    You would not have posted so much had Lin or Mac made the second round frequently.

    You deem Mac worthy of your time and bandwidth here. I can respect that. ;)

    I will say, the timing of this bump bothers me, not nearly as much as Tinman does, but still... If you're a Rockets fan today, who cares about Mac's legacy as a Rocket right now when you have the next MJ on your team and you're in the playoffs.

    Bye Mac thread. Bye Tinman.

    No Tracy McGrady threads should EVER be bumped from now til the end of days.
    Especially during playoff advancement because he has nothing in common with that topic.

    Til the end of time.

    I didn't bump this thread.

    You know why it was bumped. Jealousy.

    If you were born after 1990, there is a 17% chance Shawn Kemp is your biological father.

    i love it when t-mac comes to games and they show him on the jumbotron and the whole toyota center crowd gives him a RAUCOUS ovation.

    i'm glad we have a lot of true rockets fans at our games. :cool:

    James Harden 17 playoff games and counting - +playoff series win over Dallas

    Tracy McGrady 20 playoff games and that's it - no playoff series win ever


    The FUTILITY of McGrady was ERASED by the EFFICIENCY of James Harden

    James Harden > McGrady in everything

    I've been on this board since the Genesis.

    Tmac fans are jealous folk.

    4. Yao - they believe he was the reason that Tmac never won in Houston
    3. LeBron - continues to claim he has the same talent and is jealous of his rise
    2. Kobe - the only reason Tmac fans exist is because Kobe was so much better

    and the new #1

    1. JAMES HARDEN -did more for Rockets fans in less time and is vastly superior in skills

    Answer this question for me, who's taken the Rockets further because he's clearly the superior player?

    1. James Harden

    2. Tracy McGrady


    Simple question. Simple answer.

    The question is stupid and shows you know nothing about basketball and teamwork.

    I know that winning 22 games in a row is a team effort not by only 1 guy who didn't play in all 22 games .

    I know that James Harden is better than Tracy McGrady, any day of the week, month of the year, year of the decade, til the end of time

    What franchise players in the history of the NBA could not lead a team to win a playoff series in 16 seasons?

    First, prime McGrady was on a level very few players ever achieved, saying Harden is better any day is complete nonsense.

    Second, how many franchise players had a supporting cast as sh!tty as he had?

    Love how you now ride Harden's D and use it against t-Mac, just because we won against a bad Mavs team.

    You like to ask questions, how about this one: Do you really think this team wouldn't have won the series vs. the Mavs if you switched Harden with prime McGrady?


    You won't directly answer it because it would show how flawed and brainless your posts are.

    Oh really? Prime McGrady? When was that? Orlando? Harden would average 50 points on that team AND take team to at least the conference finals.

    You're right, he's on a level we've never seen before. If you are so talented and never won an MVP in our entire career you, you aren't that great.

    During his 'prime years' in Orlando, 03-04, the MVPs were Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett.

    Oh both of these guys are still in the league.


    Vince Carter, Yao Ming, Al Horford, Jeff Teague, Shane Battier

    oh yeah, crappy

    What about coaching ? did he have bad coaches


    You can't admit that Harden is better. It's easy.

    Yea he likes to ask questions but when we do he calls it "making up scenarios"

    The funniest part of the bit is when he praises guys like Lbj for the success they got IN THE LEASTERN CONFERENCE.
