I can't believe there's still T-Mac fans here after everyone else on the board has figured out that the team is better off without him. Addition by subtraction. Look at the total number of assists for the last few games. Way over 20. Why? Because T-Mac's no longer around to be a black hole on offense and keep the ball from moving.
T-backnee is doing this on purpose, he's resting so he can be "healthy" when his contract year comes up.......he's a me me type of guy....we should have let him go a few years back.....the playoffs showed how he sucked when times got tough.
Lack of effort and quitting are two different things. Maybe he hasnt had a game like Tmac did in Toronto, he still has had off games to the point were people made the trade artest threads. Artest has been a ball stopper too, so dont get it twisted. Artest recently started playing decent so dont act like he is a superstar that has always came through for us this season.
One of the best things about Tmac is how he plays in the playoffs, check the games and see what tmac has vs what the rest of the team has had. Yao has never came through in the playoffs for us and neither has anyone else.
At least he's had games where he wasn't a ball stopper, where he played within the offense. Again, his game has been all over the place. And he's never, ever had a game like Toronto where T-Mac decided to quit and let the Rockets go four on five.
The Rockets weren't a contender with McGrady. Regardless of where they end up they're better off without him and they'll advance farther than if he was on the team.
Unlike people like you, I dont band wagon, I am not going to pms over everyone on the team having bad games. Real fans dont pms and complain, they wait, keep supporting, and hope everything comes through in the end.
Sometimes the interests of the team and the interests of one player just don't line up. In fact, sometimes they're in opposition. Sorry, but if the choice is between McGrady and the rest of the team I'll take the rest of the team, no question. And things did work out in the end. McGrady called it a season and the Rockets took off without him.
The last three games he's played into the offense, and if you can read, I already said he hasnt had a game like tmac in toronto....His game has recently appeared for the last 3 games. Let me know why he couldnt play like he is doing these three games when he was coming off the bench since his game has been all over the place?
LOL . This right here shows how strongly you are one of the McGrady haters. He could never change up his play to accommodate his teammates. HAHAHA. So i guess he goes nut everytime and doesn't pass the ball. McGrady in Houston sure looks the same as McGrady in Orlando. Yeah he sure hasn't changed his game since being traded here
Took off? 3 game winning streak and they are number 1 now? When they lose again, let's see who everyone plays the blame game with. 3 games dont prove anything.
These last three games aren't the only ones where Artest has done a decent job of staying within the offense. He's played pretty well within it in the Boston game and the first game against Dallas. As for these last few games the whole team is benefiting because McGrady isn't around. No distractions and no stupid soap opera drama.
Really? All I know is that if Yao didn't injury for the last two seasons, the rockets would be a contender, at least, they could pass the 1st round. And, if without Tmac for the last two seasons, the rockets wouldn't make the playoffs.
Would Yao dominate in the playoffs which he has never done so far? In the playoffs, Tmac couldnt come through because it was only him doing something. Everyone else goes dead during playoff time and when tmac gets tired, it's all his fault because no one else helped him try to win.
It's 4 games, they have a 4 game winning streak. The Rockets are now I believe 8-1 in their last 9 games without McGrady. Overall they're around .55 with McGrady and around .67 without him.
Dude, give it up. T-Mac's gone for this season and there's almost no chance that he'll be back next year as a Rocket. Everybody on this forum is sick to death of the guy and the sad thing is that it sounds like everybody on the team and in the Rockets organization feels the same way.
So I guess that's a total of 5 for the season? In your eyes he stayed in the offense. He hasnt done anything magical to the point were people thinks this team is better with him and not Tmac.
Once again, you fail the realize that you can't speak for everyone on the forum. Les saying he wont trade tmac must mean they are better without him? Know some facts first.
