I don't want to jump to conclusions or anything, but now with Yao out, are Rafer and T-mac our new 1-2 punch? Both of them are really playing well and coming out and putting up consistent numbers night in and night out, and it's turning out to be a pretty good combination in the backcourt for us. Obviously, when Yao comes back next season, it's still T-mac and Yao. But for this season, even though we've had really nice balance in this team, Rafer and T-mac really could be the 2 guys to lead us. I just hope they can keep this up the rest of the way, especially Rafer.
i still think we need to post scola much much more. he's so skilled that if they play him straight up, he's going to abuse people. hopefully adelman will eventually do that. but tmac at the high post is so freakin' unstoppable. u double him and we swing the ball for a 3 or a guy cutting to the basket. u play him straight up and his first step let him get to the basket with ease. or if he's hot, jumpers galore. but i would like to see scola more in the post b/c i feel it would alleviate the pressure on tracy. tmac is getting too many double teams for my liking the past few games.
They looked very good out there tonight..looked like a very good backcourt. Something we need to win in the playoffs.
