sigh... ok let me put it this very simply, if TMac sucks so much, why cant Yao do better when TMac is hurt? Forget better, why cant we even crack .500 when he is not around?? when Yao is hurt, how come we do much better with TMac alone? When he is in the team we are a 50 win ballclub! Could that be a coincidence???? NO. The fact is he DOES make this team MUCH better.
And that's why you too, are only a fan, not a manager and members of this board are starting to tag you 'idiot'! I really need to learn how to use the ignore option...
Hope Yao refinds his determination and Guts again! His award for January seems to have gone to his head! Two poor games in a row. However so called Point Guard Alston and Tracy McG need instruction from the coach. During the game, I also noticed little coaching from our coaches and minimal substitutions at just the right time.
That turns out you waste too much time on things not happened yet. I would start pull match when Rockets want to trade Yao.
right on, don't worry its only YOFs who are bringing up hypothetical situations. Fact is we did beat good teams playing like this. For me, if TMac goes off like this, I don't care who we play, I like our chances
I'd rather it be the entire team but that's not possible when certain players have to take 25+ shots a game. Tonight we were fortunate that Tmac's shots were falling but they won't every night. Glad for the win at any rate. Seriously, TOFs are just as annoying as YOFs.
well, fans could be emotional, manager can not Feel free, hope that's the last time I saw you reply to my thread
You claimed trading Yao away would make Rox a Champion. You don't even bother to back it up? That's weak.
We can afford T-Mac dominate the ball once for a while. After all, he produced tonight and carried us, but if he does it every night, then we'd be all pulling our hairs out when his jumpers don't go in. Sooner or later they won't go in at one point. So it's all about T-Mac's own judgement and adjustment, when he absolutely feels it, he should dominate, when he doesn't, he needs to cool off on forcing jumpers. Hope he will lay off shooting long jumpers, drive hard to the basket, play hard defense in off nights, instead of shooting us out of a game. Go with the flow and he will be fine.
a win is a win, i'd take it any time. but in the past 2 games, we're not playing at a high level. yao somewhat got outplayed by bogut. mcgrady had his best game in a while. but the yao&mcgrady-don't-work-well-together syndrome continues under adelman. we won this game on mcgrady's hot shooting. no one else (maybe except for battier) played particularly well. and this bucks team puzzles me. granted i haven't seen them play that often, but even with redd not playing, they have a solid backcourt, bogut looks like a very good center to me. how in the weak east their record is so bad? p.s., yi doesn't look anything special to me the 2-3 times i've seen him play. honestly i wouldn't even trade landry for him.
Sir! you are incorrect and are quoting information from last season. This season says that the team did well while Tracy was out!!
Amare and Marion didn't win a ring under two time MVP Steve Nash, how will they definitely win a ring with sceond round virgin T-Mac???
Why I brother to back it up, are you offering me money to do it? Or do you think it is childish to prove people you are right, that's lack of confidence. Anyway, that is my opinion, big deal
You believe that if T-Mac is 2 for 12 in the first half he puts up 27 bad jumpshots for the game?? Last night he wasn't hitting and took a lot less shots. Go with the hot hand. Sheesh. Quit over analyzing. Rockets got 8 plus points from 6 players tonight.
haha I am not sure I would qualify as TOFs if I am just defending someone who played a great game! On the other hand if I was dissing on Yao after he played a great game because he took shots away from TMac? now thats a different story. Fact is, I said I would rather put my money on TMac's jumper than any other rockets makes me a TOF? You know you are talking about Hayes, Scola, Rafer, Battier and Mike James etc here, dont you?
Anyway, let's phrase that. T-Mac is back, Yao has been carried the team for a long time, especially those games Yao is sick and still have to beat Golden state, tough team. So the guy is tired, he would have his rest and go on later. As a fan, I would like to see Rocket wins, I don't care whether Yao is in the game or not. I truly believe we could get more if we trade Yao
Which he has done lately. Evidenced by last night taking far less shots, and even fewer of the jumpers off the dribble.
