Coming from the kid who has Manu dead last. Your credibility is lost.
Dunno. You put Elton Brand second on your list? :-?

we can't assume that everyone is 100% healthy because T-mac has never been 100% healthy..
A healthy T-mac is an oxymoron...
A healthy T-mac would be better than kobe... A healthy tmac may even be better than jordan lol

Actually, there have been years/stretches where he was healthy, he's just never had the consistent focus of a Jordan, or even Kobe. That's one explanation of the Yaoless win streak phenomenon. It wakes Tracy up and gives him that consistent fire that he otherwise doesn't always have.

Yao missed this entire season? Fact is T-Mac, up to this point, has missed more games than Yao.

Look at the Rockets record with Yao as compared to with T-Mac. It's obvious that the team does better when he's on the court. FYI - Yao will have missed more games than McGrady this season, and has missed more games over the last 3 seasons than McGrady has.

As far as importance to his team, he should be #1 far and away. It's like watching two different teams when he isn't on the court - 1 a playoff team, 1 a lottery bound team.

In terms of importance to their respective teams.


Sorry Kosta, this list is flawed.

Firstly, TMAC would have to be at the top of the list. He's proven his value to the Rockets this season, I think that's safe to say.

Secondly, Manu is the 6th man on the Spurs. That would have to put him at the bottom of the list, in terms of importance to their respective teams.

This is not taking anything away from Manu as a player, but he's not as important to the Spurs as Baron Davis is to the Warriors.

I think that Baron and TMac when healthy and motivated are a step above all others here. Then AI is next, and the worst here is clearly Amare.

And just b/c he made the ASG this year over many of the guys here, I will say that Roy is much worse than any of these players.
