Tonight has been a perfect example of how both Yao AND Tracy can dominate in the same game. For all of you that were worried about Yao not getting his touches in an offense that allows Tracy to be a big scorer as well, I hope you got your answer tonight. There's plenty of ball to go around, and when both stars are threatening on offense, the game just opens right up for everyone. One thing you really like to see is, just like we've been begging for all along, Tracy was taking it hard to the rack during this game. The Warriors had to respect TMac taking it to the rack or the shot, they had to respect Yao, and they had to respect the role players. This is what makes 2 legitimate superstars so unbeatable.
Dude whatever Yao wasn't that special tonight. He's been doing that all season. I SAID I HOPED DEKE KNOCKED SOME SENSE INTO TMAC AND SOME OF HIS OLD ATHLETICSM. DAAAAAAAMN. Driving. Dunking. Finishing. Hittin' jumpers. That's the T-Mac we saw the first season in Houston. That's the T-Mac we were expecting this season. Pair him with the new Yao (nothing new anymore though ) and you have yourself a pretty damn good team already. I think we should all take turns kissing Deke's elbows. T-Mac probably woke up and couldn't remember what year it was. He probably woke up and was like "Shieeeeet son it's still 04-05 I think i'm going to go out there and be aggressive, shoot well, and dunk the ball."
Juwan is playing better off the bench than I anticipated. Chris Webber or Abdur Raheem can never accept the role that Juwan is accepting. The guy is solid. If he can bring his usual scoring to the table and you add his recent rebounding and hustle, he can be a candidate for 6th man of the year. He's an extremely underrated passer and his IQ is great. He has a wealth of experience. I think I just gave Zboy a heart attack Can you imagine what our rotation would be like if we added arguably the best 3 players (other than the daunting duo) in Bonzi, Sura, Snyder SCARRRRRYY
No kidding. I never thought we'd see this kind of depth at the 4 position. Chuck Hayes has been good for Juwan. Heck, even Padgett has caught rebounding fever.
Maybe it was Fran BooBerry's article in the Chronicle saying how much McGrady is "not" Kobe Bryant. Yeah, Francis, and Kobe ain't Jordan, and Jordan ain't Chamberlain (never scored 100 in a game), and Chamberlain ain't Russell with 11 rings, and none of them are James Naismith, blah, blah, blah. Let's just create a post after every game criticizing McGrady for any little thing he doesn't do, and make sure to send it to the locker room before each game. Whatever it takes. Deke's elbow, Shawn Bradley's shadow, a Spurs uniform, a "Yankees Suck" shirt- why not? Mac the Knife.
We do. The West is going to be a beast in the playoffs. This might be the road to the Finals: Lakers Mavericks Spurs Shoot, the Finals would be the weakest round.
okay i am sorry that no one picked up on my sarcasm (actually that wasnt sarcasm dont really know what it is)
Agreed man...for sure. This team needs as much offense as it can get...we can shut people down but we go ice cold for long stretches...good to see them get some easy baskets tonight. That's always a welcome site.
