    3's can't carry us the whole game.

    i'd like to see some PnR, maybe a backdoor screen.

    u want him to get those last 2 shots? at least when u shadow him, you make him pump fake and ish like that and since he's not getting calls, its better.

    no one on that team can guard him with zero help.

    it's like people don't realize that tmac will settle for the jumper and that he's not the world's greatest jump shooter. just guard him straight up and try to make him beat you with 40. most likely he can't do it. at least not efficiently enough.

    just as i post that the rockets need more inside scores they get to the rim 3 straight times.

    nice work!

    Looks like that was the wake up call this team needed.

    But yeah, I'm really surprised Landry didn't throw it down... :confused:

    Landry has no lift. Coach needs to sit him.

    it's obvious. it might take him a while. he was WIDE OPEN and wouldn't even dunk. a hesitant landry = not what we need.

    Shane's great but doesn't everyone notice how fluid our offense gets when tmac plays SF.

    If Landry is not 100% in the playoffs, we will be roadkill regardless of which team we play. We can NOT afford anyone being less than 100% if we expect to win any games, let alone a series against quality teams in the West.

    luther is doing an excellent job of driving in.

    he's usually very effective when he does that, but for some reason it's few and far between.

    Now we are attacking. I haven't seen that for long. Tracy looks like old Mac from Orlando. He is attacking dunking, making plays for other guys.

    I really like that, but Portland's big guys are scoring too many points on us. Gotta change it.

    Relax everyone, Today we are winning.
    Mcgrady is known to play a good game once every 3-4 games.

    Today its the good game turn after he sucked for like 5.

    Why do people give up so easily?

    The man's hasn't healed completely yet. And even when he isn't 100% healed, he is still as explosive as ever.

    Jeeze what kinda fans do we have these days.

    We should bring in Harris again, I like that Scolandriss combation.

    There is plenty of time for him to recover.
