    Hah, I am right 96.7% of the time, the other 3.3% is the exception that proves the rule.

    I am just not afraid to put my opinion out there.......and.....uh....get hammered with it later.

    Dan Langhi...cough cough.

    Being a visionary is tough work....

    ;)

    I am glad for both Tmac and the Rockets that this is kicking off...they will both find out soon enough if it will work....I agree with whomever said earlier they are just getting Tmac some reps now so people will be used to playing with him if/when he does come back.

    Nice to see that he is progressing.


    One thing; They should not hurry like last time. He should be 100% before coming back.

    This conversation only makes sense in the context of McGrady going to Adelmorey and telling them he's ready. It's a contract year and he's coming back if he can talk the Rockets into letting him do it.

    Not at all. I've been getting League Pass for years and have watched Earl Watson many times. He's a decent player but he definitely takes his share of ill-advised shots, esp. considering the fact that he's not a good shooter (which I think is one of the reasons Lowry has been compared to him in the past). Watson is an athletic dynamo that can do a little bit of everything and proved that at times when given the chance to start but I definitely think Lowry is already a better player. The only difference is Lowry has yet to get the chance to show what he can do on a regular basis.

    Lol. My bad. It was late, and I was apparently a wee bit tired after work.

    I sometimes wish "chucker" would show up as "*******". I don't even know where that came from (must be a regional or brand new thing, 'cause I never heard it growing up playin ball), but it's bantied about as much as "BB IQ" or (on this board) "point forward".

    Can we talk about something else...like the BackCourt problem in Atlanta.

    Joe Johnson
    Jamal Crawford
    Mike Bibby
    Maurice Evans
    Juan Dixon and others

    Just not enough mintues...I always wanted to see Jamal Crawford come to Houston and light it up...I do not know contracts but they have log jam and some guys are not going to suit up every night. So my question to you guys " Can you see Morey make a trade for Crawford" I do not know how to post so I'm asking this question on here.

    Jamal Crawford is not going to back Joe Johnson cause to me they are the same player.

    Please give feedback

    Trading Battier for Crawford would be a really a good thing for both team. Atlanta will get a veteran forward who is good defensivly and it will also solve the minute problem that the guards (1 and 2) will be facing in A-town.

    If we get Crawford, he will play the 2 he is a excellent ball handler and scorer and I think will complemente well Brooks, Ariza and Scola.

    A.) R.A. - is just nipping the T-mac thing in the butt early. His game in / game out routine really messed up rotations.

    B.) Everyone wants to see T-mac back- R.A. more than anyone right now.

    C.) In order to run the offense R.A. is planing to run, he knows t-mac cannot be unable or lazy (mentally) while executing plays.

    Am I right?

    i dont mind the words from rick adelman, i am just glad t-mac is 100% this time around. About the article, they said something about where the rockets practiced that it was far removed from any regular nba court, i mean like do yall know anything about this court they played on?

    He will make it better for them cause starting Ariza & Battier makes us scoring r****ded Real Talk..So I think Morey should look into this ASAP or at least trying to trade Battier & Landry for Crawford and Williams..Preciiate the feedback

    I guess we have to wait and see 2morrow when the Rockets play the Spurs.... what we look like

    My questions vs. Spurs are

    1) Can JT and Chase show us something cause I didn't see too much of these guys college games or Summer League

    2) Can our defensive minded team score enough

    3) Can D. Andersen contribute the way that Scola contributed in his first year
