    DOn't understand. Why play Prince for 35+ minutes and Tracy for only 15. At least TMac is a playmaker so that other can get easier shots.

    But their coach is a complete idiot, so this is normal I guess.

    I think Tmac knows that his time will come mid season.

    They are trying to get him healthy while they are going to trade Prince and Hamilton.

    The dunk actually proves its a mental thing, he jumped pretty high, finally a play we can call vintage t-mac....

    The thing is, can he play more than the 20 so minutes he´s getting in detroit? Thats the final step.

    he got up pretty damn high on the block too of nick young

    i think he will never get more minutes until prince or hamilton are traded

    and tmac is a RHYTHM player. even when healthy, sometimes it takes him a quarter to really get going

    but man he is slowly getting everything together

    and from ESPN:

    Kuester even got some coaching help from veteran Tracy McGrady.

    "Tracy came up with a play, and we got two huge 3-pointers out of it in the fourth quarter -- Will Bynum got one and Charlie got one," Kuester said. "That's how you know you are coming together as a team -- when guys speak up in situations like that."


    that's how you know keuster is not a good coach

    Yep I agree he´s steadily and slowly improving.

    The thing is, he is still light years away from the player he once was, I mean, I hope he gets it back together, but we are talking about a guy who won scoring champ.

    If t-mac plays well I'll definitely get NBA LP, he's a favorite of mine, well actually he's my favorite to be exact. Yeah NBA LP doesnt make sense since fs houston has got the home games and paying to see the rox get clobbered on the road doesnt make sense.

    lol, since he isn't getting a lot of playing time, how about Coach McGrady?

    It was a medical decision. At the start of the season, they announced they'd limit McGrady to 15 minutes, much like Yao not going over 24.

    No quite sure about it. McGrady made play for Steve Novak after his mistake on D and kept the streak alive. It means Adelman is not a good coach? ;) :grin:

    But everybody has some questions about Kuester decision making. For sure
