    Even from the video you can tell T-mac had a lot more presence and swagger those days...compared to now, his skills and talent have really deteriorated..

    Since when did the Rockets get a blue uniform
    with the words ORLANDO on it?


    I'll still take Kobe any day. Hey did that Tmac in Orlando ever make to the 2nd round of the playoffs?

    To HELL with Tmac in Orlando. That guy never did anything for the Rockets when he wore a Orlando uniform.

    Tmac really was an amazing player at that time and I honestly believe could very well still be. Of course it is all up to him. I wouldn't mind seeing him in a Rockets uniform next season as long as he can stay healthy and brings a more resourceful game next season.

    We got that Tracy McGrady for Francis and Mobley.

    It's amazing if this guy was so good, why on earth did they want to trade him?
    couldn't they just rebuild around him like the Lakers did for Kobe?

    Lets for a second pretend that Kobe can't guard the walking gina.....


    Does it matter? Any team with TGina in it isn't getting past the first round anyway.....Kobes about to lead his team to his 4th title!

    game. set. match.

    Do people REALLY sit and waste time looking up Youtube videos from days of yore to somehow prove that McGrady was better than Kobe?

    Kobe doesn't need to guard a healthy Mcgrady. We don't know if we will see that Mcgrady again.


    But I'm still hoping....

    lol I'm convinced that the people who actually start this threads don't like T-mac because you already know how the thread will turn out. ;)
