Yeah, it is kind of crappy if you think of it like that. But the reality is that this team was built with McGrady in mind as a vital piece. I...
Last night, yes. Beat the Lakers (including Vujacic) in a playoff series? Probably not.
They're good enough to make it to the playoffs, but without McGrady, it will take a pretty big upset to knock out one of the top four seeds.
Good article about the game but also about the McGrady situation. Pretty much sums it up.
It looked to me like the Lakers made some good defensive changes in the final minutes of the game, and the Rockets were unable to adjust in time....
If a healthy McGrady played this game at Wafer's intensity level, Rockets would've won this game hands down.
McGrady is a phenomenal talent, and barring a trade, I think he must take a leadership role for this team to succeed. But in order to be an...
Thanks for the info, Doc. This is depressing yet - unfortunately - believable. My guess is that sadly, McGrady may actually believe this kind...
The Rockets haven't played close games where McGrady was not their go-to player. It was an unfamiliar situation and they panicked. But still,...
Deke!!
I don't disbelieve Aldridge, but I do question his source. Has this "extremely plugged-in person" heard Yao say specifically "I want McGrady...
Well, I guess we'll just have to wait two weeks to see where McGrady is at, physically and mentally. But if all these reports are indeed true,...
Spoken like a true Rockets fan.
If what you're saying is true, is the team ready to move on without McGrady? I don't mean necessarily trade him but just not expect much from him...
If he feels pain in his knee, enough to affect his game, then it should be considered an injury, no? The bigger question now seems to be about...
"Ooh baby...Gotta get me some Deke's Peaks." Hilarious! Mutombo is just what the Rockets' locker room needs right now. And thanks for the...
OK so if I understand this correctly, Adelman did NOT want McGrady to return when Battier or Artest was out. He preferred all three players to sit...
So it was really McGrady's idea to come back and play before he was ready? I can't understand what the logic of that decision was. Anyway, it's...
This is an important point IMO. Adelman's done a great job keeping Yao's minutes down despite all the lineup problems, and I hope this...
He could probably use some pointers from assistant coach Mutombo, as well.
