    easily yao, as for basketball, a team game.
    talking about 22 win thread? yao started it by cheering chemistry and tmac just run in and took over it. dont forget the context.

    tmac was out of any chemistry ever in his career. he has great skills and talent, but still not a good basketball player.

    Shame on you to put up this endless debate.
    Losers never learn from their failures to believe a first round virgin can save their asses.

    only people with Tracie's name as a tag would be. I have fun reading it.

    Why am I not tired of it? Because every game I realize we are the handicap. We give every team a 20mil handicap. Every time I hear OUR announcers say we could do so much better with a healthy tmac I remember.

    stop hating on dre and snoop dogg.

    driving a wedge between our fan base?

    there's only one fan base Rockets only fans, those other people don't count.

    why are you scared to choose? or are you on this thread just to insult me cause your jealousy makes you want to talk to Stephen A Smith?

    there's nothing wrong with being a realist, as long as you root for the Rockets.

    remember the first meeting with Lakers with Tmac/Ron/Yao?

    we got destroyed.

    At least in the games without Tmac, the games were close.

    The problem here is She-mac will be never ever be healthy.

    Maybe he would be healthy one day phisically, but he will never be healthy mentally forever.
    That's the biggest problem. When he was unlucky, he just gave up which is the biggest difference between him and Yao.

    Looking back, when the Rox sucked like hell last year, who lead this Rox drive back to the road, lead us a 7-2 winning recond, and who gave up already after a six-loss in a row, and took part in the 22-winning streak in the end after the Rox found back their groove???
    Obviouly, Yao is the one. :cool:

    However, I would wish Tmac good luck to the rest of his career, cuz he was kind of pity, so I wish him good luck, but all he can help his teams is NO PASS TO THE FIRST ROUND FOREVER.

    yes we all know the tmac that has played this year is the tmac that has played all the other years tinman. great observation. it's unfortunate that this year will erase alot of what tmac brought the past 4 years.

    I realize that tmac was much better in his earlier days with the Rockets, but even if he was healthy, this was just a wierd mix with Ron Artest and Yao.

    tmac needs the ball all the time to be effective, but that's the problem too.

    Ron may take bad shots, but he doesn't need the ball to be effective.

    the Shane Battier you see now taking clutch 3s, that's not the same dude with Tmac.

    U my man and all and at times u bring some good thought and history to those that might not be aware, but threads like this does nothing. U know we already have legions of only fans and this really only brings seperation even if u try to bring objectivity. If u say yao, you're his fan and if u say tracy, ur his fan. I always try to tell people to be rockets fans.

    Funny that no one complained about having a $14 million handicap the past two seasons.

    i would take Tmac on this one until yao go at PG shout" give me damn ball"

    Clearly, rules were changed, as you can see, it is really harder for yao to take over the game. A health Tmac, take 2005 for example, he can win a game by himself, while yao will never do it at this point.

    Our two stars, for some reasons, just don't have arrogance to light the crowd.
