Well with Yao its different because its hard to find a dominant center in this league. Good guards and forwards are more common, they may not be of T-Mac's caliber, but if we can trade T-Mac for some good quality players and win would you take the risk? This is assuming that we are winning without T-Mac and we are inconsistent again when he comes back.
That wouldnt make sense, because he knew Orlando would suck. This was suppose to be the best rockets team in a decade, why would he bail out now? What is the deal with these doctors? They say something different everyday.
well mine is a sprained knee, T Mac got a sprained bone, all i'm saying is that hurting your knee is worst than it sounds, before i hurt mine i kinda didn't think it was much of a big deal. but honestly it's one of the scariest and most unpredictable injuries i've had.
it may not be the same reason, but maybe a lack of passion for the game right now for whatever reason?
We need better doctors. These doctors dont know anything. Before, they were saying that T-Mac was okay and he would miss next two games to just rest his knee. Now, it s three weeks. Mannnn.... cant wait anymore for T-Mac to comeback.
Any teams with their 20 millions super star player sitting on the bench unable to play, the teams will struggle mightily. So let the flaming party begin for the coming 2008! Let's flame Yao to play soft and unable to lift the team to victory. Let's flame Rafer for the bricks he builds in January. Let's flame Francis for out of shape. Let's flame Hayes for unable to shoot. Let's flame Shane for missing open 3pointer. Let's flame Scola for those stupid fouls. Let's burn Les alive for firing JVG..........
oh no no! i'm sorry, i confussed you man, my bad, i mean i sprained my knee, as in a ligament, which is totally different than T Macs injury, all i'm saying that it's really not fair for people to be calling Mac a "p*ssy" and and stuff like that if they've never experienced an similar injury.
Calm down he might even play against Boston. It all depends on how he feels. And who is right? Keith Jones or Tmac?
T-mac needs to stay put as long as it's needed, and hopefully he can come back healthy and motivated ... and join a winning team.
People usually judge people from the past, something like you need a resume to get the job. Unfortunately, T-Mac has the history of quitting on Toronto and Orando, especially his last season at Orando. You can't blame on fans being hard on him comparing Yao and SF3, sorry.
I will belive him again when : 1. His FT over 80%. (he has ability to do it, right?) 2. Show more D on the court. (he can do it right?) 3. Hit a buzzer jumper. (he did not do this for a long time, right?) 4. After P&R with Yao pass a little more to Yao (he can do it , right?) I even don't dear to wish he can do that 35s again.(that time make me his fan and always try to find some excuse for him). We blame him hard, why? Cause we know he has all talent to do it but.....
I think that T-Mac shouldnt wait a lot before coming back cuz it will be too late like the 2005-2006 season. Hope that he comes back soon. That injury is getting more serious day after day. More that he rest , more that his injury gets worse. He should comeback because his injury will get worse.
Did spurs fan call Duncun a baby and a quitter when he took two weeks off to rest his bruised knee? C'mon, this is ridiculous.
actually he has never hit a buzzer beater for the win. AND TO ALL THE PPL WHO KEEP ON TELLING ME 13 IN 35.. THERE WAS 1.6 SECONDS LEFT AND TONY PARKER THREW A HALFCOURT SHOT AND THEN THE BUZZER SOUNDED

You're kidding, right? The Rockets have some of the finest medical team on their staff. Not ALL doctors are perfect. How many times have we seen a false diagnosis for cancer? And here, we're talking about a bruised knee bone.
How about that game VS Mavs He hit a jumper after Yao screen for him? Oh yes, not buzzer.. but these are really Winning Jumper for us. I did not see this kind of play from him for a long time.
