    Dude came to the rockets out of shape that one season and he was known to have chronic injuries. You can't blame other players cause they didn't injure him.


    However if you remember , Tracy always said he was 'back' and was demanding lots of minutes

    Im not gonna fault him for wanting to come back quickly. I just dont see how you can blame any player for getting injured because that is simply something you have no control over.

    Tracy McGrady was the best active scorer in the first round before joining the Hawks at 28.5 PPG (0.5 better than LeBron James) and he needed to play 5 minutes for the Spurs to advance.

    It's hard to be a Rockets fan when you're trying to realize that

    Congrats T-Mac!

    Since T-Mac broke the curse does that mean Tinman melts? How's this work?

    Somehow I think the spurs would have not lost the lead in 5 minutes against the lakers scrubs.

    Lebron? Ok whatever makes you happy.

    I'm a rockets fan and I realize that the game was over when both teams decide to pit their scrubs in.

    He ****ed up his knee the year before. Tmac played like total ass that year and was hurting us on the court. I'm glad he sat out.

    tinman may not be irate, but he is clearly peeved that he can no longer call tmac a first round virgin. The idea that tmac has a decent chance of making the finals is clearly messing with him.

    Gary Payton won a ring. Rockets fans didn't like that dude.

    Why would I be irate ? I knew the spurs would beat the lakers. Who didn't ?

    Mcgrady is still good enough to be in the league so he deserves some credit to make it back to the nba.

    Classy move by the Spurs getting him in to end the game!

    Even if you don't like Tmac, you can't argue that he tried hard fr many years to get past this point. Obviously this isn't the same as if he carried a team past the 1st round, but still gotta be happy for him!

    Nonetheless, he made it the second round. It's almost like Pop didn't want to risk the curse. haha

    Ope, nevermind. I see he got to play 5 minutes! Hopefully he can contribute if called upon.
