    I guess you didn't watch Game 1 then. 24 points in 25 points is not a very easy task. Especially when it was all in the 1st half.

    I do want him to finish his job in Game 6. He's already the best center in the NBA, this will only make him look better to the John Hollinger wanna-bes.

    What happens if a role player scored 24 points in one game?

    Would that make him dominate?

    i think the 1st half of game 1 to secure home court advantage was huge. hopefully, we see it come to fruition in game 6.

    in 25 minutes? Yes that would make he dominated the game. Wouldn't mean he dominates the league.

    1 Game doesn't count that much. It just gives you a win and home-court that's all. :rolleyes:

    A healthy McGrady of course. Look at Yao right now. He gets double teamed and fronted... he can't be effective and his numbers are way under 20 a game. But with T-Mac he will drop 20-30 points anytime.

    Wow. 40% BBS members do not realize that TMac has never been healthy, mentally. You can put up all the 28-7-7 numbers to support your argument but the fact is, he has never won a playoff series in his 10+ year career.

    joe johnson is going to win one as the best player and he has SUCKED for the most part.

    carmelo is going to win one and he's simply a scorer.

    case -> a good team.

    look at the heat. one guy simply can't do everything.

    Well he wasn't healthy. But I remember. The whole team sucked then.

    Probably because Melo has Billups as his leader. Hawks are winning simply because they have Homecourt advantage.

    T-Mac in his prime had bad luck, but currently post-prime he's just quitting on his team.

    Yao is still playing and he's healthy and I respect him as being part of the legacy of great big men that defines the Houston Rockets, Moses Malone, Ralph Sampson, the Dream.

    This year has shown that clearly the person that represents the ideals of the Rockets spirit is Yao.

    Chosen by Rudy T himself.
