    I didn't boo him. He isn't worth my effort to boo his broke back ass, just like the Rockets weren't worth his effort during the Toronto game.

    i think you missed the point.

    Tmac left the Magic, he was asked to be traded and he left the Rockets, he was asked to be traded.

    Jeez, I guess he wasn't Johnny Gill about when he leaves teams.

    Besides, why would he care? He didn't care about the Rockets when he ran off and announced season-ending surgery.

    I just dont think we as a fanbase should stoop to that level and make our city look bad. We want as many players to think of our city and organization as highly as possible to give the free agents and players reasons to come here. Boing guys long after they have been gone from our team for being injured is not something that will encourage others to consider us in the future.

    LOL, Yes future free agents will not want to sign with the Rockets because they might get boo'ed if they play for a different team later in their careers. I mean free agents stopped going to Orlando after T-Mac left right?

    apologize for what? HE COULD STILL PLAY. RICK ADLEMAN DIDNT LET HIM PLAY. and we traded him away, he didn't walk off.
    apologize for the 13 pts in 35 seconds that still gives ppl chills today?

    Here is something to make the T-Mac fans happy and cry about how Houston mistreats him.

    Its just the way he have handled ourselves over Tmac harrassing the guy long after he is gone. Also this is not Orlando with Dwight Howard here and a team on the rise. Its a team with Yao Ming and his potentially career ending any moment type of injuries. We dont have beaches outside of the arena.

    The boos were certainly uncalled for. He had some good years outside of 06 when he was injured most of the year(though great when he did play) and last year of course. He said a few dickish things last season but nothing worth getting booed over. He was just frustrated over not being able to play. Good luck in the future Tracy.

    This is whatever, both sides need to move on. Time for the Rockets to get back into playoff contention. Time for Tmac to salvage whatever he can of his former league leader-in-scoring self.

    T-mac is putting up a front IMO. I think it bothers him more than he is leading on. His body language just gives it away to me...

    Oh well and I agree that this was a great time to finally let go of T-mac. We got our boo's in and let him know how we feel.

    The bad outweighed the good with T-mac, so see ya and thanks for 04-05 :) :p

    TOF's never really address this point, he ran off and announced season-ending surgery without discussing with the Rocket's doctors.

    The 13 in 33/35 might have given people chills but that decision gave people frostbites.
