    I think Zach Lowe and David THorpe's podcast today was pretty spot on

    T-Mac is absolutely right. If you disagree, you are being a homer.

    To round the team off they should have brought in Javal McGee to talk about the team's low basketball IQ.

    T-Mac dropping knowledge. This is on the players not the coaching. Coaches don't make open shots.

    I still don't get why TMac is forever a quitter and Mad Max is the warrior who never gives up. If you want to forgive Maxwell, that's healthy, but don't pretend that TMac did anything near as bad. Whatever.

    T-Mac actually is correct. That is not bashing but a popular observation shared by a lot of our guys here.

    I don't know if Harden is having some personal issues or the fame is getting to him or both.

    Not competing and the lack of effort got McHale fired. That is all on the players.

    I like tinman a lot. He's contributed more to this community than I ever have. Just don't really get this one item. Won't debate it any though, as I think my observation is irrefutable.

    Don't ever compare the first round virgin to James Harden again. Most players would've quit tonight with the way our season has gone & how he was struggling with his shot badly but he stuck with it, played the entire 2nd half and dragged us back into the game before closing it out in OT.

    I could understand Kobe, Duncan or LeBron criticizing James but T-Mac? LOL.

    Because you saw the Clutch City documentary and you knew that Mad Max got his pride hurt when they traded for Clyde, he lost his starting job.

    The difference between Maxwell and Tmac.

    Maxwell's biggest problem was PRIDE

    Tmac's biggest problem was EGO

    They are not the same

    These people don't watch Rockets basketball day in and day out. They don't see how the offense has ridiculously bad spacing, how players just stand around on offensive sets, how players switch on EVERYTHING on defense which becomes easy for offenses to predict and exploit. They don't see how they take record breaking amount of three pointers even though they only have a couple of above average shooters. That is ALL COACHING!
