I was waiting for Tmac to say something like, *Wait until next year when we improve our bench. There will be hell to pay!* In the back of my mind I was thinking...the Mavs better enjoy this win now. Because they wont be so happy next year when we're much better. 7 games series? Nah, I want to sweep them!
The Mavs can enjoy the win over us, but wait till they get swept by the Suns. It's going to be a good feeling of revenge. And hey, why should we be hanging our heads? We lost to a good team in 7 games and their star player sucked throughout the whole round. The Suns can learn a thing or two from us and shut him down again! GO SUNS!
t-mac should be f@#king proud of himself cause i sure am. he proved to be an all-court superstar and showed it completely on both ends of the court. he did every thing asked of him and more including slowing down a 7-foot pf on one end. there should be no question about whose better between those two, and actually i'd take t-mac over any player in the league right now. no question about it. i love this guy, i love this team, and sprinkle in some speed and any kinf of pf and we're very strong contenders. i wanted to atleast make the second round this season but i think what we've seen out of our 2 stars and how badass the people on our team are, i'm proud anyways.
That's true. He had to do everything himself. And finally he burned out. And now what I am worrying is Yao. He has to go back to China to play some f$$king game no one cares. How could he be energetic next year, even with so much time in chasing guards. Something has to be done save him. But I just couldn't see it.
I am worrying about yao too.... He 's too nice.... we have too many nice men in rox... that's bad.... we need more "bad" players like Mike James... I am worrying Yao will never be a hard "bad" player and he will never try to be.... He even gave his hand to Howard today ! that really drove me mad ! Foul your enemies hard ! give them lessons ! no cheap fouls ! The foul trouble has resulted in no defense at all !!!
I saw that too. Howard didn't take his hand. TMac pushed Yao away from him too. Tmac didn't want Yao to help him up.
Yao was ready to throw down last game. He gets a little more aggresive every eyar. I think he will be fine long term.
did he really say that? i hope so, cause that makes me happy. any transcripts for the press conference?
that is awesome. actually if i could pick something for t-mac to say besides some kind of insult about dirk's mom, that's probably it. " i'll have the last laugh." that's the kind of confidence i want my superstar to have coming into next season. honestly for atleast the remainder of his contract there is no player in the nba that i'd rather have on this team. these playoffs have shown it all to me. he is amazing.
I have no problem with showing good sportsmanship during a game and helping the opposition up. It just shows you are a person of good character. You can still want to whip their ass when play resumes and carry a grudge against them despite helping them.
Oh, my gosh. That sends chills through my spine because I know it is true. I can't wait for next season.
McGrady is such a good communicator and speaker, he is media savvy. The whole press conference sent chills down my body. The kid is determined, he was angry and biting his lips the whole time, but I can see hunger in him that I thought to myself, "I wouldn't want to be the rest of the league next season, T-Mac is going to tear out your heart and eat your children!" I was really looking forward to hearing something from Yao, but alas, he wasn't interviewed and wasn't at the Press Conf.
I See the future... Yao's been getting more & more aggressive...if playing in China every summer doesn't take that out of him, he's got a great future ahead of him. He'll get there guys, he's only in his third year. T-Macs just T-Mac..not much to say there- he'll be great next year as usual. Now...isn't Mobley's contract up this summer? I say resign Sura because of his heart & toughness. Sign Mobley & go after quality PF. Will Deke be back? he's really up there in age, but I think he still wants to play. I think he's got another decent year in him. Barry? he's streaky but when he's hot..he's real hot.
