T-Mac in a first round six or seven game series will just not last. The intensity level and physicality gets cranked up a few more notches compared to the regular season. He can't attack the basket anymore, which used to be one of his strengths and one of the things this team used to feed off of. Unless his back gets healthy in the next few weeks, it may be best to pull the plug and start to inconspicuously go for the full tank job.
