sick!I'm a big fan of Yao and T-mac.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Strike3 @ Jun 30 2007, 10:27 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Well yes I am a T-Mac fan and a Rocket fan</div>
I'm always having belief in mac. I mean, he didn't train himself last summer, so his shooting percentage slided, and neither can he penetrate like before.but I bet he'll get over it. he's such a hard worker, I believe in his summer and next yr, the Rox will make the Con Final. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Strike3 @ Jun 30 2007, 10:35 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Ok cool. how you think T-Mac will do next season?</div>
Good Evening~ (lol it's 9 o'clock in the morning here)I think I just simply translate Chinese Words into English, maybe some could change to other words. For example, Pierce "The Truth" and Pierce "The Gospel" means the same right? Hm I'm a Rocket Fan too. Yao Really works hard in his domain so he rewards our respect. And T-Mac... lol in a word, if he boost his shooting ratio, I'll love him more
