The Rockets, in the first 12 games of the winning streak, still managed impressive blowouts against teams with either TMAC bringing a 30 + Game or just Yao. Sometimes both of em had a 30 + game together in some of these blowouts where they either got out of the way or distracted the opposing team with double teams so that the other could operate better. They even knew when to get out of the way so that one could do an emphatic dunk or pass it to a Carl Landry for a duce or throw it out. T-Mac and Yao can play great together and the first 12 games of the streak prove it. Plus there are enough weapons on the team that they could defer to for assistance. The team chemistry incredible as will post and prior to Yao being out for the season. Please consider these factors and know that this team can be and is a contender. We just need Deke to defend well in some portions while collecting a couple boards and a Healthy Landry to get the dunks and put backs along with Scola substituting for most of Yao's duties in the paint offensively and we can still win a title! It can be done. Trust me.

Basically Yao and T-Mac have far greater chemistry as evidenced by the 12 streak win prior to the 10 in a row without Yao. They've both had games blowing out teams while achieving 30 points a piece simultaneously. They also know how to defer to each other when necessary and avoid hindering each other while even assisting each other perform better. So critics saying they don't have chemistry and won't ever be able to work together are wrong.

Okay the team now has better role players that can score and go off too. With the chemistry developed we only need a healthy Landry to compete against any team in this league and win a championship this year even without the services of Yao.

I don't think this is relevant topic to be discussed. I have NOT heard anyone say that Yao and McGrady have no chemistry. If someone did, they are clearly delusional; our record speaks for itself.

Magic proclaims they don't all the time and doesn't know **** about the strides they've mades since day back in 2004. Just watch Inside with Magic on crew as well. He says "It's not working and will never work, trade Yao or TMAC." BS!!!

What irks me more is how he implied to keep Yao and trade TMac. Magic Johnson is a business man and knows nothing about analyzing the game. He's very undetailed and doesn't know the specifics. Such as how Deke protects the paint and blocks shots but false to realise Yao alters shots and gets rebounds as well just as good or better than Deke. Yao also averages over 2 blocks per a game this season. The whole Inside the NBA crew doesn't seem to know jack.

Magic Johnson is a proven genius who may even be as smart as Barky so it has to be true.
Proof of pudding? The Magic Hour.
