    ... in terms of giving ****ty defensive effort.

    He was near the top of the league in that category, and he has returned to elite status.

    Leaving man wide open in the corner. Not getting a hand up. Not moving his feet.

    TMac is BACK!

    The effort is there, and he has been getting a hand up. He's just lost on defense.

    Defense won't show up on the stat sheet, therefore it isn't important. How long have you been watching basketball? :rolleyes:

    Defense was sub par today. but he's on his 6th game after
    being out nearly a year. Let him work back up

    Leaving his man open once is not half of the game, man this is awful, everybody has left players open, shocking thread

    I dunno, maybe in terms of basketball quickness, but like the commentators have picked up on Tracy sure does look pretty quick

    How about this. You in your completely 100% healthy form could not defend Vince Carter better than 70% T-Mac.

    It takes a long time to train and condition your body to NBA-level. Tracy is not there yet, it'll take time. Calm down.

    If he is not ready and he cannot do things then he should not be in the game. Games are not for rehabilitation. This team is trying to make the playoffs.

    This is what Adelman was talking about.
