There's no doubt in my mind, that if Tmac was allowed to play, we would be a top 3 seed in the Western Conference. I'm gonna say around a record with 32+ wins right now.

I see no difference at all with him in or out. Ariza makes up any additonal loss we'd have when he was out before. with him in, we'd have less minutes to Budinger and Ariza which means more minutes of no defense from that same position with him playing.

Right now we would be looking for our 7th win of the season.

if t-mac is where he says he is, we'd be at around 3rd in the west,
if it is from what I observed, we'd be at around 6th

Here is a better but equally silly question: How many wins do you think we would have right now if JOEY DORSEY was in the line up to start the home stand?

How many wins would we have in the past 3 seasons, if T-mac was traded for Iggy or another player?

I don't believe we'd have won nearly so many games. The games we've won we've won by running. T-Mac didn't run and gun BEFORE microfracture sugery. He's always been a half court player. Plus, there is absolutely no evidence to suggest he's even an NBA quality player anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if his career is over.

A moot question - but I am amused by those who think it would be less.

T-mac would have given us a few more wins at least. It was only 2 years ago that he led a Yao-less team to a very high winning percentage with far less than we have today.

History says we'd win a lot more but that's not why he's not playing.

IN any case, I hope he does get moved so all this drama can end.

It depends on the type of player T-Mac is currently. From what we have seen and read/heard, T-Mac is not even close to the player he use to be, but is still trying to play the same half court game. Going by that T-Mac, I would say probably 5-6 less games, considering all he would do is stop our offense and let players score on the other end.

Based on how McGrady looked this season, you would be a fool to think that he would make a positive impact on the Rockets record-wise.

Based on how bad Ariza has been this season, you would be a fool to think that he would have a negative impact on the Rockets record-wise.

Unless you think McGrady's even worse. Which I do.
