    Lol, exactly, Just do some light reading on brain development... Unfortunately for some it seems like 30, haha or never.... There are a few cases where people have their **** together at 25 but it's like finding a unicorn lately. So... There's hope still for Harden :) hopefully the big money didn't slow that dev...

    How about all the McGrady fans meet up and yell "what if" really really loud and maybe God will listen and change history !

    It would unite all the McGrady fans from all over like Germany or Australia or china

    Tracy McGrady never led the rockets to a playoff series victory .

    This is an absolute truth.

    Another high school response. The majority of the fans on here are true Rockets fans. Why do you always try to group people like that. Bwhahaha

    who defines disappointing?

    it's dissappointing that the rockets followed up a western conference finals with not winning in the first round.

    what's the standard? if tmac is the standard,l then what about this season??
    They didn't even make the playoffs,
    Tmac only played 47 games

    2005-06 Houston Rockets Roster and Stats

    Record: 34-48, Finished 5th in NBA Southwest Division (Schedule and Results)
    Coach: Jeff Van Gundy (34-48)

    PTS/G: 90.1 (29th of 30) ▪ Opp PTS/G: 91.7 (4th of 30)
    SRS: -1.30 (19th of 30) ▪ Pace: 88.0 (25th of 30)
    Off Rtg: 101.6 (29th of 30) ▪ Def Rtg: 103.3 (6th of 30)

    I never reply to myself, those are lin fans and mcgrady fans.

    replying to yourself means you are quoting yourself.

    Interesting take.

    Tinman is right, Harden has already accomplished more than Tmac. In fact the reason this season was disappointing was because of that.

    With Tmac it was always expected that he'd not make it past the first round.

    This year the question for the rockets was "Championship?" with Tmac it's been "2nd round?" so yes, it is disappointing because we've already seen Harden take his team deep in the playoffs, so that's the expectation now. We've seen him play like a top 5 player in the NBA, so that's the expectation. So disappointment is perception.

    What is reality is that Harden has had far more playoff success than McGrady.

    Man that's a given and has been discussed numerous times already. I don't know why people keep beating a dead horse around here.

    And always Jay that's false because we didn't expect that in Tmac first couple seasons here.

    they need to accept failure and not make excuses for it.

    they are hypocrites when they call out the 'harden only fans', which i don't like either.

    you can't have both ways, you can't be the best player on the team and not get most of the blame, yet at the same time get all the glory when the team is successful.

    and that dork who keeps talking about the 22 game winning streak, tmac never played in all 22 games during the streak. the story about that was each night a new player stepped up.

    This is because Tmac was a superstar before he joined the Rockets and had a fanbase who was eagered to see someone as an alternative to Kobe Bryant.

    His fanbase is similar to Taylor Swift. It's never her fault, but she keeps moving on from 'horrible' boyfriends.

    You got that Tmac day dream look in your eye

    Lets just call a spade a spade. Neither are leaders, at least not to the level that Houston needs them to be.

    Low expectation for TMAC?

    Tmac even can't play 80 games a season. His body is made of glass.
