Bye bye.
Yao will be traded? But Nash is a very good half-court PG too.
Check their percentages when they were actually contending. There is no doubt Tmac is a superstar, but we would go nowhere with his inconsistent...
Maybe it would be all good after we trade Yao. No. we'll have many "Tmac has no heart, trade him" threads then. :)
Sure. They all shot far more than 41%. All championship teams have ~50% go-to scorers. Magic is not a contender. Lebron is shooting near 50%...
Many posters in the game thread were furious about this TO. I think we should get over with it. I watch Duncan and Shaq plenty of times. They...
Check the FG% of all go-to scorers on contending teams.
:D Veli Veli good observation.
I still feel uncomfortable with volume scorers like Tmac, A.I., etc. They shoot a below average FG% to get their pts. Their teammates may be...
If Yao was so efficient, why shouldn't he be more assertive and aggressive? He would have contributed more to the team and stolen a win for us.
I think it's pretty hard to get the ball to low post players now. Shaq doesn't get the ball nearly enough in Miami even he's much better at...
;) I am a Rox fan and Yao fan. It's much easier to defend Yao as a YOF on other teams' forum. That's why I support a Yao trade as long...
Factoring his role on defense, he IS a Franchise player. Who would you take? Yao or Randolph, a 20/10 guy but atrocious on defense.
:( According to my memory, excluding garbage time shots, Tmac shoots THAT bad more often than not.
I like the Rockets forum. :D We are always talking about trading Franchise players. Fortunately we always have two Franchise players, and...
That's right. For more than face value, we can only trade Yao to Lakers, Knicks, Warriors, Clippers, or Nets. Not many good options though....
Look around the league, I am not sure we could get good enough offers for him: Boozer: a 20/10 guy, but his lazy defense is exposed badly this...
I hope you realize this is Tmac's running team. The new players were brought in to complement Tmac first and Yao second.
My point is that if only used as a role player, then Yao's not worth keeping because we could get stars for him.
But his +/- numbers are misable this year. This team is not built around Yao. He's more like a role player now. We can get better offer for Yao...
