Look I'm a massive T-Mac fan and it hurts me to say this but this was T-Mac biggest problem. He could shut down Dirk and he did on occasions but nowhere near enough. Size wise he should have been the perfect defender he just wimped out on it far too often. Could score up there with the best of them but his non efforts on defense will leave a taint on his career. Still lovee u though T-Mac

I enjoyed T-Mac when he was wiht the squad...He just acted like a wuss in the end...Who cares tho...specialy since his trade got us kevin martin/ which parlayed us james Harden hence D-12 in a Rockets Uni...
You just made me throw up a little in my mouth. One question. Did you see the 22 game winning streak? It just doesn't seem like it according to your post.
Harden couldn't stop Tmac either, at least TMac played defense, Harden on the other hand is by far the worst defensive player in the NBA. TMac would easily score 30+ on him every game. LOL
That is not true, a healthy TMac always netted 50 wins a year. And how many games did Tracy shoot the ball over 35 times. lol dude was a willing passer, come on now.
I wonder what happened between Tinman and T-mac.. Did McGrady deny him an autograph? Lose him a bet? Sleep with his wife? Who knows.
The tmac fans kept dissing the rockets coaches , teammates and rockets fans. They put out false information saying tmac led the rockets in a 22 game winning streak and had no good teammates. They keep making woulda coulda shoulda threads. They base their whole fandom on a twisted jealousy of Kobe Bryant. This guy never accomplished anything close to Kobe . They stupidly say he's the second best player in rockets history, while we have a guy who two Mvps . Tmac got booed several times coming back as a former player. Only recently when he dresses like the beloved Erkel do the fans cheer him. When artest and Yao won a playoff series, they refused to see the team played better without him. They had better chemistry and less distractions . He clashed with Rick adelman about playing time claiming he was 100%. His lie was exposed by the four or so teams he played with later. He ended his career riding the pine with the spurs and his fans somehow think he deserves a title.
I am no T-Mac hater, but is such a shame that he gets credit for the 22 game win streak. He played great and was our star, sure; but his play was in line with his typical Uncharacteristically efficient production from Rafer Alston and the fantastic contributions from Luis Scola and Carl Landry were much more important to the streak. But yeah, Tracy was good at basketball for a while.
