    I know tracy had 30, but my man of the match is scola. he was just doing everything. hustle, scoring and boarding. more importantly he has adjusted to the officiating. love scola. spurs are gonna regret this deal for a long time...

    Seattle outscored the Rockets by 13pts in the 4th qtr maybe that works out good for him?

    u know what i like about this game: when we know tmac was hot, we kept feeding hiim.

    w/ JVG, when tmac is hot, he used him as a decoy most of the time to draw even more double teams :rolleyes:

    Completely disagree. When Tracy got hot last year, he would always keep shooting until he wasn't hot any more and would end up shooting less than 50% for the game.

    Kobe hasnt done jack minus shaq. That's why he's whining. He's finding out what Tmac and PP and AI went through.
    Afterall, it was his reason for not wanting to play with the daddy anyhow. He said he was tired of them telling him he can't win without Shaq, and how he wanted to be the #1 banana.

    All he's done is scoring titles and 1st round exits. Seen it before.

    Wow, now you're just making stuff up. McGrady got the ball early and often, when he was hot, and when he was cold.

    u sure? tmac got off to A LOT of great first quarter last yr (double digit scoring) and he always sits down for a LOOONG time in the 2nd and does n't shoot until the 3rd.

    what i mean is keep going to him. if this was a real game tonight, tmac would have gotten 30 shots and on his way to 50+ pts.

    he would have never gotten that under JVG.

    What? When McGrady gets 30 shots it always seems like he makes about 10 of them, and this happened quite a bit last year. Really, I don't want to see McGrady shooting it 30 times. When McGrady was hot he'd keep shooting those pull-up treys, and they'd stop going in.

    I would keep Mike Harris instead of Lucas, Novak, Landry, Butler. Please do not cut Harris.

    last yr that may be the case b/c his jumper was out of whack last yr. that won't be the case this yr. i think adelman is a guy that will keep pounding it whoever is hot: tmac or yao. so expect both guys to have big scoring nights a lot of times.

    You are totally mistaken. One of JVG's major flaws was that there were no restraints at all on Tracy's shot selection. It was ridiculous at times, even when Tracy was supposedly hot. Sometimes it seemed like Tracy was experimenting by trying to test how long he could go before cooling off.

    JVG was controlling over everyone EXCEPT Tracy and it was very noticeable.

    People who are just reading box scores would just think that Scola had a decent game.....but watching him in a game...you really see how much he brings to the table. He was amazing. Taking charges, rebounding, hustling, passing....just everything we need from that power forward position.

    I say we keep Harris but we cut Synder, Reed, and Lucas for sure... I can't decide between Novak, Butler, and Landry...
