    Re: McGrady 8-8 3 pointers with 3 mins to go.......

    A few thoughts... he was 8-8 yet his team had a one or two point lead... I guess when you're hot, you're hot but T-Mac seems to have a lot of huge games in losses. Sure he doesn't have the best team, but ...

    Rex Chapman once shot 10-10 three's for the Heat if I remember correctly Everyone gets hot one time or another.

      T-Mac isn't a leader. He doesn't play defence unless he's playing well on offence. But you just can't tell someone to pass when they're shooting 100% on 8 3-point attempts. Kobe doesn't pass when he's on fire. Iverson doesn't pass when he's on fire. Jordan never passed when he was on fire.

      McGrady's a shooting guard. His job is to score. It's not his fault that the starter in the PG position is [censored] Tyronn Lue. . And btw, when you're superstars leave, you will lose games. Saying it was T-Mac's fault tonight is just ********. The Lakers were playing like [censored] and they still had Payton.

            Hey now, the Lakers won some games when it was just Payton. The Ukraine Train (Slava) stepped up.

            Now, on to the topic.

            If anyone is shooting 8-8 from distance, you feed him the ball. It doesn't matter who it is, you get him the ball. Obviously he is feelin it. Now, I also liked what HMcCoy said above. You try to get others involved also, so that there are multiple people getting points and spreading the opposing teams defense. Granted, the other players might not hit their shots, but if you never give them the chance, then how will they ever know?

            I will admit, I don't watch many Magic games, so I don't really know how their team/offense/defense operates. I just see the numbers. But from what I am hearing, it's either TMac scores a lot, and they don't win, or TMac plays team ball, and if his teammates hit, then they win. It's a tough thing to do, when you don't belive in the players you play with.

                  Re: McGrady 8-8 3 pointers with 3 mins to go.......

                  ShaKobe that's all fine, but the guy always feeds his guys the ball. When the magic was losing likr there was no tomorrow, you know why? He was passing the ball and his teammates weren't hitting anything. he hit 8 3's in a half, that doesn't make the guy a hotdog, and a play breaker. i've seen enough of those games to know he could've easily achieved a TD through a long stretch of games if his teammates hit their shots. Those guys were missing open lay-ups, and like Gooden would force shot after shot on double teams.

                  Not that he was passing at that moment, but he was hot, and there was nothing the D could do anyway. Now I don't remember people saying, Kobe should've passed when he hit those 12 3's. I don't recall that when Michael Redd, Tim Thomas, Spreewell, or Ray Allen all hit 8 straight 3's that they should've been passing the ball. It was one hot half, and any other time the guy passes as he should.

                        That's cool. Like I said, I don't watch too many Magic games and that if the guy is hot, keep feeding him.

                        Management needs to do a better job with that team. Too many pieces are the same and not enough low-post or point presence.

                              i agree...keep feeding TMac the ball until he misses one or two. People say it made his teammates cold, but if he passes all the time then he never gets into that rhythm, and could never take advantage of it. These are pros, they should be able to handle it if their star lights it up for 8 shots, IMO
