    Thank you Barkley. YOU ARE AN IDIOT!!!

    Tmac is the 3rd best perimeter player in the NBA behind Kobe & Lebron.

    I wonder if Charles is one of those guys who intentionally piss fans off so they get more ratings

    10-15 talent?

    You either don't watch the games or don't like T-Mac. You've got to be kidding me. Coasting as he is, he's near the top of his position.

    We all knew if the Rockets win, they gonna use that excuse. If Rockets had just won by 2, i can see the importance.but they won in a blow out. i dont know if Dirk would have changed the result

    I meant in the whole NBA. I love Tmac and the guy is playing amazing, especially since the all star break, but i dont think i could say he is a top 10 player in the NBA anymore.

    On nights like this, yes, he is. However over the course of the season i couldn't say he is.

    From talent-wise, I think Tmac is the best!

    as long as he's DEFENDED by the opposition like he's a top 5 player, who cares :eek:

    notice barkely finally brought up a good point where avery doubled tmac as the ball comes to him and yet he didn't do that v. kobe.

    i'm not saying tmac is better than kobe b/c he's not. but if he's defended like he's the best player in the world, we don't care.

    I believe the reason for that is the Lakers are such a superior passing team, and they always have good offensive players on the court. With the Rockets, the book on them is you make the role players beat you. But this team is so confident right now, other guys are finally capable of capitalizing when they're left open.

    Even the TNT production crew put together a montage rippin on Charles.

    And Charles is a good sport about it. :D

    Even though they say outlandish things, it's just part of having fun, keepin it real. They take it as well as they dish it, so it's all good.

    Easily the best pre-game/halftime/postgame show in any sport.

    I don't know how to say this, but if you were going to start a team right now, yes, Tracy McGrady wouldn't be very high on the list but that's because you're taking in age, durability, health, etc. into the equation.

    If you want just pure talent, I think T-Mac ranks right up there with the best of them. I don't want to say anything because T-Mac hasn't made it out of the first round, and this is probably the last time T-Mac will ever have to try on his own (which is good) so I will wait and see how he plays.

    I agree that he doesn't bring it every night, but just wait until the playoffs. I am.

    You know he can light it up whenever he wants, but this team ball thing really seems to work so he's bought in and we're rollin' 17 FAT.

    He means lead-wise. A OPTION for us is better with Yao. B Option (comes out after A) is better for T-Mac. That's what he saying. Nothing to do with grading the player. :)

    Actually, the "I'd be heartbroken" line was said sarcastically.
