    McGrady looks as good as can be expected. Struggling to stay with his man, but theyre forcing him to plant and push off on his right knee so the help needs to come sooner.

    How many people are ignoring McGrady's atrocious defense? Whoever he is guarding needs only to take one step and they are blowing by him.

    You serious? What's he to do when there's 1 second left on the shot clock? :confused: Or did you not know it was the end of the quarter?

    Don't bet on it, if you ever follow the Rockets. Yao is the last one will be traded in this tem.

    Is Von Wafer actually 6'5? That's a good size but on court he seems to look a bit smaller.

    I can't see the game right now - can someone comment on how Tmac's knee seems to be doing? I know he's playing well but does he look like he's in pain or struggling with the knee? Brooksball says it was pretty awkward looking when he was running back on defense... anyone else?

    I dont think dude is confidnet in his own passing skills. at one pioint in the first, Landry was in perfect position under the basket for a scoring opportunity and Scola jsu tpassed it around the perimter..

    He made two good passes earlier, too bad Yao couldn't convert.

    Mac is fighting through screens and obviously trying. It's not his fault that he's not 100% physically. He needs to accept that, and so do we. He's still helping the team though. He is obviously very aggressive with 8 points on 3-3 shooting plus what should have been 5 assists counting Landry's missed layup. If you don't think that's helping the team, I don't know what you're smoking.

    They have to play the next 3 quarters like the first or it will be a repeat of past losses.

    We would be losing without McGrady right now. Our offense sucks now

    LOL at the Sixers commentator saying Brooks had to give "everything he had" to put up that 3pt shot...and his partner says "Actually, he's a good 3pt shooter"

    Dude was underestimating Brooks' range.

    AB's shooting has been very poor for a the last few games.
