That the Big Three have each scored at least 20 points. I kid you not. Look it up if you want. ...This team can be so much better, it truly is scary to contemplate about it.
None of the Celtics big 3 averages 20ppg. just saying. side note: Yao Ming is 24.5 ppg, 11rb on .600 FG% for the month of the December.
Our BIG 3 played like they should. I tell you, I love the way McGrady played tonight. He only looked for his shot in the flow or on the break. i can live with the pullup 3 in transition and Artest off the bench is gonna be great. it gives us a completely different look like Ginobili off the bench does for the spurs. Great win tonight. I was impressed.
For the record, all three have played 15 games together. That means so far, 6% of their games have led to 20-point games for each, a statistical trend that can only go up given the talent of the players in question.
If they all can keep it up,I doubt any other teams in the league not named Celts,Fakers,Cavs could easily put us away or even could not stand a chance at winning. Well done though,T-Mac's better now than the first 15 games in the season.Since he came back from his sore knee rest,he's been as good as anybody else and move quickly on both ends and hustle and play hard to get to the basket or draw the foul.Good work.Just keep it up Tracy! It's the most ecstatic game I've ever seen since the Spurs game in which we blew out 'em. ,Oh btw,Altanta game in which we came from behind and won,that's nasty though. Good job,just keep on moving on.
LOL,Battier is still fighting his way back to 100% himself. I don't think he's Big 3 of our rockets this season,maybe he was,last season.But right now with Ron back united with the Rox,I'll put him ahead of Shane.
Tonight was the first game of the big "four", Tmac, Artest, Yao, and Battier. But with Rafer out, we still haven't played a game with all our primary players.
Big 5 or 6 anyone? I know it's still early, but Brooks is definitely a legit 20+ point threat. He can be a very effectively scorer as his development continues. Also Scola, sure he may suck a lot once in a while, but when he is hot he is a 20+ threat as well.
I can't wait till once playoff time comes... If Tmac, Yao and Artest all get theirs like they're supposed to and we have our decent to great role players step up on any given night we're going to be unstoppable. Out of Brooks, Alston, Landry, Scola, Battier if even 2 out of those 5 guys step up for 15+ it's going to be trouble for our opponents. Can't forget the impact Barry will make come playoff time either. This team most reminds me of the Celtics of last year which is quite obvious but it also reminds me a lot of the 2nd championship run. Dream and Drexler always got theirs. Then we had a combo of Sam Cassell, Horry, Kenny the Jet and Mario step up huge on random nights. We finally have the talent, roster, pieces (save for maybe one more big man Deke please comeback). what have you to get it done. Tonight was great proof of that. Continue building chemistry. Stay humble, stay hungry.
