Everyone struggles, and if you make the attempt to understand the player's situation it would be easier to swallow their recent play. For example, Rafer will not all of a sudden change from being a 38 percent career shooter, to 50 percent. He's a streaky shooter, and you should know that by now. So if he has a bad shooting night, there's no use of bashng him, because he will his fair share of good shooting nights as well, and he will probably end up averaging around 38 or 39 percent.

Anyway, the main point, the solution to every problem is not to trade whoever players are struggling, but to have other players step it up while that certain player is struggling. I'm sure that player is trying his best to come back to his usual form, and it obviously takes time to do so. If that player happens to be so valuable as to have so much of the team rest on his shoulders, and how he plays greatly affects the team, then expect some losses for the time being, but be patient for he will come around later on, and especially around playoff time when it's most important.

Sorry for the big lecture, but I just had to let it out.

I could care less about his injuries, although there's some doubt as to how bad his knee actually was.

What really troubles me is his refusal to play the offense. Yes, he may be trying but if you're trying to dig up a stump with a toothpick you're trying. That doesn't make you any less an idiot. And my question is how he could have been sitting the last two weeks, watching the rest of the Rockets pass the ball and run the motion offense and racking up wins, and then get back and still think it's a good idea to hang onto the ball instead of keeping it moving.

I don't care if he's moving like a gimp. If he passes and plays the offense I would be totally fine with the guy and understanding. But he is showing zero discipline in actually playing the offense and that's intolerable.

I was talking to T-Mac before the game and he said that he feels really good tonight. I am expecting a good game from McGrady, maybe 25, 6, and 6?
