Fact or Fiction: T-Mac is NOT a top-3 Small Forward

[Optimus Prime]

Fact.

1. LeBron
2. 'Melo
3. Pierce

4. T-Mac

All this speculation about "If T-Mac is healthy..." is just that...T-Mac is rarely healthy, so you have to consider that he's probably going to be injured some of the season when making an argument.

Maybe next year when he has some stars playing with him you can say something but until then hes just a person who gets alot of shots and has a crappy team so he gets rebounds cause of that.

Completely true. I'd also take Luol Deng and Josh Howard over Pierce.

I can't believe people are ranking Melo above Pierce. Better defense, better rebounding, better passing, comparable scoring ability(With better range on his shot).

You are on drugs.

[Rockets(T-mac)]

To me its:

1)Lebron
2)T-mac
3)Melo/Pierce


Ofcourse this is when T-mac is healthy.

The best passer of all of them IMO. Around the the same level of scoring as Lebron and Pierce. All of them are pretty close in rebounding. T-mac has probably one of the better defenses of the 4.

Fit T-mac in if you wish :

43 .34 75 6.7 1.7 3.31 2.05 6.4 26.7
(If you look at stats I would put T-mac at #2)

BASED on Career stats (sorry my columns are misaligned)

Yup, I wanna see Pierce and Melo D up Dirk in the playoffs.

His best season was without a doubt 2002-2003. 32 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 5.5 apg, 2 spg, 1 bpg, 46 FG%, 39 3P%, 79 FT%

wrong. his best season was 2005, playing more games than '03 and leading his team to a 51-31 record.

[Noob Saibot]

T-Mac's offense is more effective as a shooting guard. He takes alot of shots in and out of the three point line. he used to be very effective in the post back in Orlando, now he doesn't drive as much and just makes passes to Yao Ming or a teammate standing wide open for a 3 pointer. So i gotta say FACT.
