    That's true.

    But let's wait for the MRI results. Now they are saying it can be done earlier. We will see.

    The good thing is, he is pretty close to comming back.

    What defines history of making claims and blindsiding his teammates and the Rockets organization, one occurrence? :rolleyes:

    I just don't understand how one horrible season, while being significantly injured, defines him as a selfish player on the court...

    once again:

    1) He complained in public through the media, twice, of "not getting enough touches", while injured and playing poorly.. once, right after portraying someone that was trying to play his best within the offense, and just before the infamous Jamarian moon incident.. somehow people have forgotten about this..

    2) He announced his plans to go ahead with mid-season surgery, at a very crucial moment in the season for the team, once again, to the public through the media, without first consulting management..

    Never believe those stupid reports. I bet you that so called stupid email was not even written or sent by T-mac himself.

    This is what stupid reporters do for a living, I do not blame them, but I also do not believe them.

    Come on, people, show some intelligence!!!!!

    Much like the Favre situation, the rox are going to have to either trade him,activate him,release him or tell him to stay away. If he says he's ready to go and the rox are saying wait till nov 23rd for a mri, he can file grievence. Everyone knows u can have a mri anytime, so what's the holdup? Maybe its the insurance money like someone mentioned before. When its said and done,he will either play here or in another uniform, it really doesn't matter.

    The 6 month clause for insurance sounds plausible.

    You are kidding right?
    T-Mac may have a little KILLER INSTINCT in the regular season but . .. you metal is tested in the post season and. . . .HE AIN'T PASSED YET!

    I will rephrase for you . . or FIX IT AS THE KIDS SAY
    There was reason KOBE is KOBE, and T-MAC never becomes KOBE.

    The media is out to get T-Mac. They have no morals and don't care about credibility. They'll keep on twisting his words, make him look bad. all for making a name for themselves. Wojnarowski and Spears are T-Mac haters! :(
