TMac isn't scared of Kobe.The thing is that pre back injury earlier in their careers when Tracy had the physical advantage he played with confidence and most importantly it clearly defined strategy.Tracy respected what Kobe could do but when they would be at it one on one and TMac dominated him....offensively and defensively.I think he realizes that Kobe is more than he can handle one on one anymore,he needs help D and it does a mind job on him.Gotta say that Tracy is making strides in changing his game and has an idea what he's comfortable doing out there now.It seems to be happening rather quickly now and that bodes well for the Houston Rockets.
Hey Im a rook so I cant post threads but Im listening to SporstRadio 610(on Itunes) and they were talking about Tmac. Basically they said he did EVERTYTHING during the series against the Jazz and that he CANNOT be blamed for their loss. They also said that if Kobe was traded for Tmac, he would not gel with the team because Kobe + Mike James + Bonzi Wells = Bad Combination and Tmac is different from Kobe because he is willing to "spread the wealth"
