    Oh my sheit, as much as I would hate to see T-Mac leave the Rockets, I would LOVE to see T-Mac and Kobe on the same team.

    You know the trade would only motivate T-Mac to get back in form and play harder, then the Lakers would light the league up. T-Mac and Kobe in the playoffs, who the hell can stop that.

    Lakers are gonna largh their asses off if we propose to trade TMac for Odom.

    Odom is playing like Pippen (Bulls) on steroid but TMac's stock is dropping like Enron.

    The only hope for Rockets have is to let TMac slowly get back to his old self. If his problem is all mental not physical, it's still doable.

    I understand the people that says to be patient with TMac, m concern is if we wait too long and he never is the same player again. It's like playing the stock market. You want to buy low and sell high. Right now, TMac's value has taken a hit, but it might get even lower going forward. Let's get something now before he goes ENRON on us.

    Dude, you don't think other teams know the same thing you do? Don't they watch games?

    Hayes had 4 turnovers and Wells and Rafer had 4 a piece also so TMAC was NOT the only one to suck it up tonight. TMac was playing better coming off those back injuries last yr so Im really concerned. I havent seen the game yet but Im sure it comes down to shot selection. Shooting under 35% for the season is flat out terrible.

    Good post. In response to e: I get the feeling that JVG likes to finish close games with the same group, but I agree. They looked extremely tired out there starting at about the mid way point in the 4th quarter. We did notfinish well at all.

    I also agree with you about Hayes. I like his game and I don't mind him getting minutes, but he is not a starter.

    An additional observation: Bonzi Wells looks completely out of synch, and he has A LOT of work to do.

    who could we get? We're not getting LeBron, Paul, Wade, or any of those young guys. We won't get Dirk, Arenas, Pierce or any of the veteran stars. The best we can get is like Michael Redd, and he is too one-dimensional. We're better off staying with him, I am confident he will come back.

    Why are people getting pissed about us complaining after a loss? Let us complain, it's a loss! what do you expect us to hold a parade and dance around naked to Spice Girls songs in celebration?

    We're upset over a game that we were supposed to win.. so let us.

    We're upset that TMac didn't deliver offensively in the 4th when we needed him to. We ALL know that TMac is probably gonna get back in form by midseason. We're not stupid. We're complaining that he didn't deliver tonight. SORRY for not being so optomistic about tonight's game like some of you are.

    if it's any consolation at all, Allas, Miami, and Phoenix are also stinking it up right now. :mad: , this is what it's come down to; hoping the other teams do badly just like last season. oh well...

    the rockets so far are a bad road team or the two road teams they played are great teams.

    Both the Jazz and Hornet are playoff contenders. Losing to them on the road early in the season really isn't that big a deal.

    Im sure we can handle the Grizzlies. Im kinda worried about the Bucks game but I still think we can pull that one out. We have the Knicks after that so we could go into Miami at 4-2, which would be a very nice start for a team that is "gelling". I just want to stay optimistic.

    It's too early to make any kind of judgement like that.

    You have a point. Tmac does seem to start slow so odds are he'll be OK but I wish JVG would cut his minutes till he gets there. Every game counts even these early games and right now he is hurting the team.
