    he meant that if the rockets didnt have tmac they're probably 10th or 11th best in the west. with tmac the rockets are probably gonna be 8th or at best 7th best in the west.

    so the team isnt THAT much better with him, like they should be.

    What could you not believe? Kenny reiterated what i said earlier when t-mac was out. We aren't signifigantly worse with T-Mac out, and we aren't sigificantly better with T-Mac in. We're still a good team without T-Mac, so we should be much better wth him, but we're not. Thats 100% truth.

    The media (especially the big companies) only go for the dramatic and most appealing stories. Who cares about the average, boring old Joes like the Rockets :rolleyes:
    Oh well, we don't need the attention-just wait until we make some noise in the playoffs (PS Tmac-keep your mouth shut from now on)

    And now the question arises: could you be much better after a trade?

    Their point is that the Rockets are as good as they going to get, and it's not enough.

    You guys should have watched enough of TNT halftime shows to realize they talk negatively about every team except the Spurs mainly. That's how its going to be till someone beats the SPurszzzz.

    btw im really disappointed in how we're playing with t-mac. when he was out we had great ball movement, rafer was penetrating and everyone was contributing. now with t-mac we've reverted back to iso'ing and not much ball movement. i've come to realize t-mac's a ball stopper.

    11-42 entering this season without Mac, team has a 65% winning percentage with him and Yao playing together.

    Basically I think that's just a load of bull.

    Well I was watching Kobe today and he plays pretty much the same way as Tmac so why does the Lakers look like they have good ball movement?

    Answer: Because they have shooters that dont defer and can make baskets.

    i agree. but hes getting paid so much that the team cant afford to add a 3rd or 4th scorer.

    plus you never know when he's going to play or not. its difficult for a tea to constantly have to adjust like that. i mean we're not talking about chuck hayes missing games every other weak. this is arguably the main focal point of our offensive gameplan.

    that should tell you and the rest of the nba world that it is our supporting cast which is not consistent. they just don't hit shots when he is playing and they are all wide open shots. they need to add a mike miller of some sort to the roster look at who they are saying better than us utah (boozer williams korver okur milsap harpring kerlinko) LA (bynum kobe fisher farmer arezia gasol lamar walton turiaf Radmanovic Vujacic ) PHOX (oneal nash bell diaw Barbosa hill Stoudemire ) they all have a better supporting cast a whole lot better

    Tmac should stay on the bench. He gave it a go which I really commend, but he can't play tonight. I hope all you haters realize tmac isn't that soft.
