    Not bad, but Tmac does not play as hard as Manu, so it would not work giving him the same treatment.

    geez stfu already. Manu plays 30 minutes a game!! TMac playing only 30 minutes a night would be Michael Jordan compared to Manu. Man the blind hate for TMac is getting out of hand. This is NBA, even Kobe cannot win alone.

    btw great article Fritz. You hit it right on the head about TMac's talent which is his blessing and his curse. He will always have his share of haters.

    TMac at 30-35 min a game would make him more effective over the course of a game and a season. I agree with that assessment, especially as he gets older. But in order for that to happen, we need more offense from Battier (which probably won't happen) and more offense from their backups (which can't be Luther Head).

    Can't agree with more!

    Kobe’s not pass first round when Shaq left so far!

    LOL - do you even watch the games? Tmac was outstanding attacking the basket and taking on contact in the FIRST HALF....after half time he settled for jumpers.....

    Manu...well, he attacks all game long....I would trade Tmac for Manu so fast it would make your head spin.....too bad the Spurs wouldn't.

    You guys who think Tmac is better than Manu at this stage in his career are delusional.

    I don't think Pop would buy that even if we include Head in the package.

    Delusional is a very diplomatic. It's either basketball idiot or WWF fan.

    Hmmmm, maybe you are right, they are just learning the game and can't spot a guy who is clutch over one who is not.

    you can't say that man comon

    manu will never be what mcgrady can be

    just put the doubles and triples teams that mcgrady gets to ginobili

    then again, mcgrady is a better passer, better IQ, better defender, better rebounder


    ginobili,parker and now i would do it but now san antonio would not do it lol

    That guy would have kept attacking the basket all night long and taken on the contact instead of avoiding it.....

    We need that guy back !!

    McGrady is a unique talent, but he is fools gold, hit him and he folds up like a cheap tent.

    The first half he was NAILS last night, driving to the hole taking on contact, finishing, playing defense.

    But for some odd reason (maybe fatigue) he just settled in the 2nd half.....

    I just think Tmac is missing something.......maybe that something is Yao.

    :D
