Talk about bandwagoneers. You guys criticize the media for showing the Rockets "no love". Yet the so called Rocket fans, flip flop on their own damn team within 24 hours.

I don't know how anyone could complain about Sura's play last night. 21 points, 11 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 turnover. He played great.

and he shot less than 50% and can`t hit his free throws...those possessions need to go to yao....scoreboard

First of all, T-Mac is doing the PG job as a bonus since we don't have good passers on this team besides him and Barry. His job is to SCORE, that is what we are paying him for.

That fact he can defend, rebound, steal, and even occasionally block a shot or two - and put on a passing exhibition to feed his teammates - is really all a plus.

The way we are using Tracy is not really ideal (as a point-forward), but seriously, if he plays PG, then who the heck do you start at SF? He is not a PG, and he didn't sign up to be one, the fact that he pretty much runs our offense, at least until Barry gets in and helps him out with the passing, is pretty impressive.

The title of the thread is pretty stupid, because you are implying that McGrady has to be EITHER a passer or a shooter, when in fact he does both pretty well.

The problem is we are stuck with the PG we have right now, who are more of scorers/shooters than they are passers. But really, name me more than 3-4 teams in the league who have "pure" PGs. That is just the card we are dealt, and we have to make the most of it.

he does both pretty well....he shot 43% percent for the season...yao shoots 55% ...who do you think should get more shots!
I am not saying that he should be the point gaurd I am just saying that he should get the ball into yao more and take less shots and overall we would be a better team...he still plays like an alan iverson scoring title guy a lot instead of like a larry bird who passed the ball to keven mchale when he was hot and bird was struggling with his shot...and look how high % shooter bird is than tracy

the Dallas Mavericks are a good team. I don't think any team in the league could sweep them. Roster overhauls after one loss are not needed.

The great part about this trainwreck is that you can actually vote for both options simultaneously. I'm not sure what they mean but I'm definitely in favor of them. Both.

1.) All of our resources were tied up in the upcoming McGrady deal at draft time. We had a late 2nd rounder and no first rounder. Why would the Bulls include him in the Mutombo deal? We destroyed them bad enough on that swap.
you forget that mut. played like crap for the last 4 years and the guy makes 19 million a year...he is only playing for a new contract this year...he has dogged it for the last 4 years

2.) He's so good you just mudered his name. I fail to see how adding a 41% shooter and a 35% 3P% shooter who is yet to play a hint of defense is better than Wesley's tough D and proven shot.

come on it is late at night, look at the team he has aroung him, and look at how many open shots wesley gets and he has "sucked" for being a "pure shooter" who gets wide open looks....and the kid has a lot more possible upside....defense can be taught with a better coach...than scott...who is just given jobs with no real coaching skills...it is a lot easier to win in the east when you have kidd, jeff., denver`s powar forward, and no big men in the east.

3.) How many rings does Stockton have?

you cannot get anybody to play in utah and you know that`s not fair...they got as much out of their ability as any team could given their overall talent base! MJ EVEN SAID THAT THEY GAVE THE BULLS THEIR TOUGHEST CHALLENGE!!!!

Carlos Boozer, Carlos Arroyo, Corey Maggette and Mehmet Okur disagree with you. And they had one of the most productive mad: ) PFs of all time.

If MJ said it, it must be the gospel. I swear, Kwame Brown is the next Kevin Garnett. Congrats, they were the 2nd best team a couple times in the mid 90s, just like we were the best twice in the mid 90s.
