Who'sNumber1 or something like that... He said Gooden was better than Ming, and that The Magic would tear up the ROckets... What an idiot
Great players don't have records like this. Geez, the guy has decent players around him, and he plays in the East. Gooden and Howard are good players. They even had one of the better coaches in the league. It's starting to look like McGrady is severely overrated.
you have a point there. if he doesn't get this team togheter he isn't as good as i thought he would be. maybe he is tired of basketbal, and he will just play but with no heart. the players are decent. like i said but they re roleplayers. Maybe the zone stopped Mcgrady. if the magic finish very low he is overrated in my book
i look at this at another angle...the magic are trying to win the number one lottery pick..so they can pick a 7-foot center...ha ha ha ha....it's the ingredients everytime wants...a superstar guard and a 7 foot center
Guess I'll have to open up the Kobe-TMac argument again, but as TheFreak said, Orlando's lineup isn't horrible. Now that I think of it, when Shaq was out last year, the Lakers 3-9 record (and I dare anyone to say that lineup was better than Orlando's current one) was rather impressive. Sure Kobe jacked up a bunch, but at least he wanted to win, also averaged eight dimes and eight boards. In short, if Kobe was on that team, I'm sure he would do better than 1-20.
It is difficult to argue the Kobe vs. Mcgrady here because Kobe knew he had Shaq coming back. Kobe always wanted to be better than "big brother" and what better way to do that then take a bunch of shots and try to score as many points as possible while trying to lead the team to victory because of Kobes competitive nature. I do however have to question Mcgradys drive. Great players overcome all types of adversity and come out on top. This is the difference between good and great. Jordan, Olajuwon, Shaq and Duncan have all shown this in recent memory. But you do have to feel for Mcgrady. Losing is contagious. You start losing and sometimes you become accustomed to it. You start holding your head down and not care. Not caring is especially easy when your gauranteed millions of dollars.
DAMN its just down hill for the Magic, i wonder how long they can keep this up before making a trade?
Wow, Magic on the verge of ending their streak. And against the Suns - I love it! Penny's got a nice stat line. Maybe we should consider acquiring him.
Magic are going to beat the Suns! Frank Johnson decides to get thrown out of the game at the end...I think his coaching days are up.
Did anyone else hear the post game comments of T-Mac? "I came out and help carry these guys. It was MY energy, MY leadership, I helped these guys..." Good god man. Get over yourself. You had a good solid game 16/11/9 , and that was about it.
