    Interesting, You must have had a coach/team must have not cared about winning. Let's see, So you are telling me even though you are a Basketball player yourself, You support players that......Don't Play Defense, Don't Crash the boards, Avoid Contact as much as possible, Doesn't Hustle, and quits on teams? Sorry, but I only played organized basketball once in my life and I can already tell you that no coach unless he's doing illegal drugs would support that.

    I couldn't have said it better myself. If I could give rep out then I would definitely give it to this post. Everything you said I agree with wholeheartedly.

    Really then what was he doing in 08 plying on one knee and shoulder and pushing the jazz to 6 games with a horrid lineup?. he averaged 28-7-6 in that series. he averaged 35 pts 8 boards 7 assists in the last two gmes at a clip of 55%. he had 40 pts 10 boards 5 assists in the game 6 in utah on 17 of 26 shooting.......go read magics comments that mcgrady was'nt at fault in that series.


    Even last year with a shonky knee he tried to play but obviously that injury was to much. btw, is tmac a POINT FORWARD?... DWIGHT>YAO. haaahaha. weiordo with a million id's

    Im sorry but have you seen Tracy's number in the playoffs? They are great. Tell me he doesn't hustle or doesn't care about the team. Yeah T-mac has said some stupid things off the court past few seasons, but that doesnt take away what he has been to this team, do you think without t-mac we would have made the playoffs the first couple seasons? Injuries have taken a toll on him but it is unfair to say that he is not in anyways been important or a need for this team, because he has been

    how about you take a look at tmac's playoff stats and then edit your post? his playoff stats negate everything you just said.

    Ever heard of the term empty stats? Because that's what he posts. It's something Zach Randolph has posted since his rookie year, It's something T-Mac's cousin Vince Carter did in New Jersey and It's something T-Mac does now. Accept reality and move along.

    If Tmac can come in and just keep the ball moving and not slow the offense down, I think he'll be a great addition. His shot will have to be respected and he can put in on the floor. I think he'll buy into it. If not, the trade will come quickly.

    Yep as consistent as Allen Iverson's playoff stats last season.

    McGrady in playoffs = huge usage rate, very low TS% (.478 during his last 2 playoffs). Using lots of possessions, generally inefficient when he tried to score.

    Oh yeah, and he lost every playoff series he's ever been in. Not all his fault, but having the guy who uses most possessions and burns the most shot lock shooting better than .478 (or the .517) TS% would have helped the team with having a better chance at winning.

    maybe i'm just one of the few Rocket fans who think that every time we lose a game that it was because Tmac wasn't there and if we win, we would have won by more points cause of Tmac.

    And when everytime some Kobe fan tells me about championships and MVPs I tell them look at Tmac's stats!

    And when the Rockets win in the playoffs, I can say if we had Tmac we would have won it all.

    And when we lose, I don't feel sad, cause Tmac will be healthy and when he is healthy, he can carry a team like Dwayne Wade and LeBron James.
    It's true you know, cause some people have done it on the video game NBA 2K06 and 07 and 09!

    Put the 08, 05, 07 rockets against the blazers and they'll win easy.hence tmac would be out of the first round. circumstances havent been to kind to him.

    When you have bobby jax as you're starting PG or the years before that ryan bowen as you're starting lineup PF he is forced to be the man. look at the teams he's had and you'll see why he's usage is so high. it's miracle some of those orlando teams even made the playoffs.

    Go ask Dirk how bad tmac's defense was. honestly, you're just blinded by hate. i expect that from bizzlerockets because he has a long history of having multipale id's with all serving on purpose.he is a yao-only-fan who goes around the net bashing mcgrady because he was taking yao's glory.
