Ask Hakeem. there is no tired. When you're down 1-0, looking at being down 2-0 to the best home court team, there is no freaking tired.
You can go further than those guys. TMac makes $19 million a season. I don't think it's too much to ask someone who makes over $200k PER GAME to score more than 1 point in the 4th quarter.
Idiot. It's not all his fault. I'm just telling you that Tmac is not tough enough to be the lead dog. He is not tough enough against the tough teams in the league. When it was time to push, he didn't . The 2nd half was the series. he pulled up lame. Or as you'd say -- tired.
It's easy, TMac isn't the Houston Rockets, he's just one guy, that unfortunately decides whether we win or lose most of the time.
man i was there too and i really hope your kidding when you blame this one on t-mac. i mean what else was he supposed to do he put up insane numbers with double teams and he still gets criticized. its unbelievable what you ppl post. yes there have been games when he didn't show up but tonight he brought but it just wasn't enough. i mean if others would just made their shot he easily could have had 15 assists. i know he missed some free throws but the man can't do it all by himself. 1 vs 5. get real.
I know the post looked sarcastic but it wasn't meant to be, Tracy gave it everything he had this game and saying that he quit is just moronic. I'm sorry he's not Jordan, but we didn't even have a PG in this game. He had to literally do everything
Exactly. The world might come to an end, Dada and i agree on something basketball related. but exactly.
Sorry Rileydog! You just don't have any feeling for the game and it's players! It was so obvious that Tracy was SPENT and couldn't do anything about it. The Game was predictible, once Tracy took over the game in the first Qtr it stopped being the Houston Rockets TEAM, playing the TEAM GAME known as Basketball. The other problem is that neither the Coach or Tracy knew what to do about it!!
No, I saw it differently. he played a good all around game in the first half. I did not see him pressed or doubled. I saw him guarded by AK solo, and he dribbled, hesitated and dumped the ball off to Bjax or scola. I screamed for him to at least go down shooting. but no, he left that to someone else.
first of all tmac did bad ass in the 1st half 2ndly he was tired, 3rdly too many defenders on him 4th no one was making free throws they lost their first 2 games last yr and they still won we can do the same
This is just not fair. He laid it all out there and could do no more. One guy can't carry an entire team. You need help. This is ridiculous.
How about that his teammates were not tough enough to hold up to the opponents that he had to do everything himself. He had to assist like a PG, score like a SG, rebound like a PF and block like a C for the 1st 3 quarters. One can only do so much.
MJ had SP, DR, SK,........ He could not do it all by himself either. Otherwise, he wouldn't fail to make playoffs when he played for Wizards.
Anybody arguing this point has obviously never played any sort of competitive bball in their life. Look at the stats, Riley, you want those standards raised who the hell do you think this guy is, a superhero with no fatigue???
sorry, it's about will. it's not that he couldn't do anything about it. he wouldn't. I'm done making excuses for him. And I don't recall him taking over the game at any point. He played a very good all around game in the first half. he disappeared in the 2nd half.
