and plays as good as Kobe this year. Are we really that far off from the Lakers? 2009-2010 Houston Rockets Roster C: David Andersen/Chuck Hayes/Pops Mensah Bonsu PF: Luis Scola/Carl Landry/Joey Dorsey SF: Trevor Ariza/Shane Battier/Chase Budinger SG: Tracy McGrady/Rashad McCants/Jermaine Taylor PG: Aaron Brooks/Kyle Lowry Injured: Yao Ming T-Mac = Kobe Luis and Carl < Gasol Andersen <<< Bynum Ariza and Battier > Artest Brooks and Lowry = Fisher and the guard from Charlotte (forgot his name) I think we're not as bad as people think we are...
As them kids would say "PWNage"! Mc Hammer is saying "please Yoyo don't hurt'em!" Thanks for my new sig.
i dont like the word pretend its almost like saying lets pretend the Astros are better than what we see right now. I would put it as best case scenario that t-mac comes back to elite status, cuz i feel he still can, and that brooks plays well and scola and everybody else. That sounds better.
Alright, I'll play too. Maybe not "= Kobe", but if McGrady can equal himself from '07-'08... Then yes - we're like a crappy Lakers.
Then did someone help you get off the floor because you fell out of your seat laughing like woody woodpecker?
Pretend Yao dunk from half court and does it once a game. Leading the rockets to 600,000 champions and 33 1/2 MVP!!!
Pretend? I think its pretty much understood that Tmac is going to come back in the best shape of his life. I'm very excited about it and I predict that he will be in the MVP runnings with Kobe and Lebron at the end of the season. This guy has NEVER worked very hard before and has always been a top 10 or better player in this league. It's clear that Tmac is on a mission.
first of all, mcgrady is not kobe but him as good tmac helps a bunch. but no way to win this year. rockets will struggle to win 30
The only thing that is more ridiculous than pretending McGrady could ever be Kobe is to not recognize Brooks/Lowry is a huge upgrade over Fisher/Farmar/and that other dude.
LA? Are you kidding me? I am thinking about Cleveland instead. Sure, McGrady is no LeBron but if he returns to what he once was can't we be as good as Cavs? I understand it is tougher in the West but come on, Ariza, Aaron, Shane, Carl, Luis are better than West, Mo, Varejao, etc... We just need Brooks to explode as MO did last season. That's my opinion.
People on this board are overrating Kobe. He starts to get wins on a loaded team and all of a sudden he is the next MJ. Back when he was struggling to get .500 with kwame brown everyone said they didn't want him for t-mac. If t-mac returns Battier becomes a non-factor and hopefully gets moved by mid-season.
Pretend for a moment that the basket is lowered to 2 feet high for all games here forward...would we sign all midgets to be on our team?
