    Two things.

    First, what are you basing that on? That they are big names who had illustrious careers? I love how time imortilizes players and distorts facts. Did you konw Magic Johnson was an amazing 2,394-0 in the NBA!? He never lost! :eek: Not to mention Wilt Chamberlain cured Cancer.

    Second, you do realize your comparing McGrady to the NBA's greatest players of all time right? Right?

    Do me a favor and stop breathing.

    So then you agree with me that T-Mac is an extraordinary player who will go down as one of the game's best once it's all said and done?

    Awesome!

    I think it should be known by now that T-Mac is one of the best playoff performers in the league and probably steps his game up more than any other player. Unfortunately at the same time his teammates take an even bigger drop (cough*Head*cough) in the playoffs.

    Even in series he's criticized for he ends up stepping his game up. 07 against Jazz he stepped up with more pts, rebs, and asts despite shooting 39%. He also got to the line 57 times in 7 games, good for 8 attempts/game so he was getting to the line. Though I'm with the camp that felt he should have taken over in the final minutes rather than trusting his teammates.

    For the most part he still needs others to step up with him. Probably not even that, he just needs teammates to stay relatively the same. When 44% shooters start shooting 7% there's not much one can do, though if Head was Jordan's teammates he would've been beaten to a bloody pulp in the locker room.

    Yes, it's clearly always his teammates fault for the 30-foot heat checks he chunks up.

    No, it's always Rafer's fault for his teary teardrops. Haven't you learned that it's always Rafer's fault, after all these years here on this board?

    No, it is his fault that he has to be point guard and scorer for this team.

    it is his fault Bobby Jackson goes 3/15 in game 1

    it is his fault Yao goes down

    it is his fault that only four players score in the whole game...

    am I right?

    So a couple heatchecks cost him 7 playoff series throughout his career right?

    Which means that the other players around him (Gasp!!! Teammates!?!?!) have nothing to do with it-not even a little right??????


    God I luv you and your hating so much!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Once somebody acts like a troll over and over again it's just more fruitful to ignore them.

    This much is clear, given that your last twelve or so posts are dedicated to me.

    Really, I'm flattered. :)
