    doesn't look like one.. but T-Mac played better D in today's game... maybe Artest's words fueled him...

    keep it up Artest :)

    That's pretty disrespectful of McGrady to put Alston ahead of Artest when saying who the leaders of the team are.

    He just meant it was on everyone to step up... not that specific people had to do it

    People are going to blow this out of proportion. Adelman said the same thing to in an interview. "stop finger pointing." Just play togetehr as a team and compete. Mcgrady is saying the same thing. I think he played pretty well tonight. He had a couple of bad turnovers and he didnt get to the line, but overall he played a good team game.

    Haha true..

    But do any of you guys think Tmac was backing off from the "responsibility" of being the leader/franchise player?

    It doesn't exactly seem like he's EMBRACING the role. Maybe it's just how I interpreted it. =/ Well good win today and well played by the Rockets, including Tmac!

    the criticisms on tracy may be valid, but tracy's right. you got something to say to another man and he's your teammate, say it to his face. bring him aside and talk with him.

    you don't say to some random reporter like rafer and ron have done.

    and adelman said the same things tonight after the game in regards to this, echoing tracy.

    well he did step up his defense tonight so he's just trying to show i lead by example. that's all tracy can do. he's not a motivator or anything.

    In your native language, I'm guessing "disrespectful" means "accurate"? I'm hoping that's what you meant.
