    Probably going to get one star for this thread but I have my flame suit on. He has some nice things to say about the Rockets.

    **********************************************************

    Hey everyone,

    I’m a little overdue on giving you guys an update, so here it goes. First off, I’m feeling great! The rehab is going well and we’re getting good results on everything, but man is it tough. Thankfully I’ve got great doctors and rehab specialists that are helping to make sure I’m doing everything properly and that progress is being made. I can walk around a little bit right now and my leg brace finally will come off this week, which will be nice. I’m just getting to the phase where I can start conditioning other body parts, which I know is important to give my knee support. I’m doing all this in Chicago, so that I can be right here with my doctors and so that I can give this 100% of my attention. I got an apartment here and my family will be joining me here for the summer. Speaking of my family, I recently had my second son, Layden. That makes 4 children in the McGrady clan, and I can’t wait for them to get here so I can spend more time with them. My summer is going to be very low key so that I can focus on rehab. Getting back on the court next year is really the only thing I’m thinking about.

    You guys ready for these playoffs to start? Man, I can’t wait. It’s tough to watch your team out there playing when you want to be a part of it so badly, but I’ve turned into the team’s number 1 cheerleader. I get so into the games that my hands get all sweaty just watching because I get nervous. When you are out there and you control your own fate it’s one thing, but watching from home brings a whole new kind of nervous energy. I watch every game and couldn’t be more proud of these guys. Everyone has brought their game to a new level, and they are playing great team basketball. The west is looking tough as usual, but I think we match up well against most of the playoff contenders. I’m going to try to join the team for as many games as possible in the playoffs. I’m hoping to be at all of them, but I’m going to listen to my doctors and see what they suggest in terms of travel and activity.

    Anyways, that’s about all that’s going on with me. Just focusing on my rehab and getting excited to watch my boys make a run at the title. Who do you guys think is going all the way this year? My Rockets have enough in the tank for a deep run? Also, who you think is taking home the MVP trophy this year?

    As always, thanks for all the love and support you guys keep sending my way.

    Peace

    Mac

    Reading this makes me think about what could have been with a healthy and cooperative Tracy. Oh well.

    Nice read, good to hear his rehabbing is going good.

    I hope he can make it back on the court next season and contribute. He's still a Rocket so I'll still root for him.

    Can someone please tell me what type of Micro-fracture surgery he had if they know?? I'm asking because for him to have the knee brace off already is kind of odd. I know there are different types that can take you out like Jamal Mashburn but I find it strange that he is healing kind of quickly.

    IDK if he actually writes these but he needs to be careful. Him being in Chicago isn't save. Lately a lot of athletes have been targeted while being there.

    We don't need T-crap thread in this Forum. Neither will he be a Rockets ever again in his life. He does not deserve to be wearing Rockets uniform.
