    Moses Malone? Why even go there lol?

    Heck, Artest played just one season with the Rockets and he took the Rockets further than McGrady ever did.

    Clutchfans doesn’t know who Moses Malone is
    We have to stop the Newb King
    Cause he wants to erase the history of the Rockets

    I wish you wouldn’t make these kinds of overly broad statements, tinman. You know perfectly well that some of us have been following the Rockets as long or longer than you have. Had you said, “There are members of ClutchFans... “ then I would have agreed with you.

    I watched that. It was awesome. Not as amazing as McGrady’s 13 in 35 finish.

    What are we talking about? The 13 in 35 is something people are still talking about 15 years after the fact. Do you think that will happen with those games you are referencing?

    Like I said, it was the craziest finish to a game I’ve ever seen. Doesn’t mean Harden hasn’t had more impressive games this season — he has many times over.

    Anything can happen. With T-Mac, it was one-in-a-million talent and one magical game. I was jaw-droppingly amazing.

    But even Corey Brewer scored 51 points in a single magical game.

    You're right. I came off unappreciative of his talent for what it was. It really was a memorable and great moment I'll never forget. Thanks for the reply

    McGrady is a solid bench contributor on an all-time Rockets team. That's pretty good.

    Too bad my memory is ****. I can’t remember actually watching this game live now that I’ve seen the clip 1000 times. December 9, 2004…hmm

    McGrady’s legacy is tainted by his dramatic fall off from injuries, but at his peak, who are you putting above him at the 3? Clyde?
