    Hawks Rotation sans Joe Johnson
    Mike Bibby
    Josh Childress
    Marvin Williams
    Josh Smith
    Al Horford
    ZaZa Pachulia

    Rockets Rotation sans Tracy Mcgrady
    Rafer Alston
    Luther Head
    Shane Battier
    Luis Scola
    Dikembe Mutombo
    Bobby Jackson

    Is there really any argument for the Rockets having a better team w/o their star? Please reply to this and say we have more talented players so i can begin disregarding your posts.

    hehe...Joe Johnson has Bibby, Horford, and smith

    Tmac > JJ no question about that TMAC is more consistent as weird as that sounds

    Bibby > Alston WHOEVER Argues this is a hypocrit because mass numbers of people on this board wanted bibby

    Horford > Scola He plays with more intensity and there is a reason hes #2 in the rookie rankings over scola

    Smith > Battier Does the same defense as Battier, but scores more and is a better all around player

    The reason we are better than the Hawks...we have Yao Ming. With our current roster without Yao...we have a weak roster

    Mediocre teams have less pressure pitted against them. I mean he could put up random threes and not get yelled at, even if he missed the shot.

    For Houston, the entire team has more pressure. Every shot counts, every move you make counts. So he doesn't get a chance to relax.

    I'm not going to bash u and I agree with ur idea about taking over. If u were to compare bibby,horford and smith vs battier,scola, and alston, who would u take to play with?

    Tmac is only better than JJ if he's %100 healthy...and he hasnt been
    that since his first year in Houston.

    right now i'd do JJ for Mac and I wouldnt even blink.

    Um, I don't know, maybe the 2002-2003 season where he shot 38% from 3 and 79% from the line. :rolleyes:

    Hate to burst your bubble, but without Yao, Houston is a mediocre team. We just overachieved a bit.

    How many times has T-Mac done this as a Rocket?

    Not many. And how times has he done it this year? Very few.

    Just accept the fact, he is declining so quick now.
