Will T-Mac get past the First Round

[N41D]

I wanna see how they respond to the losing streak being broken... They've got LA, Boston, New Orleans, Golden State, Phoenix and San Antonio (the last 4are road trips) before the end of the month, and I wanna see how they respond coming off a loss.

There's still about 20 games left, so it'll be interesting to see if they're peaking a bit too soon...

Unfortunately no, and once they're eliminated, I hope the Rockets trainers take away T-Mac's shoe laces and belt...

I know this. All the teams in the history of the game to throw up 18 or 19 or more game winning streaks won it all that season. So that is pressure rightthere on Houston. But due to Yao, I do understand and give them a pass if they don't win it all. BUT........if they don't at least get out of thefirst round. If it happens AGAIN, I don't ever want to see TMac's name on NT again. Houston fans should agree that is only fair to take his nameoutta their vocabulary for good.

wow, u said the exact same thing as tmac did yesterday. he said he knew the streak will end sometime, but he wants to see how they respond in the next fewgames. i think they're prepared. we all know the streak will end sooner or later.

u do know that kobe hasn't advanced without shaq (without a star player too) right?

right now, this team's talent is not even CLOSE to any of the top teams. what he's doing is amazing. his leadership is on another level.

Yes sir I do. And you do know that those teams had Smush Parker, Kwame Brown, and Luke Walton as 3 outta the 5 starters. We are also talking about 2seasons, just two. TMac we are talking about 10. TEN. And he has had some questioable starters in his day, sure, but he's also had Yao and done squat.

And for how many years have I seen you rep TMac and his amazing leadership and other level and yadi yadi ya, and then out in the first round and you disapeartil next season. So you're whole another level stuff is tired.

What I said is true. He gets a pass if they don't win it all even with the big streak. I'm not sweatin that. But he has to get out of the firstround period to ever be even considered a decent player. Til he does that, he's no better then Corey Maggette in my eyes.

um, kobe MISSED the playoffs in his first yr without shaq WITH ODOM & BUTLER. so dawg, don't tell me he had zero talent. the reason the lakers arebetter this yr is b/c kobe finally TRUSTED his teammates, which it took him 10 years to do.

sure, at least corey maggette got past the first round a few yrs ago. i don't think u can compare tmac to him

Yes, the season that Kobe missed a month, Odom missed a few weeks and the coach retired because he couldn't hack it. That team was simply peicesof a team. Divac was out damn near the whole season, Chucky Atkins was the starting point guard. Walton and George were the only holdovers along with Bryantfrom the previous season. So don't act like that team was built to win or anything like that. It was a pure rebuilding year and they've done a goodjob since. But this has nothing to do with Kobe. That man has 3 titles. And he did that when he was 20 years old. This is about TMac. He's had plentyof time to just win one series. Just one. So we'll see how this season plays out.

And I didn't mean to insult Corey with the comparison. He's done more in his career then Tracy has.

I see, so now we see what is truly important to you as a TMac fan. #'s. Winning isn't important, just put up numbers. How noble of you. Yetyou sit and judge the way Kobe plays and the way he gets it done. That's interesting.

Winning of course. It's all that matters. Tracy can keep all her numbers and accolades. If he don't win something soon, his career willbe pretty suspect.

 

[gordon gartrelle]

Just last week people were discounting them from even making the playoffs. I think they can get past the first round depending on who their opponent is, butthey stand a good chance.

Honestly though, is a second round visit that much better? It's not like he got to the Western ConferenceFinals or anything. If he had done that, I could see where you would have a point, but a second round visit isn't really that much better (especially if you factor in numbers).

kobe aint getting out of the first round without shaq even this year.

Horry has 7 rings. And imo I think he belongs in the hall of fame. I know that is an unpopular opinion but if you were to show a video of thegreatest moments in NBA history and of course that would have to include playoffs and playoff performances, Horry would be in there a dozen times. So myopinion is how could you not have that guy in the hall? I know he doesn't have numbers, I know he was on good teams, superstars etc, but what he did inall those series is remarkable. While your boy just tries to win one series, just one, Robert Horry has won something like SIXTY FIVE series. I would takeRobert Horry on my team before TMac any day of the week.

 

[shuges]

Corey > Tracy....

Ok, let's see how many GMs would take Maggette before McGrady.

I don't know if dudes on here realize that when they make comments like that just for attention, it makes people not take some of the other stuff they sayseriously.

Either way, I'm not surprised this thread has turned into a "Bash Tracy McGrady" thread.

And as usual, the bashing is led by a Laker fan.

So my opinion is how could you not have that guy in the hall? I know he doesn't have numbers, I know he was on good teams, superstars etc, but what he did in all those series is remarkable. While your boy just tries to win one series, just one, Robert Horry has won something like SIXTY FIVE series. I would take Robert Horry on my team before TMac any day of the week.


that's the stupidest thing i have ever heard. you're comparing a guy who plays 12-15 mins a game (and the past 6-8 yrs who simply take the reg.season off), to a guy who has to carry franchises. please, stop before you embarrass yourself. if by your comparison, why don't we just rank players bythe amount of rings they win?

It's ok to think T-Mac is a joke for not getting into the second round.

It's ok to not like T-Mac period.

But your basketball opinion is null and void when you would rather have guys like Horry + Magette on your team over T-Mac.

Null and void.

There's still about 20 games left, so it'll be interesting to see if they're peaking a bit too soon...

wow, u said the exact same thing as tmac did yesterday. he said he knew the streak will end sometime, but he wants to see how they respond in the next few games. i think they're prepared. we all know the streak will end sooner or later.

It's the absolute truth. 100% fact. Once they get beat and have the air knocked out of them a little bit, how they respond the next couple of gameswill be far more telling of what this team is going to do than this 19 game win streak is telling us now... If they get punched in the mouth and the streakends, and they come out and follow it up with a couple more losses, then what?
