    tmac just needs to stop talking. he said this was his best team ever. now that he lost, he says this. just go out and play. who cares who's on your team. but he's on point about rafer. as much as we might be frustrated w/ rafer's shot, the reason he played so much b/c the drop after rafer is ridiculous.

    Tracy just needs more help and he needed a new coach. How can we play good if we are defensive team. Now it'll change

    i hope it's true. i so badly want for tmac to advance. he has done every individual thing he can do outside of an MVP but team success evades him.

    Fixed that for you. For me, most everything Tracy says from now on is just empty hot air.

    certainly t-mac has to shoulder blame for his lack of playoff success but he's also just run into some bad luck much like kevin garnett. it's not like both these guys aren't talented enough to be champions and haven't given it all in the playoffs. if garnett doesn't get out of minnesota i feel his chances are over, but t-mac still has time to define his career.

    There is no doubt in my mind that Adelman will make life easier for Mac. I think the same thing is true of Yao.

    I am intrigued...

    Tmac should avoid ALL publicity until he either retires to go play baseball or gets out of the first round.

    I am as big of a McGrady fan as there is, but sometimes he talks too much. I do believe that he cares and wants to win badly, I just think he doesnt realize that he cant do it by himself.

    Tracy tried to defelect alot of the pressure off yao and co by making the it's on me comment. it backfired, but the original idea of was nobel. what i do like about adelmans comments regarding tracy is , he is stressing that the game must be made easier for him. he wants tracy to be a better player off the ball. were gonna see alot of cutting towards the basket without the rock from tracy. he is gonna score alot by being found underneath the rim.

    The more I think about this the more excited I get. I can see TMac playing the role of Peja only better.


    You also have to like the fact that he is going to use Ming to his strengths. Keeping Ming out of the low post (for a good portion of his playing time) banging with other teams throw away players should keep him fresher and help keep his TO/Fouls down too. Of course when his rebounding goes down people here will cry Adelman isnt using him right. They will say we are wasting his talents.

    Thats something I am not looking further too. We will most likely get off to a slow start. :(

    but I don't think we will have a slow start...just an average start

    the best way to deflect pressure on his team & teammates is to STFU and play

    Why are people still asking tmac if yao can be dominant? They should be asking tmac if he can still be dominant.

    uh he still is. he did draw more defensive attention than yao in the utah series did he?

    sloan def. put more emphasis on tmac as the series went along and let yao go 1-on-1.

    it wasn't tmac's best offensive season and he knows that.

    How is he 'turn'-ing at all? Do you really think he's going to whine about Adelman being the new coach, no matter how much he liked Van Gundy?

    It's called being a professional. Aside from that, you know inside he's intrigued about the offensive possibilities anyhow.

    eh..I'm down on both T-mac and bonzi. T-mac let up at the end of a game that should be won. And Bonzi...I don't know what his problem is.
