He had a few bad FT shooting games before the injury. So far this season, the ration of good games to bad games for TMAC is 60/40.
Dude, the refs did nothing in this game, realistically they were a non factor. NOBODY, and I mean NOBODY wanted the ball near the end. Rafer even turned up on an open three! At the end of the game the Rockets didn't really fight up the middle, they settled for sh!tty jump shots (Tmac included) and really had no presence in this game. We were only in it so long because the Heat are just that bad.
No Playmaker, thats the reason we lost today, Scola, Tmac and Yao all had to force shots because our PG only look for their own shots. We have two chances. 1 go for a playmaker after december. 2 Play with a PG that can actually make those points (AKA SFrancis).
Give me a break. he had 3 points after halftime. he went 1-8 and missed 4 free throws. thats soft. period.
Tmac is hurting the team right now. If he is injured, I prefer him to sit out. The season is still young but we'd better not to dig too deep a hole for ourselves.
This game is not TMAC or Yao or Rick Adelman's fault. I will include Scola as well in the group. The problem is that our shooters are missing their shots. Rafer has lost his confidence and it looks to have rubbed off on Mike James and the rest of the shooters. There are many open shots. They are missing.
I see the problem is still point guard for the 4th quater loss. If we don't change to a better point guard, this will happen all the season. Tmac played 41+ min. He is too tired by the end of game.
THEN WHY NOT GIVE THE BALL TO YAO IN THE LOW POST??!?!?!?!? Adelman is TOTALLY to blame for this loss. Lack of defense, Yao not getting post touches. Both of those are COMPLETELY on Adelman. It made it that much worse that JVG was commentating. Neither of these would have happened when JVG was coach. Adelman's scheme is bankrupt. Putting Yao at the elbow is a total failure. He needs to be back in the low post, especially when McGrady is shooting poorly. Not even bothering to mention how d-whistle gets calls and then Yao gets hacked and no call....
Im getting worried here: -No D -We arent hitting open shots -We let the worse shooting/scoring team n the NBA do whatever they want -McGrady was ubber SOFT tonight -Yao was poorly officiated -Rafer/Mike James combo was a disaster -Luther Head looks clueless out their, its really sad to see how much confidence he has lost since last yr -Scola can score , but he is a liability out their -Ditto for CHuck Hayes, except he is a offensive liability.
4th, our G only give YAO 1 CHANGE to attack. our G only give theone who 8/13 in this game 1 CHANGE to attack thay know noting about what thay are doing.
i don't get it..4-5 minutes left when yao is out on the court..why dont we give him the ball..im tired of seeing tmac running around and passing it off to head, james, rafer..got dammit..yao only touch the ball once..what kind of discipline and play calling is this? all adelman does is stand there and stare into some ****
Let's turn this into a positive and get Francis and Snyder in the rotation. Alston's confidence is shot and he wasn't that talented to begin with. Bonzi is hurt and Head too often looks clueless..if his shot isn't falling he's hopeless.
Will all due respects to what you said ENOUGH of that thinking: "___ is not the problem" "___ can't do ___ but does other things that dont show up" No SOMETHING'S the problem here.
What's the excuse now?? We just lost to a terrible team. No, we didn't let this one slip...they BEAT US. We can't win against top teams. Fine. We get beat by crappy teams....unacceptable. WE are going nowhere this season. Francis...help.
The Heat deserves the win. Wade & Shaq were exceptionnal. Best game of the season by far for them. We're 6-7, under .500 and 6 losses in a row. Tomorrow, we need a win
The only pitbull we had was JVG, he was the only one that gave a **** about winning, even that is the saddest statement when the coach would be the only one to stick up for the team and show focus on being better, even now he is gone. Who wants to win, NO One! our players are freakin losers all the way from the top to the bottom. When your super stars don't give a rats ass about being champions then that says something about the team. Beaten by a crappy Heat team, nah that means nothing to these losers, I'm sorry for the rookies and Scola, these guys will soon join the rest of this squad in having the loser, indifference mentality. Yeah, we wanna be champions, . . . . yeah right.
Man we suck Dont blame it on McGrady for all you idiots who are. Everyone has a bad game. We need someone who can STEP UP when he has a bad game. I dont know what it is. Our offense looks terrible. Defense is ok. I guess it is the coach. We need Francis more than ever right now. This officiating is completly pitiful. Two and one calls one Wade where NO ONE EVEN TOUCHED HIM. But im not blaming the game on that. We just plain suck.
