No doubt we are better off with Tmac. But everyone is expecting it to be much much much better with him being there. Unfortuately, they are all disappointed.

It IS about their record because they said the team is not much better without T-mac as it is with him...that is a blatant lie, and all stats prove that.

According to 82games, 78% of T-Mac's FGA are jumpshots compared to 75% for Kobe...basically no difference.

Stop hating.

Always felt the same way, that Kobe's as much a jump shooter as anyone.

Going by the same "feel", I'd think Kobe's shots are a foot- foot and a half closer on average than McGrady's

And McGrady's 22% drives are marshmallow softer than Kobe's more rugged 25% drives...But McGrady's a much better passer

As that stats with Bron showed, the Cavs also move the ball better without Bron. That is what happens when you get rid of a superstar swingman...doesn't make the offense better.

They have no choice when LeBron's not in the game. That doesn't mean that they can make up for the loss of offensive firepower. The Rockets on the other hand are running an offense that's designed to get open looks, so movement away from the ball and ball movement are critical.

The Rockets operate, as seen in the last few games, more efficienctly with this roster when they run through T-mac in the high pick and roll. The team, as a result, has had an increase of offense and overall team assists.

You just hold your breath and pray when the Cavs get an open look at the 3.

Love it how we lull our opponents to sleep. No reason to wake up a sleeping giant in Lebron.. just cruise to a boring, old victory. I'll take it

This game was over before it began. The Cavs and Eastern Conf. are garbage.
