The team is 31-20 with missing 1...2....or even 3 of their star players each game throughout the season ......but when they are all together they are destroying teams , this team are the best looking team on paper in the NBA

They have flown under the radar during the season so far, but i expect a big push from  this team late in the season, and like their chances of going all the way

I'm getting +2100 atm , and to me that is some great value there..... To the best looking roster in the NBA







 12 Alston, Rafer





 96 Artest, Ron





 17 Barry, Brent





 31 Battier, Shane





 0 Brooks, Aaron





 15 Dorsey, Joey





 44 Hayes, Chuck





 2 Head, Luther





 14 Landry, Carl





 1 McGrady, Tracy





 11 Ming, Yao





 55 Mutombo, Dikembe





 4 Scola, Luis





 13 Wafer, Von

Are you not just a bit concerned that Tracy McGrady hasn't made it out of the first round in like a million years?
 
Other than that, great value and hedging opportunities at those odds.

T-Mac has not tasted 2nd round in his career (if my calculations are correct), and you want him to go all the way in and win NBA championship all of the sudden?

I only responed to this thread to say this: Shut up. Crazy talk. Dumb ass. Silly guy. Crackhead. No brains. Place a future bet. Books love easy money.

With TMac? That person is never going to lead ANY team out of any playoff series. Remember 2004 Eastern Conf Finals, where his Orlando Magic was up 3-1, only to lose 3 straight games and the series to the Pistons, the eventual NBA Champs?

nbafan88: I've heard of Rockets' locker room in turmoil, but between whom? Is it Artest vs TMac?

Getting Inside

For the third time this season, Ron Artest specifically pointed at Tracy McGrady, calling for McGrady to do more.

But this time, though Artest walked the comment back into a compliment, McGrady seemed tired of the critiques.

In Toronto, Artest said McGrady needs to be “more of a dog.” In Boston, he said McGrady tends to cruise and rely on his talent.

This week, he said the Rockets’ pursuit of a more consistent defense needs to start with McGrady.
