    Yeah but who would trade away full year superstars?






    (Besides the celtics who got 3.)

    What an idiotic leap of thinking to believe that someone who criticizes Tmac is not a real Rocket fan. I'll go out on a limb and say that the vast majority of you Tmac apologists are too young to remember how EVERY guy on this team played during the Championship years or what a real superstar (Dream and Clyde) does night in and night out.

    Supporting one player regardless of how little effort he gives is the antithesis of supporting the TEAM.

    T-Mac is part of the team. So by me supporting T-Mac and applying the use of the transitive property, I support the team.

    Fact is the whole team has not been giving their full effort (for the exception of Scola) the past two games.

    If you are paid 20M a year, that means you need to find a way or create one to make it work. I don't care if we lose as long as we give 'em a good fight. Tmac didn't show that.

    Theres a ton of people that dont deserve their paycheck. But hey! Get what you can! Look at the freaking Boston Red Soxs and Oakland A's. They all get 40,000 just to head to japan to play baseball on top of what they already get paid! Gawd damm overpaid athletes.

    No,I don't blame Tmac, I can see he tried and tried very hard. The whole problem is he tried too hard, he try to carry the team on his back but this is really not the Alderlman's O and is not smart way to play. Every time when he try to get the ball at key post from Rafer. this is the time wrong O begain.
    Ball movement stopped, others stand and watch.

    Please review the tape: our win streak (not include last few games) and compare with our lose/frustate Yao streak). You can see it very clearly. Let Rafer handle the ball====== better ball movement and better running.

    Tmac do need to play at least in the level when he come back from injury, he hits high percent jumper, hit most FTs. I remember he practice his shots before the game. I don't know if he did this recently?

    you see how the lakers are playing? kobe is not even touching teh ball v. the jazz right now and everybody else is running the offense and getting shots.

    we need to get back to doing that. the role players need to come out and prove they are still very good players so teams can't pack it in v. tmac.

    You're right. Hakeem and Clyde just dogged it some nights, refused to play defense and moped on the court. :rolleyes:

    Don't diminish the effort of two true HOF players so you can feel better about riding the jock of a guy who doesn't want to earn his check every night.

    mcgrady sucked for at least the last 3 games. why can't his fans admit it? :confused: and i can take whatever reason or excuse you can come up with, other than "he's tired".

    just calling you out on your BS.... EVERY player that has ever played the game has off nights...lots of 'em. Hakeem did, Clyde did....SO does Kobe, lebron....get it?

    If you hate tmac, fine, have the balls to say so instead of hiding behind crappy arguments.

    Yes, every player has had "off nights" but that's not what I'm talking about and you know that. Don't compare a quitter to HOF players who had "off nights."

    Your quitter beat your HOF players twice this season. In fact, your quitter has a 22 winning streak, but none of your HOF players has. :eek:

    BTW, for those fans who admire Kobe or James so much, why don't you just watch their games and to be lakers' fans or cavs' fans?! :eek:

    Really? Tmac beat Dream and Clyde twice this season?

    Reading comprehension. Try it.

    More evidence that most of the Tmac apologists are still in middle school.

    Not to diminish the 22 game winning streak but I think 2 NBA championships are more important than any win streak in the regular season. And the Rockets as a team had the 22 winning streak, not just Tmac.

    Hey, I like Lebron, and I wouldn't turn down a Kobe coming to Houston, wait i might, but still, you can't honestly tell me that Tmac is better than those two? I don't believe it for a second, all i know is that Tmac fits with this team, I don't know if i could say the same of any other superstar.
