    You must have heard what Magic Johnson had to say. I do not believe it. For last season and two seasons before, Tmac and Yao played together quite well. There were so close to go over the hump. Now someone called it not working.
    Why no one of the TNT guys mention coach Adelman? Adelman has to go first.

    Because Magic likes and respects adelman, he has made positive comments about Rick many times on the show.

    Magic and Chuck advise a trade of Tmac

    Barkley and Magic just said that the Rockets should think about dealing either Yao or Tracy. They say that they have been given time to play together and shown that they will lose in the first round. We are 12-13 and soon to be 12-14 after tonight. At first I was pissed about the recommendation, but now I'm wondering if they have a point. Why does this team underperform so woefully? Something has to give. Any takes?

    Legendary players don't make great GM's. Magic doesn't have much credibility here.

    See Thomas, Isiah

    The only Chuck whose opinion on this matter counts wears #44 on the Rockets.

    McGrady's playmaking is going to be vital in the playoffs, it's something very few players in this league can offer. The problem, which has been with this team for 4 years now, is the lack of a bonafide 3rd option and role players that bring it every night.

    Even though TMac is playing like crap, we aren't going to get enough for a fragile wing player to offset the value he brings to this team when healthy. Might as well focus on adding role players with balls and consistency.

    They know the game, they see how the ball is moving now, magic said he see's them moving the ball more than he has seen the whole season with T-mac out.

    Why Adelman? JVG couldn't get them out of the first round. And now adelman inherits this retarted offense. This team is just Offensively challenged. No matter who is the coach.

    I agree with this opinion whole heartedly. I always get excited when we bring atheletic players in, but it never seems to pan out.

    Getting rid of adelman is a better choice.
