I don't.Who thinks that T-Mac has 0 BBIQ, is a ballhog and instead of doing what he needs to do to help his team win he just tries to get his numbers.

Take yesterday's game as example he scored 32 pts. but needed to take 31 fg attemps to do it and of course his team lost. He needs to realize that houston and every team in the world plays better when they play as a team and don't have a jackass trying to be "the man" while shooting 33% from the field.

Tmac is a great passer.
if he sucks at anything it's defense
It doesn't matter if you take 30 shots per game.
So is this the only T-mac game you have ever watched? I am going to go with yes, because otherwise you would have never made this tread. If you quietly leave we will forgive you.
I look at the box score every game and i watch every game i can. It's not the first time he takes 30 shots and makes only 10 or 12
That is not good for you, now you have gone from being ignorant, to be an idiot. I'm sorry
A big part of the 22 game win streak was that T-Mac was feeding his team mates and they were actually making shots. Rafer Alston in particular was playing out of his mind. Their 3-5 mark since the end of the streak is due in large part to those role players coming back down to earth. He's up against the same wall right now that he was in Orlando. He's can be a great passer (I think he was averaging 6 and a half assists per game last year under a pretty slow Yao driven Van Gundy offense) but who is he supposed to pass to?
You'd think he has some bball iq after leading his team in that long winning streak without their franchise center
If Amare took 30 shots in a game, he'd score 70 points.
I agree with the first part he was feeding his teammates and that's why they were winnig.
But then he stopped doing that. if his teammates aren't making shots the solution isn't taking 24 ft fade away jumpers with 2 guys on you. He needs to keep feeding his teammates until they get in rythm and take his shot when he has to.
And the answer to your last question is: to anyone who's open.
oh and by the way Scola scored 20 on 9 fg attemps so isn't like every other rocket sucked yesterday.
Why don't you try posting your thoughts on this topic instead of making an dumbass out of yourself by insulting someone who's trying to have a civilize discussion?That is not good for you, now you have gone from being ignorant, to be an idiot. I'm sorry
Do you remember that earlier this season when Mcgrady was injured the rockets (found their iden y as a team) and went in a pretty good streak also and most of the rockets fans were asking to trade McGrady?You'd think he has some bball iq after leading his team in that long winning streak without their franchise center
that's why when he cameback he changed his mind and stopped beign such a ballhog but lately he's returned to his old selfish mode.
I would disagree, Amare takes all the shots he can IMO.
By that I mean, all the shots where Nash gives him the ball in a perfect position where he can jump really high and dunk.
Wrong.
He has shot 30+ shots twice. In those two games, he scored 42 and 34 points.
Not quite 70.
A year or two ago I would have absolutely agreed with you, but STAT's stepped up his offensive diversity this season. His mid range jumper has gotten even better and he's started putting some polish on his post up and drives. He's not just a one trick pony anymore.
Personally I think if Stoudemire tried taking 30 shots a game Shaq would swallow him whole in the locker room for taking touches away from The Big Cactus.
Historically, the Rockets have done better when TMac plays and Yao is out than vice versa. TMac is not a selfish player.
he'd be completely unaware of it though since he can't count that high.
This year the rockets started playing like an elite team when McGrady went down with an injury. And that's because they started to play as a team. Do you think that they would've done that with yao out and McGrady taking 30 shots per game 'cause he thinks he needs to carry the team? the rockets were lucky that before Yao, T-Mac was the one who got injured and they were able to find their iden y as team during that stretch.
I was being facetious, but just out of curiosity, when were those two games?
I'd like to solve the puzzle.
TMac : Scola :: Parker : Ginobili
I went and looked for myself to see when Amare Stoudemire shot 30 shots in one game. Both games occurred in the 2004-2005 WCF against the San Antonio Spurs, when the Spurs tried to shut everyone down defensively and let Amare go one-on-one with Duncan.
That occurred 3 years ago, when Amare wasn't nearly as polished offensively. Nice try, stretch, but you failed miserably. Amare is better today than he was in 2005, by leaps and bounds.
Realistically, I think if Amare took 30 FGA in a game now, he'd rack up 55 or more easily.
when did i say something about parker? i think you confused me with another guy. Please don't try to disqualify me as an objective poster just because i think (like several BB specialists) that Ginobili is a good defender.
Give me ONE example where i said something that's not even reasonable and it's clearly BS 'cause i'm from Argentina. You won't find any so please leave me alone.
They began finally clicking and adjusting to Adelman's system. Correlation does not equal causation.
Considering they kept their streak going for another 8 games by playing defense and running Adelman's motion offense, the answer is yes. So he took 30 FGA in one game. So what? What's your point? One game does not a player make.Do you think that they would've done that with yao out and McGrady taking 30 shots per game 'cause he thinks he needs to carry the team?
Yeah, the Rockets were really lucky that their best player missed significant time with injuries.the rockets were lucky that before Yao, T-Mac was the one who got injured and they were able to find their iden y as team during that stretch
They would've come together regardless.
If you ask rockets fans at that time almost everyone would've said that the reason they started clicking was because McGrady wasn't there to be a ballhog.
He's gone 10/30 from the field a lot of times this season.Considering they kept their streak going for another 8 games by playing defense and running Adelman's motion offense, the answer is yes. So he took 30 FGA in one game. So what? What's your point? One game does not a player make.
I thought that Houston best player was Yao.Yeah, the Rockets were really lucky that their best player missed significant time with injuries.
They would've come together regardless.
