Here's another http://s2.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=E1910E015691D6F9115ECA0FE8D75089 BTW, I got a Kobe vs T-mac video also but it's mostly Kobe highlights because a Laker fan made it.
beyao... please refer back to the 2002-2003 season in LA when T-Mac was on his way to dropping nearly 30 points in the first half on Kobe...and Kobe "accidently" elbowed him in the back and took McGrady out of the game. Please - stop listening to what the experts say and watch the games.
That's EXACTLY what Ron Artest did to McGrady last season, but if that's all it takes to take Tracy out of the game the Rockets are in trouble, pretty soft IMO.
BTW - in that game, that was 1 of 2 shots T-Mac blocked on Kobe. He blocked his fadeaway twice in that game.
Ron did not elbow T-Mac in the back last season. Please identify which game it was please. McGrady played through injuries his entire career in Orlando. Do I need to send you tapes of the playoff series between Orlando and the Hornets where even Patrick Ewing was beating McGrady down the floor0...and he still managed to drop 30/5/5?
I don't remember the exact game and it wasn't a hit to the back more like a hard foul, but it did take him out of the game, he was tentative after it. Injuries most players would of kept quiet about. No, but I would like to have copies of those games to see Baron Davis destroy the Magic after Tracy said he was the best player in the series.
In the first game of the season the Magic and Pacers met up - McGrady was out with the FLU for like 3 games. In the 2nd game, the Magic won - and McGrady dropped over 20 points and 11 assist. In the 3rd game, the Magic lost but McGrady dropped 0ver 43 points. In the 4th game, it was near the end of the season where McGrady was out for the rest of the season. McGrady and Jermaine O'neal in the 2nd game bumped knees and McGrady went out for two minutes - came back, but no longer had the explosiveness to score - so he dished out assist. Ron Artest - known as the best perimeter defender in the league - has already made it known that the toughest player to guard in the league is McGrady. He wore T-Mac's own shoes during games because he said he's the only player in the league - Jordan's not allowed - that he respected enough to do that.
WOW! Now THAT'S a really good memory, but it was a hard foul that I remember, not a knee bump, maybe that 43 point game because I'm pretty sure the Magic lost that game. Now a few posts ago you said to stop listening to what experts say you may want to do the same thing with Ron Artest and the best perimeter defeder tag.
Here's the same T-Mac mix, hope this one works. http://www.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=78479B4E0816F5A9CE432AD263B389F2
Well - Artest is known as the best perimeter defender by experts - but I also believe he is as well. It would be different if I said that McGrady gets up for playing Artest, but then he only averaged 13 or so points in all of the matchups. I've watched every Magic/Laker game since T-Mac has been in Orlando...and if some people believe that Tracy doesn't get up for playing those games, then their expectations of what McGrady has to do is too high. In that same 2002-2003 season, in Orlando - Tracy and Kobe both dropped 38 points...yet, a lot of Kobe's points came in garbage time - and the Magic came away with the victory. I already mentioned the 20 point outbust McGrady had scoring 10 consecutive points in LA. Last season, Kobe was out for the game in Orlando - and the game came down to Tyronne Lue getting ripped by Derrick Fisher on the last play of the game. The game in LA, T-Mac had a great first half...where Kobe only had 1 point. Then...all of the sudden, using his Kobe powers (Which consist of floating through the first half to save all of his energy because he's playing with the most dominant player in the league)...he turns it on and has a great 4th quarter. The Magic would be completely blown out by 30 points if McGrady only had 1 point in the first half.
Yup, here are a couple of highlights in that game. http://s11.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=F36974362EF90253072B378AAEE0C9BF http://www.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=5ECD5E3D94B279E5B62AA14EED232489
here are alot of nba vids http://and14eva.narod.ru/ENG/NBA/Videos.html Including a big Tmac mix tape.
something else to note the lakers went on to win the game in OT but the game should have not gone to OT. on the last play of the game t-mac gets the ball with about 2 secs left and is fouled by shaq (shaq reaches in between his arms and grabs one arm) right in front of the ref and nothing is called. despite shaq holding him down tmac makes a miracle bank shot but it was after the buzzer, his shot was slowed down because of shaq holding on his arm but nothing was called at all . all in all expect tmac to not be getting like 30ppg next season but around 26-27 (not even jvg can hold down tmac natural scoring talent unless he benches him) and be a much more efficient player and see his fg%,ft%,assists,as/to ratio all go up while being a good if not great perimeter defender
hey.. that video showed tmac bullying eric snow.. maybe thats why eric snow wasnt a choice for the rox
