Steve Francis & Tracy McGrady @Lakers/Rockets tonight

WhIch one of these matchups were i suppose to enjoy. Kobe outplayed him everytime he played tmac. Tmac never brought it. He wasnt interested in that matchup comeptitvely.

Kobe said when him and tmac were on tour together back when they were 18,19 he used to abuse tmac everyday on the court in practice and i believe him. In his orlando days he brought it competitively to kobe but in houston kobe always outplayed tmac in their matchups and i dont even need to check th boxscores to say that confidently.

And miss me with those postseason per cuz most of that is orlando days. Tmac allowed jerry slaon to guard him with fukking derek fisher and this fool was shooting faded away jumpers with that big ass hieght mismatch.

Man, fukk tmac. Id rode for that nigguh but i never been more disgusted by a socall superstar. So many letdowns. And the one yrar we really had a shot when hefinally got the best roster eger built.around him he mailed it in cuz he had a final year coming up and he wanted to get his body right to get one last good contract. We coudve fukking won it all that year with him ,yao, artest, lowry,landry,scolabrooks if he was commited to winning it all instead of getting onr last big payday. I guarantee kobe wouldve chose the ring.

Watching Tmac perform in houston made me appreciate kobe.

Im positive if we replace tmac with kobe , kobe woudnt havent allowed us to blow two 2-0 seriesw lead to teams thst werent superior to us.

Even jeff van gundy throw shots at tmac

U sir are correct. I knew Kobe got the best of T-mac but I didn't realize the dominance. Earlier in their career it was fairly close but toward middle to the end it was all Kobe. In 21 matchups (seems like it should be more then that but I guess injuries played a part in that) Mcgrady only outscored Kobe twice.

I can't speak for his orlando day but in houston when he was healthy kobe typically outplayed tmac when the two met. It dont mean kobe team won but kobe typically outplayed him.

Tmac just was underwhelming and the league knew it. Remember the one all star game played in houston in 2006 and thr whole west squad basically. Atered and deferred to tmac that game kobe even said so before the game this one for tmac. Tmac disappeared in the 4th and the west lost. Thats the epitome of tmac. Never coul win the game when it mattered or was in his hand.
