    Those were great times for me to ignore a lot of the threads and just focus on my business, rather than to descend into the depths Dante's Inferno of making really ugly statements about people who I could probably have a great time with at a Rockets game cheering, screaming, losing my voice and getting mildly slammed.

    We need to do more of that. Maybe as a hand out to our Chinese friends we could find a way to bring a few over next season for a coupla games and put em up in the guest bedroom? I long for the day we just cheer for all Rockets - Yao and Tmac and just enjoy it.

    Why are we still talking about trading him...holy crap...One, if we could get a good offer, we should consider it, two with him have surgery, isn't it moot, meaning what team would give high value on a guy that just had surgery and is injury prone...

    anyway, we have rafer and shane getting surgery by the end of this week as well...

    Well put and I agree. Tmac is a warrior, he gave his all to this team and this city this season. Amazing performances knowing what we know now about the injuries and surgery.

    Last year was a freak accident, but stress fracture is not a freak accident. It happened because his leg could not sustain any longer and just broke. That's actually very serious and quite often the players are not the same as before a stress fracture. Even Yao I think said in one of the interviews that he would not be as mobile as before or something to that effect.

    This is the first year that Yao's come down with an injury related to wear and tear.

    There's a lot of unanswered questions about next season. What's the chemistry going to be like? How's T-Mac going to play? What about the point guard situation? What's Steve Francis going to look like? Yao's injuries are definitely a huge question mark. I'll probably watch the Olympic games just to see how mobile Yao looks.

    QUESTION: What is the prognosis on recovery? What is the prognosis on ReOccurrance?

    Does it really matter? He should be better by the start of next season, like Yao and Alston and Batman, etc.

    The reoccurance factor probably won't happen again. They had to remove LOOSE PIECES...ugh...

    Probably cause Tracy was banged up in the Utah series.

    Yes it matters
    If it takes him 6 months to recover to 80% that is an issue
    If He will have this every 3 months. . that is an issue

    This is a complete fabrication. I've never accused McGrady of faking an injury, and have actually defended the guy from such claims. Go back and search the archives if you like.
