    Kobe CANNOT guard a healthy McGrady.....even today. McGrady is too long and too skilled for anybody to guard..........IF HE IS HEALTHY.

    And.........the very best McGrady cannot guard KOBE. He is too skilled. If you noticed in that video, the Lakers were collapsing on McGrady the 2nd half of the game, then rotating, then collapsing back in twos and threes on him when he caught the ball. There was no one on the floor cutting to the rim and finishing when they did that to McGrady.

    I do not know if McGrady can regain his health to perform at that level. However, he is a very highly skilled basketball player that at 85% is better than all but a handful of players in this league. It is just unfortunate that the last couple of years, he has played at about 50% health wise.

    Kobe can't not guard a healthy Tracy or Ron, too big for him. But there is always a Battier for him to rest on the defensive end.

    Kobe can't guard TMac. 5 years ago.

    Shaq can't guard Hakeem. 15 years ago.

    So Shaq can't guard Hakeem Now?

    Wow,


    Part of this board is really delusional.

    Tmac is dead, long live Tmac.

    We have a broken Tracy McGrady.

    Trade him, for whatever you can get. Or sit him and use the cap space.
    We don't need him. He has no heart. And thats what this team and these guys are about.

    Kobe cant stop Tracy? Jesus Christ.

    either too many lil kids in this forum or everyone is smoking something real real good. Pass them good stuffs around man! I want to get high too.

    1)the tmac u see in them vids are long gone. Even if he come back healthy next season he will never be that same tmac ever again.
    2)I recalled numerous times Tmac either got injured, toes jam, family died or some weird excuses everytime Rockets played Lakers. Nuff said!!!

    It figures that someone would post Orlando Highlights about a player cause apparently they feel that his Houston Rockets highlights were not good enough.

    But I guess that's ok cause I'm sure in the Spurs Forum, when they talk about Robert Horry's clutch shooting,

    they have the video of Horry as a Rocket hitting three pointers in Sean Elliots face.

    He don't have to guard him, all he has to do is stand at the three point line and let TMac pull up and miss.

    I was rooting for the Houston Rockets in 2004.

    What was Orlando's record again in 2004?

    tmac is on the rockets and winning is a team effort so the blame cannot fall just on tmac.

    Oh my bad, I thought this was a Tmac in Houston thread cause I guess Tmac in Houston isn't worth showing then to some people.

    This guy is sadly gone forever, but he was very good for a while here.

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Iiakv-Ska0c&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Iiakv-Ska0c&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    Now it is time to thank him and trade him for younger, healthier players.
