    Worrell said it best tonight... nobody knew that T-Mac was THIS good, since we only saw him twice a year, and he was on a really bad team in 2004. I don't think even Orlando knew it. You surround this guy with some weapons, and he's absolutely deadly... if you don't give him those options, he has to jack up 30 shots a night (and no player is good like that).

    He's not just your best scorer... he's your best passer, play executer, and one-on-one defender.

    And he's all ours. :D

    Not only is he all ours, he is all ours for many more years with his contract extended earlier in the year

    T-Mac reached the 30 point mark. That's always a good sign for the Rockets. Not to mention they have the edge in rebounding.

    Of course, I probably just pulled a Bill Worrell and jinxed them by bringing that up. ;)

    Yao isn't back on the bench yet... these stitches are taking an awfully long time... I hope everything else is okay with him.

    Orlando knew exactly how good he was. Weisbrod said that T-Mac is the best talent in the NBA, but he's not as "tough" as Francis. I think that has been disproven this year. T-Mac has played through several injuries

    Alright... Yao's back from the dressing room finally... should be back in the game shortly.

    T-Mac has slowed a bit since we started lauding him..

    Being "tough" is just part of him being "good" as well... frankly, they just didn't like the fact that T-Mac controlled his own faith, and could hold the franchise hostage like that.

    How could they question his toughness... the guy played hurt most of the entire year on the worst team in the NBA, still led the league in scoring, and was the only player who seemed to give a damn on most nights on that team.

    Meanwhile, Francis has missed a plethora of games from things due to migrains, suspensions, super bowls, and birthdays.

    Last three... and they were all good looks.

    He was nailing them all in the 3rd, so he had to cool of a little, I guess... but we've been stuck on 71 for forever.

    Its probably time to run a play for Yao again.

    When you posted, he had one shot. The other two shots came after you posted, Nostradamus
