    How does it not? Tmac is a straight 1st round virgin he probably wont even make it pass the 1st round in China LOL!! Also Rockets made it passed the 1st round with he wasnt there.

    Tracy McGrady- The most overrated player in Rockets history

    Hakeem Olajuwon had 4 straight first round exits (more than T-Mac in his Rockets tenure) and he missed the playoffs the year after his fourth straight.

    Tinmac just called Hakeem a horrible leaders

    If Hakeem had a horrible team and lost to Dallas averaging 38 points per game, it wasn't his fault, but when T-Mac had a bad team in 05 or in 08, it was certainly his fault

    That 30 PER prime was one season. He only had 2 other seasons with a PER of 25.

    Blame Yao and is 8 turnovers a game against Utah.

    Blame the refs for fixing the Dallas series and a weak supporting cast around Yao and Mcgrady.

    Blame Yao for getting injured when Mcgrady finished top 5 in MVP voting. THIRTY points at halftime in game 6 against Utah but that wasn't enough.

    Or

    We can simply make it easy and blame only Tracy Mcgrady.

    Btw, what year are we in?

    Cant Blame Yao because he made it out the first round without Tracy. Yao is not the virgin here its Tracy, leave Yao out of this conversation.

    Oh RTM you want to play Dream vs Tmac on stats? really?,
    you forgot that Akeem Olajuwon took the Rockets to the NBA FINALS in his second year as a Rocket.

    What did Tmac do in his second year as a Rocket?

    Yao did not average 8 TO a game in the Utah series. When you makeup stats it makes you look stupid.

    Your a fake rockets fan if you try to put down Hakeem to make tracy look better.
    Hakeem is a legend and a top 10 player of all time. Tracy is a scrub bench player on a sad team in china.

    Sarcasm meter. Check it.

    Also, please kindly remind us all how many he had in game 7 against Utah. Don't worry. We'll wait.

    Edit: Is 5 turnovers a game better?

    Tracy had about 4 Prime years then it was all over. I would take someone like James anyday of the week. Plus he was so Clutch in the Conference finals vs the Spurs, Tracy sadly has no great moments like that.

    Getting back to topic of the subject, I do believe he has the POTENTIAL, but only time will tell if he ever surpasses it. If you asked is he better than TMAC in his prime, I'd say no.

    I'm sure some people have, but I'm pretty sure nobody has seen McGrady play in the 2nd round, conference finals or nba finals.

    He should be held equally accountable for the lack of success this organization has had over the past decade.
