Wow... you have opened my eyes and made me see so clearly now! RA's ego decided to do what's BEST FOR HIS TEAM rather than ONE INDIVIDUAL PLAYER.. i guess he should get fired for this. RA's ego decided to develop his 2nd, 3rd year players who are playing meaningful minutes for the first time in their careers so they can make some noise next year when Yao's back... i guess he should get fired for this. RA's ego has led this team...with 40+ppg sidelined...to a winning record up until this point.. I guess he should be fired for this. And players LOVE to play for RA's ego... i guess he should be fired for this too. I think you may have gotten a bit too to' up tonight..
You really don't get it bro. People have repeated that but I will say it again. Let me ask you a question. What's the most important characteristic in a say women? you would probably say her looks because you could care less about what makes people or in this case a team special. I would enjoy a 1 point win by a team of young, scrappy, undersized players rather than a blowout where Tracy scores 50. It's a matter of earning it and Tracy has never earned anything. he's the sad example of talent and no heart.
flipped just go to a knicks forums and you can talk about how good tmac played tonight and watch old videos of him in the 2nd round.. oh wait..
great response waytookrzy079. unfortunately it's going to go over the heads of the RA haters and t-mac fan boys. they are unable to posses any type logic whatsoever.
I think you forget that he's had another 2 months of rehabbing and getting the knee stronger.. Clearly what you saw today isnt what we saw in December. But it all comes back to that fact that the Rockets just dont wanna move on with him in their futures... If you're not down with that.. then just jump on NY's bandwagon and jump off ours..
How did McGrady "deserve" better? While I am sure everyone on this site would agree that he did some special things for the Rockets' franchise, the fact is, he was a player coming back from MAJOR SURGERY! You don't just throw someone out there and assume that they can do what they did before the surgery. McGrady had also shown the team that he made his own decisions aside from the interest of the TEAM by electing to have the surgery in the first place--without consulting them. Before that, there was also the infamous Toronto game...
T-Terminator would have definitely saved the day. He never got the chance. T-mac for life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He'll be back, I know the rockets will miss him. ----------------------------------------------------- START THIS CHANT AT THE NEXT GAME: BRING BACK MAC BRING BACK MAC BRING BACK MAC
Sorry buddy....but i think you and Flipped are the only ones in this one. Everyone else seems to be pretty satisfied with where this team is currently and where this team is headed in the future.
we lost tonight b/c of defense. yao/deke/or haywood would have gotten us the win. tmac wouldn't help us in this game b/c we freakin' scored 115 points.
good, you can stop posting here too, cause clutchfans is for rockets fans, and we never really cared about the knicks. buy yourself a walt fraiser jersey.. oh wait.. tmac fans don't care about team history.. sorry
Get back to me when Yao is back on the bench with inju- oh wait he already is. Well I know for a fact that when Yao comes back he'll be an unstoppable force, he's going to be a man on a mission then he'll get injured again after about 3-5 games.
Tonight's game from Mac is what I've been waiting to see for quite some time. He is still a very skilled player but his gifts have certainly eroded considerably. I know that he can still get better as did Stoudemire over time, but I think that the guy's pretty slow at this point. Martin legitimately looks like a step up in terms of how he can move and his shooting ability. Tonight sucked for him, no doubt, but over time I think that you'll come to like him and realize that this team is probably better with Martin. This is nothing bad about Mac though, I'm elated to see him doing well. I hope that Landry does better and better too.
