    I'm gonna have to go with the 22nd straight win against the Lakers. That was pretty much the high point of the season and has a lot more sentimental value to me than any of the others this year. I'm expecting even more from the team next season! I can't wait!

    Has to be #22 vs the Lakers. The buzz around TC was electric, national audience, and the crowd actually stayed the whole game.

    Mine was the win over Dallas.It was a great all round performance.
    I also liked it when Francis put us over the top against Phoenix.They looked unbeatable prior to that against us. Our first win against Utah brought out the best in McGrady,that was awesome too.

    Win in Phoenix where Steve Francis put on the finishing touches. I thought he was "back" after that game.

    If he only gets healthy and gets in shape.....that would be like adding another Free Agent to the team.

    Yeah, my favorite game too. I hope he can get healthy and that Adelman will give the guy a chance.

    If anyone would give the guy a 2nd chance it would be Adelman....

    If Steve's knee problems are over, and he gets himself in shape and dedicates himself again to basketball......man, that would be great.

    He is still only 30 years old......the question is....has he lost it?

    1. Season opener vs Lakers (cuz I was there hehe) but still a great game
    2. 22nd straight win vs Lakers
    3. 2nd Suns game, Francis giving it everything he had
    4. vs Hornets in NO blowing em out BAD.
    5. 2nd game vs Spurs. When McGrady was out the 1st time but Scola had his coming out party against the team that traded him.
    6. Moral victory vs the Celtics on the road where they barely lost without McGrady. That was when Yao w/o McGrady felt he could truly lead the team (I didnt care a crap abou the double overtime loss to the Nuggets)
