    Sometimes I think you're eight years old, these analogies and posts are brutally childish.

    They also had home court advantage against the Utah Jazz and lost.

    Know you shouldn't post when your "very competent role players" list ends up with ONE player.

    Cause Yung-T doesn't like Harden.

    I love Harden. So much better than Tmac.

    That's your reply to someone asking why you only discuss McGrady right now? What?
    I don't even understand how you function in society, most of your replies don't make any sense and are completely out of context.

    This would feel so brutally stupid outside of an online forum.

    I've posted many times during the season in the GARM, have you?
    You can just use the search feature

    If you want Rockets fans McGrady should have won a playoff series, then you should create a fake championship ring for Tmac and tell he should have won a title

    TMac fans are way better than Lin fans. TMac fans are still around and cheering for the Rockets. Lin fans cheer for more playing time regardless of the team. If I'm wrong about that, it's on me. If TMac fans only cheer for TMac, it's on me.

    Anyone can get past the first round.

    Especially in 8 tries.

    Why can't we be all a Rockets family cheering for the good and sometimes call out the bad but not ad nauseum.

    In retrospect he had cojones saying that. Credit given.....he failed but he was crippled trying.

    That team did finally go past the first round when Tmac was sitting on his couch at home and rooting for the Lakers.

    Artest showed MeMac how to do it.

    Some Tracy Fan is still making excuses for his first round playoff exits and 20 playoff games with the Rockets.

    Zboy,

    Why are they in such denial? If James Harden get can blamed for his bad defense and horrible playoff games, why does Tracy get such endearing fans when he has not accomplished any team accomplishments?

    You saying I'm not objective? Just kidding, I know nobody in here is. Well actually the HOF for individuals in a team sport in which team performance does not carry much weight is kind of ironic isn't it? HOF should not just be for any player and it's not a logical fallacy. It makes sense that great players - HOF being the highest individual accolade - had a great impact on their teams, made teammates better and won when it mattered. This is all questionable with T-Mac. Very rational and logical to me. Yao should for example not have been in the HOF in my opinion, but I get why he's in; global impact, had a winning attitude and just a huge impact beyond the game.

    Certain players in this world join your team and leave it worse off for having been there. If it wasn't for those guys, we could easily be a big happy family.

    This may have already been said, not reading through 11 pages to find out, but when you post a poll, keep the voting options simple and straightforward. I want to vote but I wont because I don't want to "be with swyyguy".

    Short answer: Inferiority complex just like their idol MeMac

    Anyways, can't give a lengthy explanation right now. At the beach (Phi Phi Island in Thailand) right now and gotta get up early tomorrow. Wife and kids want to explore the Hong Islands Lagoon.

    Just dropping by to see if Ryan has been shipped out or not.
