    When T-Mac is healthy and plays up to 100 percent he's better than Jordan was.

    If he can just get past the first round he's going to get all time status probably top 10.

    If he can win just one title he will be compared with Jordan, maybe even ranked above him.

    Yeah with just one title.

    The only thing seperating him from the others is no title and biased media.

    But if healthy and in attack mode he's clearly THE best player in the world.

    Some of you not only have TMac colored glasses on, but had permanent TMac Lasik done on you.

    All of them are capable scorers, but Kobe and T-Mac has the edge because of their range and ability to hit the most difficult of shots, though T-Mac has greater range and a slightly higher degree of difficulty. T-Mac is also the best passer and decision maker of them all. Even without Yao, we are playing better than any of their teams. A slight exception to Heat without Shaq but they play in the horribly weak east and Odom's impact doesn't compare to Yao. Cleveland has been healthy all season, and have won games without Lebron.

    T-Mac clearly is the best defender, along with Kobe. Kobe's D is a lil overrated, but only because he's been on All-Defense teams. He's not a lockdown defender nor has he ever shown to be one, just above average. One game holding AI to 11pts in a half is not convincing me. T-Mac has shown that he can play consistent lockdown D(see Dirk in 05) Lebron and Wade can't stay in front their man, they just gamble in passing lanes and jump for weakside blocks.

    With the exception of Lebron, T-Mac is not the best free throw shooter. But I feel he needs to step back like Nick Van Exel and it'll rise to about 80%. He also doesn't take it to the hole as much, but then again Lebron just forces it and Wade knows he's getting a whistle whenever he leaves the ground.

    T-Mac is the only player who hasn't won a playoff series. Enough said.

    he is also has had the least amount of talent around him. every series tmac has played in his team has been the lower seed, which given over the course of time should lose.

    had the nba only given tmac a playoffs series like they did lebron and wade it could have been a different story.

    the best team mcgrady had was the rockets two years ago and they were the 5th seed facing what should have been the 3rd seed that year, not the 4th

    Kobe has played team game much better this year.

    Maybe privately Phil said last season, "Kobe this year you can shoot the lights out, shoot all you want, as much as you want, see how we go, ok?"

    Then this season he would have been, "See, we weren't good enough d******d, now try playing more like a team mate, and I guarantee we win more, ok?"

    See stupid, put lebron or wade or kobe on those hopeless magic teams and see even if they win 30 to 40 games let alone the playoffs. he took a Team that would struggle even coolege ball and was on the verge of upsetting the powerhouse team like the pistons. there is noway Wade or Lebron could achive tat with those amount of or correctly lack of talents at there disposal.

    T-Mac has to play in the toughest division and with the least amount of media attention.

    "Brain Type" and "Shaq" are words that should not be in the same sentence.

    ARE YOU CRAZY!!! better then jordon?? the best basketball player in the world!!

    Tmac is arguably one of the best in today's game!! i'd take him over any of the mention players..

    one thing i noticed about tmac is he sometimes get too cocky... in the past, when he was up in playoff series or doing well in a season, he would get too over confident, then end up not able to back up his comments...
