Could be, as I don't have the history with him as others do.

But from my observations, he had an unhealthy obsession with Me-Mac.


lol, I'm sure you would have had a few discussions with him about a certain Tmac obsession. You thought the Darko lovers were bad, oy vey.

So much love on this board. I am glad you guys remember me. N4U I knew you were here. Surprising really but I can't blame you. That board went down hill. And yea you can find me on the GB...gotta venture out. The best stuff happen on the GB with Magic fans...Raptor fans...Laker fans and Knicks fans competing for homers of the year almost every day.

And its good to see you guys still obsess about T-Mac. I mean Yao goes down and all you can talk about his him. Its a tribute to his legacy really...he scorned you guys so badly that you can't let go.

Here's hoping Dwight breaks his ankle tonight.

i always did respect your posts on the general board...but why this?


and for the record, if anyone of us, said something even remotely close to this on another board, thered be no hesitation for a suspension, but of course for some reason people like you feel free to say stuff like that about our players...

Ah Iggy, I miss your pov. Weren't you the "offensive poster of the year" a couple times?

And yea, this just sucks for the Rockets. They win 12 straight, they're on a roll looking like the team we all knew they could be with the T-Mac/Yao combo, and then once again, an injury derails them.

T-Mac and Yao are just two of those players, unlucky. It's like the basketball gods just don't want either of them to succeed and when they start to get that glimmer of hope they yank it away from them.

T-Mac still remains one of my favorite players, and I wish him and Yao could get a break. I'd love to see a Magic/Rockets finals again!

Tough day for Rockets fans. It's a shame, they were on a hell of a hot streak. I'm beginning to think this T-Mac/Yao combination isn't ever going to work. They're both just too injury prone.

The freakishly tall centers (say above 7'2") seem to be considerably more injury prone. I wonder if anyone has ever done a decent scientific study on the subject (If I were a GM, I'd certainly kick in a few bucks to make that study happen considering what it can cost a team to rely on an injury prone player).

Like I said I don't know Iggy but if he wrote this then everything I said about him is true.

Gotta feel bad for McGrady. This is the most success he has ever had..12 game win streak in such a competitive conference. IMO T-Mac will ask for a trade and I will be with him on that. Both of em are injury prone but Yao's injuries always seem to be more serious and always involve his feet which makes you think he cannot support his weight when he falls and he falls a lot.


In that statement he is not conscerend about Yao's injury or the Houston Rockets. He is conscerened about TMac, and he is basically giving up on his team just because it's not in TMac's interest to play with an injury prone Yao. That is messed up. Also I have pissed plenty of people off on this board and I did'nt run away. I'm still a fan of the Magic and i don't care what any of these posters think. So if he is a fan of the Magic but he just runs off because he is following his favorite player leaves and then is ready to run off on Houston when thier chances are ruined because thier best player gets injured. Well I don't respect that all. Yao get's injured and he has to feel for TMac. That's total bs.

Is it required that everything related to the Rockets turn into a McGrady subject and then an Iggy subject?

This is locked.

I don't think it needs anymore explanation. Heck, it was OT to begin with.

Let's leave it in this thread and call it even, eh?
