Please don't ask Ron a stupid question that someone wouldn't ask Ron in his face. Please lets hope that wasn't a police siren in the background.
is ron back on? i really wanted to ask him a question. im on phone hold right now.... please take my call CD!
i would take it now, but i figured you want to wait and ask him, rather than me. I'm just not sure if he's going to be able to call back, I dont know if his phone died or what.
i just got back from bball practice, Ron is still possibly on? time for me to tune in and possibly call in
Lol. This Sazel guy is sounding stupid on air... Of course tmac wants to play... It's not like he makes these injuries happen. You can't expect him to play on a high ankle sprain. What an idiot.. Sorry.
well, i am him (Faisal) and i wasn't questioning his motive to play. it's just his mindset. he needs to suck it up. its been 4-5 years of the same drama. of course he still wants to play but he's got to understand that he's gotta play thru pain at some point. not everything is black and white. sorry if i offended you or anybody else.
Well I just think that all of you tmac haters are a bit overboard. Like tracy said himself, it's a serious knee injury. He wants to be on the floor with his team... But there are some things you just can't play with. Amare had to take a year off because of his knee. Same for countless others. You see players out all the time because of back spasms.. Peja S.. and I believe David West. It's not tracy's fault. He HAS been playing with pain. But after a while, it's useless, especially when he's not performing like he's used to. And he just happens to make a lot of money. He is a superstar.. but won't always perform like one, especially when injured. Give the guy a break. Understand what he's going through. Think. Stop criticizing.
Kobe is Kobe T-mac is T-mac Period. I respect your opinion but I wouldn't blame the guy who's knee looks like a cement mixer, I blame the Front office for giving him such a long contract. What can you say, It's unfortunate he can't be out there. Do you think he can just Suck it up? did you see the garbage dunk attempt from the other night? These's something wrong with him Physically. He can't play with one leg, we've seen it for the last 6 games. It's not a pinky finger it's a knee. He just needs to step aside and work on being something else like a rip hamilton type player ready to hit open shots.
i understand both of your points as they are legit and valid. however, if that's the case; he should have taken a longer leave of absence and not hurt the team in the meanwhile jacking up and ball stopping. even artest to a certain extent but he's only been here a year. what's t-mac's excuse? he quit in orlando and he's constantly quitting here. the hell with him and the hell with the rockets till he's here. he is eating up the payroll and screwing our chances to go deep in the playoffs. on top of that, he will cost adelman his job just like he did with van gundy. not to mention ron artest's big contract dreams. it's all on him and so far, he's done JACK SQUAT as a rocket. most overrated player in the history of the game. i hope he grows a backbone someday. its pathetic. im sorry if i went overboard. im just fed up with having my city being humiliated on a daily basis with his drama. absolutely pathetic and inexcusable. grow a pair t-mac!
Lol. I just lost all respect for you. Tmac has done wonders for Houston... Do you not remember the Dallas series? If not for Donaghy and bad calls, we had that series. He poured his heart out in both other playoff series vs Jazz. One of the greatest playoff performers in history. Get real bro. There's a reason so many people wear his jersey.. How old are you? You sound like you're 15 with that ignorant bull****.
at the end of the day, you are judged on your wins. what wonders are you referring to? people wear his jersey because they still associate him with that dunk off the backboard from the all star game in DC. he was a great player no doubt and can still be one. he's only 29 years old. but is it worth waiting on him? how long is it going to take. you sound like you're 15 with your t-mac loving temper tantrums. i don't even know who you are and did not call or reply to upset you. it's my opinions and a lot of ROCKETS fans will agree with me. let's just agree to disagree but once again, i can see your point of view. im sorry i don't feel the same way as you but please don't bring up his marketability in this argument though, this is an argument about incompetency. tc
But to say that he's done jack squat? Wow. That's stupid. Do you not remember 13 points in 33 seconds? Do you not remember how he was considered an MVP candidate last year during the streak? Do you not remember game 6 last season vs the Jazz? Even though the game was pretty much over, Tmac (with a bum shoulder AND knee), showed some heart when he scored 40+ the way he did. He could've given up, but he didn't wanna go down like a loser. You need to second guess yourself and your opinions. He's been the main scorer and playmaker the past 4 seasons... He's been THE GUY for Houston. Yao hasn't stepped up to that role until possibly now.
man you are bringing him these individual accomplishments that don't mean jack at the end of the day. yeah im sure he sold a lot of jerseys and shoes on houston's behalf. but he hasn't done jack when it comes to winning. you and i are arguing on two different subjects. you have your points and i have mine but we dont fit because we're both talking about two different things. yao has equal blame here as well.
