fine your right, my mistake, for some reason i thought 9 was our number. But what does t-mac have to do with losing? 2 nights in a row with 1 near tripple double and another with one before the 4ourth? Wow, T-mac sucks trade him, his 3 point percentage is the best of his career, and so is his free throws. Trade t-mac he improved his weaknesses to compensate for his knee. Trade t-mac for showing effort. TRADE HIM *Sarcasm BTW* This guy must have had knee surgery, cuz he can critisize someone who has scoliosis and swollen fu*ked up knee. Teach me to be immortal surgery man like you, i had it in my wrist from baseball and it cost me a scoloarship. I practiced and tried to recover every day, but never happend. I must be weak. OH teach me to become the mighty recover man such as you. You must know.
Haha, I'll concede the scoliosis but not the knee (btw, I agree with you that McGrady has conditions that have screwed up his career - that was my point - I said he was fragile not lazy): Kobe got knee surgery before the 06-07 season. He ended up missing only 5 games that year on his way to his 2nd straight scoring title. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2597017 Read the story, it sounds almost exactly like McGrady's situation, including the timing of the surgery and when he was expected to return. He was also, like McGrady, playing with the pain the year before (when he averaged over 35 ppg and won his first scoring title). His numbers in 06-07 (right after surgery and a year after rape): 31.6 ppg (46.3 FG%), 5.7 rpg, 5.4 apg and a scoring title We all need to stop making excuses for McGrady. His body is broken down and wasn't built to last 10+ years in this league. The back, the knees, etc...
Rockets have too many players not willing to suck it up. Always an excuse as to why they didn't get it done. We understand that you guys are trying to play throught injuries. Just play through them and tell everyone that your trying. The inability of Tmac to finish a wide open breakaway with a dunk instead of a missed jumper sums up where Tmac is at. Tmac and Battier, please go sit down somewhere until you can come back and play 4 games in 5 nights. Until that time, don't suit up. I'm tired of execuses.
Dude, y do you compare an average all star to one of the top 5 greatest players of all time?!!!! Wow, if you concede with scoliosis, do you even know what it means? For a basketball athlete, T-mac shouldn't even be into his fifth year!!!!!! DO YOU UNDERSTAND!!?????? You will probably say yes, but you don't fully understand the pain it causes a 6' 8" athlete that requires constant running, breaks and pivits. HE's a great player, and some peoples bodies aren't built like others "I.E. KOBIE." So stop the comparison and take him for what he is. I don't know what you do, but i'm sure it's not as strenuous as playing with athletes that are an average height of 6'6" to 6'8". As said before T-mac has improved on his fundamentals which compensate for his breaking to the basket, free throws and 3pt's are better than ever. Take what you can get and be happy, T-mac isn't the best but when come playoffs and everyonce in a while he can play when he """"""""""""NEEDS""""""""" to, any other time he just does not want to hurt himself and go hard until the end the season. I don't care what he does, I just care about the play offs, and if he is the play off T-mac that we all know, we will go very, very far.
Oh and one more thing, Sorry for the double post but if i was a playoff unhopefull fan and saw forums like this i would drop dead. We have the second best record in our conference as of now and we are complaining!!!!!!!!! OMG. The only word that comes to mind is ungreatful. *spelled wrong* anyways, Count your blessings people. As said before, we could be the grizzlies who have all of rudy gay, O.J. mayo and other fine prospects and still suck a major nut. Same with the clippers and the talent they have. WOW PEOPLE, talk to those fans and see how frustrated they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE!!!!!
