So I was off, he was still the highest paid Rocket. So I owe you some cheese cake factory. Never said Yao wasn't part of that team. Vince Young won a championship, everyone knows that.
Then where are your "Yao failed in all playoffs" posts? Confused because you only mention McGrady when talking about playoff failures.
Yao had success though in one series compared to none for McGrady. I'm telling you the truth! Yao only played for one team, you don't have to dig other team's records to show that.
he was part of those failures too, doesn't change Tmac's legacy. But Yao stayed loyal to the team and eventually he found success and Rockets fans rejoiced. YungT I admire your fire and desire as a poster, it's Kobe like, most other posters would have quit like McGrady!
I guess one 2nd round is success in your book, nice to see you have high expectations for Yao. T-Mac on the other hand would only be a success if he wins the WCF or a title, why is that? Is it because you think...T-Mac was the far better and promising player? *tinman faints*
you used the word "if"!! expectations for tmac on the rockets were higher than the real results. I never said I disliked Tmac. I just think he deserves everything he gets. his money, his boos, his playoff record, his criticism, etc
Oh pick me pick me! Ron Artest. Impossible to tell who else could have, but I suspect guys like Joe Johnson, Manu Ginobli, Caron Butler etc. would have been more effective. I didn't post here back then (posted on PSD), but I supported trading Mac all the way back in 2007. I don't think I've ever disliked another Rocket more (besides for the obvious like Pippen etc.)
Damn, I am sad. I loved watching tmac play, he is the one who got me interested in playing the sport. I always loved the Rockets, but I didn't play the game really until he became a Rocket. I remember arguing about trading Steve Francis in 9th grade and when we got Tmac I started hooping on the reg. It's a shame he couldn't put all of his talent on the court and win a ring. He will go down as one of the greatest players to effectively achieve nothing. : ( Good luck in your future endeavors, Mr. Mac.
Artest&Yao plus superscrubs achieve more than one of the playoff all-time best stat guys in T-Mac with Yao and superscrubs? Elaborate please.

Now simply ignoring your Tinmac posts is like playing Quitten? You find all the reasons to degrade one player even more than he did it himself. Being biased is one thing, going overboard is another. Yao and Tracy were a tandem, get over it. They were formed by the management from Trade Day 1 by your OWN MANAGEMENT. They had limited success like the whole front office. McGrady played 6 seasons here, the most of his career. Talking about facts.
