I don't understand why if TMac comes back he would be unhappy with Rox. Do the Rox organization or Rox fans owe him something, or do him something terribly wrong? Please elaborate.
Mcgrady and ron leaving.....That's what 2010 is for. If Mcgrady is going to leave he'll get traded next year for someone who cannot leave. And in 2010 with all those big players moving around, one team cannot possibly afford them all. The rockets will get something and the supporting cast that is being built up will ensure that the rockets aren't horrible no matter who it is.
i follow the magic as well as the rockets, so i was happpy when you said rafer is better for the magic... cause i agree. then.... i read the rest of your points. tisk tisk.
This stuff below... HOGWASH! Artest is not overrated, he is a very good player... not a superstar... no one said he was. Look, every team in the NBA or in the world for that matter would love to have Yao Ming or if we had an American version that was 7'6 and could put in 20 pts and give us 10 boards a game... they'd want him too. Rafer in Orlando... yeah a good team but Im sorry to tell you buddy, they are not going to win an NBA championship. D. Howard may want to learn from Yao and develop more than a dunking game. RA... when we execute his offense and move the ball, our offense can be potent. Defense, yeah JVG was the best and still is in my humble opinion. Im not attacking anyone, just rebutting this post with my own logical opinion. Go Rockets... Go Houston teams...
why does no one point out that Yao's biggest obsticle is getting "the superstar call" we see it all the time when the game gets tight he starts to get called for BS calls that if he was duncan, howard, wade, lebron, etc....... would be waived off. It happens to him on offense and defense, everyone bashes his D and yes he sucks at pick and roll D and he's worthless on the perimiter, but he does a great job protecting the paint. when he shows little aggresion on both sides of the court he gets called for a foul. NE one who doesn't acknowledges that he gets the shaft from the refs does not watch the rockets.
2nd that. what is with all these haters like ubigred. now that team chemistry is at a season high after the tmac fiasco, its time to get behind on this team.
Is this you T-Mac? I know Yao taking your place as the team's go to player hurts you but you got to let it go if you want to move on. I realize Alston was your friend and made you look good by missing all those shots so that you wouldn't have the lowest fg% in the league but it's time you let him go too. He's moved on and so has the team. So should you.
I don't get how people can seriously believe that Yao is a huge liability even though he gets 19 and 9 and slows down an offense, even though the Rockets are like 22 and 1 with him scoring over 20 pts a game this season. The OP wants well thought out responses for an original post that screams ignorance.
