Harsh, but AWESOME talk. Someone needs to light a fire under his butt. I'm glad to see Adelman will no longer tolerate him doggin' it.
Certainly the sensitive T-Mac will cripple and quit after hearing these quotes from Adelman right? Oh wait, he reiterated exactly what Adelman said. So much for being harsh.
Yeah, 'cause he's obviously been doggin' it since he had the surgery. We need to get his fat ass in the gym!
Most people dont even start walking within 7 months after micro surgery. so mcgrady has done an incridible job thus far,but you dont put him into to thr rigiours of the nba this early no matter how far ahead of scheduel he is. there being cautios
That's what I think as well. They are gonna take that easy. For example, last practice he ran for 2 minutes, so today if he feels good he will run 3 minutes. They will take it very slow but it may end up him being completly ready at the end of preseason. He must be doing very well on practicies if the team clread him to practice. Remember, at first they were saying he was not gonna practice even a seond till november 23rd. So that's an improvement.
7 months seems to be over-exaggerated from what I know about the recovery process at least. Most doctors recommend that you stay on crutches for 6-8 weeks and then start slowly putting weight onto your leg. I'm not sure about full fledged walking but I would approximate anywhere after those 6-8 weeks once the joint surface is able to re-grow somewhat... then again, I'm not a doctor and it's just my opinion.
You are definitely one the better posters around here but you need to stop comparing Lowry to Earl Watson. That comparison was made by some scouts in the past but I think it's outdated at this point. Lowry is one of the best defensive PGs in the game and while Watson is a Grade A chucker, Lowry rarely settles for bad, contested outside shots. Lowry draws fouls at an elite level and plays a much more physical game than Watson at both ends of the floor.
Not going to derail brooks, but I never that was the comparison. That's just who I see when I lowry play. For the record,I like lowry and watson. Thing is with both since they're reluctant scorers, u need play finishers. That's why lowry played well with wafer and landry last yr. He would work well in philly,ny,phoe, and places like that.
BrooksBall: I think you're confusing Earl Watson with someone else (maybe Boykins?). Watson is FAR from a "chucker"...much closer to the Eric Snow than the Mike James. On topic, good job by Adelman. That should've been the approach from Day 1 he took the Rox head coaching position. Players should NEVER be allowed to make personnel decisions of ANY type, regardless of their status.
Verse,he was being fujnny. You've been long enough and heard the words chucker and cancer all too often. Dude said Monte Ellis was a chucker despite having a high fg%, but if its someone like Durant,he's the next big thing or great player. You knoww how it goes.,
well i am just glad he is practicing. He progressed way to much from his rehab to just sit out of practice until Nov 23. i thought that was a lil too cautious. I dont care how he starts to practice with the team, i am just glad that he is practicing with the team, and we still have like what two more months to decide whether he can play games, we will see.
im curious to see what tmac looks like out there practicing with the team. i hope it is nothing close to what KG looks like. KG looks absolutely ridiculous out there limping and jumping around. I cant believe they would put him on the floor like that.
