Today Tmac played like he was in a pregame warm-up the whole game. I mean it look like he was taking a stroll down Memorial Park. He would just jog up the court like there wasn't anything going on there! I think him and Yao have lost a lot confidence and by the way we played today, there is no way we will be a championship team with Tmac just playing like it's practice. If this persist then I see him gone in the near future.
it looked like it wuz mental as well as physical. I think he might let the kobe and him comparison get to him and he just plays pretty badly against the guy, and the fact that hes sick and injured. I love the guy but is there a team willing to eat 21 mil so we can get an up and coming star. Maybe a team close to being playoff bound that needs a superstar to boost them over the hump. I am guessing some team maybe in the east. Id hate to let mac go but honestly he needs to sit till hes tmac to the rack again. Get Healthy..........that should have been our slogan instead of get red
Come on guys........T-mac'll pull through we're only what....7 games into an 82 game season... PLENTY of time
He said it was his worst game of his carrer. Well Tracy, there are no EXCUSES. You are too good to score 3 points in a game. Gotta bounce back quickly. Make sure that flu doesn't bother you at all against Suns.
Tracy should show up like Steve Francis... in a suit. If you put on any nba uniform representing any team come out a play like it's always your last game. When it comes to being competitive this guy is a amateur. I always question him as a professional period and I know the guy has talent. No matter how much talent you have playing with a competitive edge will always overcome playing with a lot of excuses. That is what separates winners from losers. A lot players are feeling pain but it's the guys who overcome the obstables in their way to get to success... imo you have to have a competitive edge to do that otherwise you will continue to fail through your excuses.
I totally agree. He scored 26 against best defense in the world, than he followed with 30 against Blazers. There is no way the knee was feeling great during those games and suddenly it went down. There is no way. It is not knee, he can drive, score every time he wants. He hasn't mentioned about that knee for a long time which means it is getting better because Tracy always speaks about his injuries. It is mental or what. Looks like there is completly no chemistry in the locker room. Yao looks depressed. Ron has been awful as well. It will be tough to build chemistry we we can obviously do that. And once we do that it will be tough to compete with us. Right now we don't play like a team.
Actually, Tmac's performance reminds me of Manu in last wc finals. Both were not 100% and shut down by the lakers. He will be fine. I think the rockets did not watch last finals' games carefully. How did BOS beat LAL?!
TRADE TMAC TRADE TMAC....TMAC freaking sucks ass.....We should of gotten Allen Iverson. Atleast he doesn't cry and act all brittle. Lazy eyed Tmac is DONE....Unless he proves himself or unless we trade him, we are going to get out of First Round Once again because of TMACS Girly ass...
Oh and SCOLA ....please don't freaking do layups that everyone can block. It is soo obvious. Also start Aaron Brooks.......Start Carl Landry.....and Please sit McGrady out since his ass is not helping the team by any means. Put Von Wafer in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you and that is all....How about them Mavs losing to Clippers??? Pathetic...Atleast we lost to a very good team even though we couldn't put points 2nd half of the game and our defense sucked ass 4th quarter of Laker's game. Okay time to study...... PS: RESIGN DIKEMBE MUTUMBO...Rockets Managment is killing me here...All our bigs are small.....YAO can't block. I mean when is he ever going to learn that he is 7'6 and he won't draw charges because he is doing it all wrong. For GOD sakes your 7'6 and you have been in the league for 5 years. Have the balls to block shots and be the dominant player we know you as. Stop being such a girl.
Yeah, you're totally right. Not a knee jerk reaction at all. Let's just blow up the team and tank for Rubio. Let's do it.
Something is up with tmac and I think it is affecting the whole team. There was a quote where adleman said Rox are playing too much one on one ball and that Shane was very important cause he has a high bball IQ and moves the ball around, like barry. Seems like a shot at Tmac. Seriously, watch Tmac play the last two games, he wasnt even trying. No way in hell was he trying. I dont care how sick you are, one field goal in two games, even dorsey and Hayes can outdo that.
what pissed me off is he would just stand about 5 feet back from the three point line and watch. he just stood there doing nothing, Talk about a court side seat.
Mcgrady does not need to sit out. He needs to play through it but I think sometimes he needs other guys to shoot better to keep his coverage less. All guards have slumps at shooting but a better shooter than Alston would help this team more than TMac sitting out. If he's hurt then thats one thing but I think he'll get better or maybe he's hurt and is waiting for Battier to return.
I'm not going to take any credit away from what Tmac has done in the past but last night, you could just see a lack of passion for the game. You don't see that sense of urgency or aggression. Just look at Kobe after a shot or a nice play, you could just see how motivated he was. That was a different story with Tmac. Even with Yao, he at least showed frustration and disappointment. Tmac got blocked by Kobe on an open layup, and then next thing you see is him giggling with Kobe. Maybe its just me but as a fierce competitor, I wouldn't take that lightly.
