    Did Gaines say he will train in Houston? He and Lue can join T-Mac during the summer.

    If Gaines want to have any play time in the comming season, he'd better train with JVG or T-Mac during the summer.

    I know.

    I as a McGrady fan believe he's already better than Kobe talent-wise, but the fact that he hasn't accomplished the team success that Kobe definitely means that Kobe may infact be on another level.

    I love McGrady's confidence. I'd rather a guy say "when we win a championship" rather than "i don't know...we might - we might not". It's called Killer Instinct, and McGrady has it.

    So in the same token you are also saying YAO is taking the right approach when facing other centers?? I would rather YAO have confidence/killer instinct, not the sometimes timid game he has now…confidence is good, if you are talking about arrogance in Tracy you are wrong…see JORDAN A.I.AND SHAQ for that.

    Just to clarify once more, on 610 the day he held his press conference, he told Rich and Charlie that is WAS NOT his back that was injured, but his knee. His back developed soreness as a result of favoring his leg that was injured and that is when they decided to shut it down for the season.

    So, he doesn't have a bad back and had never had a back injury prior to last year. It is NOT a chronic injury.

    I thought the same way when i first saw his game in person, his game is almost unstoppable because of his height and quickness.

    cool. this is awesome seeing this one day after reading a stupid article claiming that T-mac is lazy so Houston isn't much improved after the trade.

    Go T-MAC!!! I think all that MVP chanting he got when he had his press conference really got to him. Way to go Houston fans. :D

    Who knows with T-mac putting in all of this work into his conditioning, it reminds of last season when B. Davis spent his entire off-season conditioning himself. Then, B. Davis had one of his best seasons last year with New Orleans.

    I only hope the same holds true for T-mac.:eek:

    I personally think he's already better than Kobe. Substitute him for Kobe in the Lakers runs, and I think they do just as good. I just hope his back holds up.
