    Yao & Tracy < Yao & Ron

    Just want your opinions on who you guys think would be a better pair since we know this big 3 won't work.

    This is only a discussion not a hate thread, and this would be with both healthy and both being tradeable.

    Whatever, Artest will go and Tmac will stay and play for the next two years.

    Right now?
    Going forward?
    Hypothetical if all three are healthy and at their best?

    I'll assume this is which would you rather remain after Thursday's deadline.

    Precisely.

    If both were at their best and both could be traded easily this week would you rather hold on to McGrady or give Artest, Yao combo a shot?

    Yao & healthy T-mac absolutely.
    T-mac is the best passer for Yao imo.He can pass to Yao without any faking move or jumping also he has better vision and decision than any other players including Artest.

    But the problem is his defense,jumper had gone....so I have no idea about this poll.

    HOLLA!

    On da real, I really think that if there was anyway I would trade Tracy over Artest at this point for maybe a Mike Miller or some type of shooter.

    If you look at it that's all we really need. Low post we have Yao, scorer used to be Tracy now can be Ron, and Miller can run the outside. Perfect Lil Big 3.
    Unless we can find a better more healthier shooter.

    You just have to face it bro. Tracy isn't going anywhere. Ron is most likely to go because of his contract situation. When Mac is on he is on.

    Yao and Ron Artest by a mile, Tracy McGrady's injuries have hurt him, and they hurt him really bad. He has become a cancer to this team, due to the fact that the his entire game is based on having the ball in his hand. When he has the ball, everybody is just standing there and he is having an isolation or pick and roll everytime. That made me really mad, when JVG Was coaching because he made that offense way too predictable and the ball had never move.

    When Ron Artest and Yao play, the ball is moving, Artest doesn't have that much of an ego offensively anyways. Yao Ming gets the ball in his hands and that's what the Rockets need to do more often. If Yao scores over 20, this team is simply unbeatable. The Rockets are better without T-Mac this season and he needs to sit out for the rest of the season.
