    people don't understand the fact that with any other threats out there the defense can bring whoever they want at tmac. no one can guard tmac 1 on 1 out there

    But he is still going to the rack, that's good.

    Meh, Rockets are known for their close first quarter. We had a lot of 10+ wins that started off with a close first quarter.

    is anyone else annoyed when an announcer says stuff like 'the rockets normally a very good rebounding team, but giving up alot tonight'? yeah big surprise, that's what happens when you lose your best center and have to play a 41 yr old and a 6'6 undersized power forward as your center rotation.

    :rolleyes: I think all the tmac haters have come out of hibernation now that the streak is over. People like this rook and Rowdie Brandon were nearly
    non-existent in the streak.

    Latest tmac's loser behaviour: 1.1 second on the clock, its below him to try and throw a ball from half a court to get a 3 point so he just takes the ball and wipes the time off the clock.

    WHAT A LOSER FFS!

    Not the best of quaters, especially defending their big guys.

    Offensivly we are attacking, we are just not getting the calls, they are. Tracy needs his jumper rolling now.

    By the way, im a realist, im willing to bet 1000$ that houston aint passing first round this year either.

    Its going to end 4-1 or 4-2 no matter vs who we play.

    Absolutely! You let him prove first that he's hot, then you commit that kind of attention to him. But I would take my chances with McGrady's jumper than Shane's or Jackson's or Head's wide open threes.

    I guess they see things differently, but teams overcommitting on McGrady is -- IMO -- a classic case of teams game planning around a player's 'mythical status' around the league rather than reality.

    luther contorted himself a ridiculous amount for a relatively unguarded (if difficult) 3, but damn it went in and that's all that counts.
