    His pass is really great but his jump is too like rafer's shot...inconsistant. Sad.

    Can honestly any of y'all actually support this guy. He just doesnt care. After 7 yrs, no playoff success, its his ****in fault. How bout the 2nd qts, 5 sec's left, Tmac is worried about lowering his fg% so he doesnt shoot. That play really got to me

    What's happened to him? Is Utah really that physical they make him a near non-factor? What happened to the T-Mac that could win a game on his own?

    I mean...game 5 is easily the game that decides the series, and by that I mean if Utah wins game 5 it's another first round exit for T-Mac and the Rockets GUARANTEED. There's no way this team is going to win in Utah, that's 100%. But if they can win game 5, they give themselves game 7 to put the series away.

    Not a damn chance half these guys would make a difference. The ONLY person I would go with right now is Kobe and maybe Chauncey. The rest is a joke (yes so is DWade, the guy is injured).

    he hasnt had playoff success b/c hes been on bad teams. t-mac's always been the best player on the court in all of his playoff series'. he's averaged 30/8/7 on 45% shooting. it's just the injuries that have taken a toll and he's declining rapidly before our eyes.

    if we had Kobe instead of McGrady there is a 50-50 shot we would be enjoying our 2nd round birth tonight or up 3-1 heading to Houston.

    I can't believe some people here think T-Mac is better than Kobe.

    It's not all on Tmac. Guys aren't hitting their shots...spacing sucks. You can't get spacing if you don't hit your shots. Juwan not hitting is pissn me off. It's a shot he made consistently up until the final month of the season and he is still missing. Yao tries to lay it up all the time. throw that crap down their throat Yao. Luther has completely dissappeared and it's not all his fault. JVG won't play him over Rafer.

    Now it's a three game series and we have to win monday. I'm really aggrivated right now. This is the same thing that happened in the Mavs series in 2005 and we all know how that final game ended. Hope we can find a way to win on monday.

    Agreed, we should have traded him when he still had value, I think everyone who's watched this series has realized he can't carry a team on his shoulders no more...now we are stuck with this guy, he's going to bring down Yao with him, sad bad it's so obvious that he's done as a superstar. Will anyone take a slow max making T-Mac off our hands?

    You guys are overreacting, T-Mac is a great player and is has led this team all year.

    BUT

    His body language today was that of a loser. He walked around the court most of the time, played lazy, hack-at-the-ball defense, and once again settled for too many jumpers.

    Wasting 5 seconds before the half is UNACCEPTABLE. He could've easily hit a 3 is he gave a damn, but he just ran out the clock. That shows me that he had already given up by halftime, which is ridiculous.

    No you were right. JVG didn't play scrubs untill the last 3 minutes when we lagged 20+ points.

    Please explain why T-Mac is doing better than LeBron or even Luol Deng right now. At least Deng can hit a midrange jumper.

    There must be something going on behind the scenes.

    There must be something going on behind the scenes.

    I think everyone noticed.

    There was something about T-Mac from start to finish tonight that just wasn't right. He had no fire. He looked defeated from the start. He wasn't anything remotely close to his normal self.

    So what is it?

    Health?

    Personal?

    Problems with the team? Problems with his coach?

    Are we all just imagining it? Did he just have a bad game and we're all looking for something that doesn't even exist?

    I personally think it does exist.

    I've never seen him like that in such an important game. There has got to be something going on with the guy...I just hope whatever it is he can get back to normal or this series is OVER.

    NO, TMAC was running the offense.. He played with no heart, no sense of urgency
