    Damn. Rafer is on fire and T-Mac starts driving. We just need to play some defense.

    Doesn't have be that many.

    I generally shoot pretty well in pickup games. There was a period that I would do 100 made shots after 30 min random shoot around 3 times a week, and kept this for 3-4 months and continued with 1-2 times a week for another half year. During that half year (i.e. after the initial 3-4 months), I was making shots like crazy. (well even before that I had a good shooting touch, generally speaking).

    I know the intensity in NBA games are totally different from pickup games, but the players are far more physically talanted than me, too. T-Mac has freaking talent, I don't see any reason that he can not improve his percentage.

    People may argue that his percentage this season overral is not bad. But for how many games he had been shooting around 35%? A member made a post and said it was 15+ games or something (it was about 2-3 weeks ago). That was just too inconsistant.

    It is better to have one consistently shoot around 45% than someone who give you 20% a game and then 70% another game and finally he gives you 45%.

    man, with his skillset, he could be a top 5 player ALL TIME if he was healthy, always motivated, and plays like it's a playoff game every night.

    we're a more balanced team. we don't need to look for yao or tmac all the time now. we're running more plays for rafer than anybody right now. that's the beauty of this team.

    no need to look for yao when we're executing offensively.

    Why Yao is totally ignored? At least he should touch the ball. Not a good offensive strategy at all.

    any PG on this team is gonna get 50 shots if he wanted it as our PF's never score over the last 10yrs and that there is so much focus on the C

    RA should rest Yao when Rafer was hot. Yao is useless is no one give him the ball.
