I remember this guy from Syracuse. He was a STAR. He was the McGrady of Syracuse. He is EXACTLY what they needed. I'm going to go flood the Olympiakos fan boards about how COACH PINI GERSHON IS RUINING G-MAC'S CAREER FIRE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!! SF
LOL! I like it... I also like when we (TAMU) held him to negative 7 points on 4% shooting in the tourney to send his ass out.
he is already in the the D--league...the bakersfield jam i think....he was released a while ago.........
That's a common misconception about McNamara. He never shot above 40% from the field or from 3-pt range. He played with a ton of heart and seemed to have a knack for being clutch when it counted the most but outside of those intangibles he was a 6'1"ish tweener guard without a position, a consistent shot or ability to run an offense on an NBA level. Add to that his average overall quickness and footspeed and shortcomings on the defensive end and you have the makings of a player that doesn't really belong in the NBA. Compare McNamara to a player he had a similar role to in college like Steve Blake and it's not even close.
So you are tellin me when the Rox beat the Spurs in 95 you didnt tell ur Spurs buddies "WEEEEEE beat yall"? Come on now... McNamara better pray to god I dont have to guard him and shut him down.
This is exactly correct. I watched quite a few games where G-Mac missed the game winner. He was really a tough, hard-nosed player, but wasn't really even an elite college player.
Dude! even though I think you're kind of arrogant, you always managed to make me laugh with your comedy... you must have a lot of free time, what do you do?
bwahahaha, speak of the devil: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/chris_mannix/01/23/mcnamara/index.html
Yeah, I went to Syracuse when "The Pride of Scranton" was playing and in my eyes he was never an elite college guard. Very tough and smart, but never possessed the skill level to play in the NBA. He just had some amazing shooting performances though, and was ridiculous in there run to the Big East Championship a few years ago. V-Span does look like McGrady compared to McNamara, horrible comparison.
