    There was also a game against Cleveland where he scored 36 points and made 8 3's in the 1st half alone. He only played a couple minutes in the 2nd half before leaving with an injury. What an explosive scorer.

    63 points is his playoff career high (and a NBA playoff record). His career high is 69 points against Cleveland.

    nobody's saying DWade is better than TMac or even Steve Francis at this point. But c'mon you must have seen the following clip right?

    pump fake at the three point line, dribble, hop step, two handed flush in traffic.

    WOW.

    I'd consider T-mac's ratio over Wade's any day. If you think his assit/to ratio is "OK" for a 'shooting gaurd', T-mac's is GREAT for not only a shooting gaurd, but for one who had to handle the ball as much as he did in Orlando. And since you're not saying Wade is better than T-mac, than I won't go further. :p

    As for the rest, you'd seriously take Shaq of right now, and Francis over T-mac and Yao? I mean, seriously? All joking aside?

    You've seen the trouble Steve has adapting his game in favor of a compitent big man in the middle. And of course I've mentioned Shaq being on the decline of his career, Kobe not getting him the ball in the playoffs didn't help him much either, and Kobe's a better entry passer than Steve.

    It's quite obvious to say, T-mac and Yao can feed off eachother, and play off their games with a hell of a lot more success than Steve and Shaq. It's really no contest in chemistry, compatibility, and combined success.
