why? the rockets are playing without Yao and yet they're still managing to make this a relatively competitive series. The Jazz were the clear favorites coming into the series so it's no surprise that they have the lead.
Right now I would rather be McGrady than say someone like Carmelo who's team has just been blown out 3 games in a row.

I doubt it. Suns going out in the first round if a bigger story than McGrady failing to beat a team without Yao...a team he couldn't beat with Yao last year.
I dunno if its quite set in yet. But the Suns are going to get swept. They are going out in the first round. That is huge news. You are talking about a team that made a trade that was supposed to win them a title. Supposed to beat SA. There is no bigger news or bigger disappointment than this.

^^^ Yea but for some reason the media over looks that stuff. It's always, "See, TMac loses in the first round again" or "TMac cant get a team out of the first round." They'll ignore all the problems the Rockets have and just go right after TMac like they always do. It's the same stuff they do to Lebron, Kobe, etc... But yea, Melo has it pretty bad too. He SHOULD get it worse then TMac. But will he? Who knows.

delonte west because he is the ugliest guy in the NBA
cassell because he looks like ET
Kobe and the jazz-getting all this false hope beating a lesser team (in the nuggets) and a Yao Ming less rockets just to eventually lose to the other or the spurs or Boston later on

false hope? they've EMBARRASSED the nuggets and broke their competitive spirit. It's one thing if the games happened to be close, but they are blowing them out with very little effort.
The game I watched last night was hard to watch because of the nuggets performance. They played like they were losers... zero defense, showing no signs of hustle up and down the court, complete lack of any execution on offense.
I really hope they can come away with 1 or 2 games before this series comes to an end... or at least go down fighting.
I have a great deal of respect for this Lakers team though. I think the only team that could possibly derail them are the Spurs.

Clay Bennett....idiot leaving a paper trail proving himself to be a liar.
Steve Kerr, He took a risk but they really miss Marion..nothing against Shaq he's played well but why destroy a team that was possibly a suspension away from winning a title? It wasn't as if the Suns window was closed.
DeShawn Stevenson....DUMBASS. Why the hell would a borderline starter call out Lebron James? What an idiot.

I think if you put McGee back then, he would get those blocks just as easily as Russell did. Russell's athleticism was well ahead of the players of his time, and that's about it.
