like the fact that he countinued to throw the ball to Yao, even though Yao is in funk and lacks confidence right now. But I'm Rockets fan first, and as one I learned from the past years that Rockets chance at winning are only with TMac, even though he's 50%. Yao can't guide this team to a win. Ron Artest in the game hasn't changed much. You see people, TMac makes Chuck Hayes NBA player. Now that TMac is nonexistant, so is Chuck and many more..
Did anyone see that he actually ran back on defense when the Sixers were on fastbreak? You can tell he was running hard.
I saw that and now we know that he can at least try with this knee. And that is a knock on his play against Moon the other night against Raptors.
He had one good qrt and played the game with more ergency, give him that, it's a step in the right direction. But it was just one game, let's see what happens in a week or month. Same drama queen?, we'll see. Thanks McChump!
