talented players = players who can actually have the skills to score on their own somewhat. scola can do that pretty good. landry can't. bobby can't (he does try though). hayes can't. battier can't. head can't. brooks is too young and makes mistakes. we have a great group of hard-working guys who succeed simply by outworking guys. that will work during the reg. season b/c most teams don't go all out in every game like we do. in the playoffs they do.
T mac played his heart out. He has to be the unluckiest player ever. I am just happy to see him play hard on defense and offense.
T Mac showed his versatility. He blocked shots. He rebounded. He got steals. He had assists and he scored for 3 quarters. He played his heart out on offense and defense. They kept switching guys to guard him and he got worn out. Therefore we should trade him for 50cents on the dollar. What bs.
T-mac had a great game, even though Utah took him out of the game in the 4th. My only problem was with how he left the court. There were a bunch of kids trying to give him high fives and he ignored them. It's not their fault the Rockets can't man-up. Other players gave them fives, but T-mac ignored them. I would have liked to see character step-up, since he's their hero, even in a dark moment.
Good point! But, I think a true great shooter (e.g., Jason Kapono) even he needs someone else to create play for him, he still should be thought as a talented player. I am impressed by Kapono this postseason. He was critized for his soft and not a hustle player by the raptors' fans in regular season. But, talent is talent! His 3pt shooting is amazing in playoffs.
Thanks for the thread and the encouragement. Thanks, TMac, for doing what you need to do. Wish TMac can overcome the threat to his confidence and realize his destiny... Destiny that one day, he will grace the Rockets with a trophy.
you know he loves his fans. he was probably still peeved about how the last minute went down, esp. with that ak47 call.
What a bunch of kiss azz whiny babies...oh wait...WTF is everyone jumping on the bandwagon for a thread started by a Fakers fan...He needs to prove he's a Superstar... Seriously, he did good, but he didn't do great...I'm not saying trade him, but you have to be a crazy not to think it won't happen...The refs suck, his team didn't help, but he gets paid the big bucks, it is all on him... Btw, I believe we can still win in 7...
No many people could understand what he must feel like at that moment. He left everything he had on the court yet we still couldn't pull out the win (although it was a winnable game). Ten years in the league, still not out of the 1str round, 0-2 down against an obviously better team, didn't get much help from his teammates... What more can he do?...
