    She-Mac
    Me-Mac
    T-Back
    McLady
    McLazy
    McTrady

    and my personal favorite, Tracy McLovin.

    Dunno who first posted that, but if you can lay claim to it you have my respect.

    You should try an internet search of "Shroopy2" and "acumen". Not that I'm skeptical at all......

    Tracy has always been a bit of a softy, and has never fully played up to his potential. That is what is so frusturating about him. One week he is Black Jesus, the next he is Lisa Leslie.

    He has the talent of greats.......
    MJ
    Dream
    Charles
    Bird
    Magic

    But mentally he is just not there consistently like those I just mentioned......

    You mean like last year when Yao went down, he helped (with great play from Juwan and Deke) to a 5th seed with homecourt (better record than 4th seed) in the west? Yeah, I can't believe he's always quitting on us when things don't look good... :rolleyes:

    i think health has a big part to do with it. When the team was totally sucking and his knee was hurting i'm sure it was frustrating.

    That being said, their win streak is probably a factor also and the team, overall, is gaining confidence.

    But he did seem to have a little extra "fire" in him against NO. Maybe he just felt good after the rest of all-star weekend and I'm sure the trash talking early in the game gave him a little extra edge

    That may have been the case some years ago. Not any more. He's still a very good player, but he doesn't have the explosiveness/shooting touch/vision that those guys had. Not close.

    I know you're hoping that he proves us wrong this season, though. AMIRIGHT?

    Sure ... but I'm not betting on it. He just needs to play hard, play smart, and play consistent. If we're going to accomplish anything, we can no longer rely on him to carry us. Lots of players need to step up. If we win, we win as a team, and if we lose, we lose as a team.
