    As I added later T-Mac shouldn't be given a pass for lack of effort.

    T-Mac's obviously got problems but so did the whole team last night. T-Mac is and should be accountable but I gotta agree that the whole T-Mac blame is getting a bit out of hand.

    I dont see it as quitting, i see it as playing like everyone else did that night. Part of the reason Artest was brought was to hold the team together during the injuries. He hasn't done anything.

    Hahahahahaha. Oh, man. Your logic boggles my mind, Tracy. That's like OJ Simpson saying that it was Nicole Brown's fault for being at home, or else he couldn't have killed her.
    Maybe if you stopped posting on GARM and actually practiced, you wouldn't be complete trash.

    Youre right. So artest let them have 2 points on that play.

    We still lost by 18 going by that score. Where was grady?

    King,

    When the other players see TMac quitting, they get disgusted, and their effort is affected.

    It is a "WTF is he doing" kind of thing.

    And the other team can see it to......Tmac is to blame, if he doesn't quit these last few games, the team wins......

    They are all looking around and going...WTF...TMac...come on....

    And Rafer is subtly calling him out.......the Organization called him out, the fans are calling him out.

    Yet, he fails to respond......hey maybe 99.99% of us are wrong...huh?

    If he doesn't want the blame, give back the money, endorsements and All-Star votes. Stop saying it's on you.

    If you want to play like everyone else, get the same pay as everyone else.

    He has struggled, but he plays hard, and doesn't quit, there is a big difference...but apparently you fail to see that.

    Where was everybody else at? Yao had one of the most lopsided matchups ever and he didnt produce.

    You fail to see as a team, they couldnt get the job done. With Tmac's lack of effort, why wasnt he benched? Why didnt any of the other people who came in for step up? 1 guy last night proved he should be starting right now. It wasnt any of our "big 3".

    Yeah, he did, but was it good enough to get us the win?

    If McGrady does anything at all maybe it is.

    Anybody can see the lost last night was NOT on McGrady alone.

    What has left everybody so discussed, and is probably confusing the issue is his effort, or lack of.

    Was Yao's performance last night enough to get us the win even with tmac not doing anything.
