In General people around these areas don't seem to know the meaning of the word chill. Like I said before, the way they criticize and talk about players is at times freaky. It's okay to be critical but sometimes the criticism is taken WAYYY to far. Beyond the limits of what die hard fan should mean.
He needs to play even if he's 85% and just play a limited amout of minutes until he's 100% that way he can build chemistry with the team. Seems like he doesn't want to be out there unless everything is perfect which will never be because your going to get a bump here and there through out the season so he might as well get in a rythym of playing with a little nagg here and there.
Tmac said he will play Thursday night in the preseason game, all being limited minutes. I guess based on how he feels will determine if he is ready for the season opener. We open with back to back games, I think we can still win without him in the Memphis game but we will need him against Dallas (Oct 30) and Boston (Nov 04).
I didn't want to start a new thread for it, but did anyone just see the new NBA on ESPN commercial? T-Mac is in it along with Dwight Howard and Andre Iguodala. I guess that means he will be in the ads all season long like Chris Bosh, Paul Pierce and the rest were last year. I'm looking forward to them.
Great to hear that Tracy will bring out his fierce, competitive, full of swagger self this season. Let that Rage come out Tmac. Your team needs that. Go Rockets!
Winning championship is not just about talents....it depends on luck too!! When i say "luck," i mean lucky in terms of being injured-free. I remember the Kings during their Championship runs, they were plague with injuries...Peja was out on a crucial game. Then a year or 2 later in the Playoffs, Webber was injured while they dominate the Mavs. As a result of these bad luck and getting eliminated...public view of the Kings as a team not able to take it to the next level. So instead of blaming on bad luck, they blame it on talents and Petrie start trading and dismantle the team afterward. Had they kept the team, i think the Kings will continue getting into Playoffs and try their luck for the Championship. Another type of luck involve getting good bounce under the rim and lucky break such as rebound going your way the whole game. It's little things like that that produce Championship too ....it's not just about talents. With that said...the Rockets luck is pretty low as predicted through out the year. In order to win a Championship, they need Yao Ming to go to a Chinese temple and pray for the well-being of the entire team. Only then will the team free of bad spirit and luck.
Yes, because its just out of this world that a pro basketball player would sit down and write a blog on his website . I mean, c'mon, he's a NBA player. He plays basketball and sleeps with groupies 24 hours a day.
I wish Artest could get tmac and yao to get on the BBS. I mean, Ron has been here for 2 months and he's probably shown more love to the fans than any rockets on this squad...
Because we don't have to. We want our max player to play like a max player and not make excuses every time his vagina itches.
