about your sig, I cant figure out why Morey would want Tmac to prove the Rockes wrong. If Tmac proves Morey wrong,then Morey made mistake,is it just lip service? What of gm trades a player,then hopes that player plays great to prove him wrong in trading him?
i would blame it on rick and morey. morey wanted tmac gone since last year hence the trade for vince carter. and rick wouldnt want to play tmac this season because everything was great at the start of the season and he was coaching for an extension. les just let things happen. he had trust in morey and in rick. they were the ones making the decisions. that's why we see morey getting pissed all of the time because things arent turning out the way he expects things to be: ariza isnt what they thought he'd be, dorsey still sucks, chase is stuck in a rut, AB still cant run a team, and he cant get a buyer for tmac. and just like every tmac hater here says all the time, "they made their bed. they should go lie in it".
hummm,conspiracy theory: tmac was doing good in practice,Les or Morey wants a lotto pick,they limit Tmac to 7 minutes so he doesnt help win games,then trade him but now RA is saying we are missing two players? Sounds like Rick wanted Tmac but was forced to play him 7 minutes by higher ups. Why 7 minutes you ask? To prevent injury so he can be traded,playing 33mpg would likely end in injury before deadline. Tmac balked at 7 so he is kicked off team.
I don't particularily like McGrady, but only a fool would suggest this squad is better without him. (yes even the current version) This just further suggests that management wanted him gone due to pride and Adelman was just "playing nice w/ management" when he suggested McGrady wasnt the player he once was.
This team is horrible We have 26 million sitting at home.. T-mac could be playing contributing to the team. The Rockets would rather have him sit and not let any teams see him play... I don't understand.... We don't play him cause we are going to to trade him yet he is not playing... How are we going to entice anyone? We really need change or we will not make the playoffs.....
Lock/merge this ish. There were already some knee-jerk threads out there. Surprised you didn't see them. Also, follow Blurr's advice.
Rockets mishandled the McGrady situation no doubt about it, although McGrady at the same time could have been more patient. Either way, the Rockets could have used McGrady these past few weeks.
Even if TMac is still one of the top two players on this team but not willing to play within the confines of the offense, then he needed to go. So RA is not wrong and didn't make a bad choice if thats the case. I tell all my employees I dont care if you are the best at your position and sell more than everyone combined, if you aren't a good employee also(works well with others, follows instructions, dependable, 100% effort) then they can go. If you have every managed people you should understand.
Really? But everybody and their mother from Connecticut to ClutchFans.NET was repeating this very mantra nonstop all season long ... until they slowly began to realize what a giant bag of suck Trevor Ariza is, of course.
Why would we still be getting 80% of his salary when he is healthy and is not playing only because coach doesn't want to play him? I don't think insurance would pay for that.
