    what's the question here?

    You know I don't care if Tracy wins with the Spurs, because it doesn't change what he did for the Rockets.

    if these guys really want a thread, i can easily make one that we can talk about. And it will definitely be more creative, educational, historical correct.

    and we'll know if these dudes really care about the Rockets more than McGrady's success.

    I've thought of one now, but I'll hold off on creating it.

    Keep dreaming of your active dream player Duncan.
    Truth you have to deal with players like McGrady for a while that is many years.

    again, you go off topic . no has made a mention of duncan on the rockets.

    and you know duncan is not the best player on the spurs anymore.

    mcgrady really wasn't here for that long.

    was he here longer than yao? no. certainly not longer than olajuwon.

    people exaggerate the mcgrady era of the rockets. he didn't play in that many games. obviously not that many playoff games .

    keep making up **** tinman. i didn't come here to rescue anyone, i came to check on any updates from a player i used to enjoy watching. i saw that you, as usual, were ranting about what he didn't accomplish, and i simply wanted to point out what a b!tch you are. i NEVER put tmac over the team, the coach, the organization. that doesn't change the fact that for the most part, his teammates SUCKED outside of yao ming. i liked some of them (especially the year with bobby sura and jon barry among others), but they were old and SUCKED.

    had we of had morey filling roster spots with yao and tmac, i think we would have gone further. won a championship? who's to say, there were a lot of good teams during that time.

    you on the other hand, you dream about 95, you tell everyone what year you joined the site, as if ANYONE gives a crap, and you talk **** to anyone who enjoyed watching a player YOU don't like.

    some of us are more than rockets fans, we are basketball fans. the rockets will always be my team, i may be moving to dallas for work next year, i will NEVER cheer for the mavs, but i may go to a couple of games to see some good players, because i LOVE BASKETBALL.

    get. over. yourself.

    says the poster who bet me $50 that mcgrady would average 15 ppg, lost and refused to pay.

    honor the bet you made, give clutch the $50 you owe him then you wont look like such a fool when you go around calling others a "b!tch".

    If Tmac were a real man, he would feel guilty and shameful sitting there during the finals for the next couple weeks.

    He still hasn't gotten past the first round.

    Shane: Wow! LeBron actually makes your teammates better! I'm a champion now. Not like when I was playing with that "It's on me" dude with all those delusional fans of his saying that I SUCKED

    To you guys taking shots at Tracy, do you think playing during games is the ONLY way to contribute to the team? Didn't Tracy work with Leonard on his game? Or what about practices before games? Maybe he's a mentor to the young guys? Do the assistant coaches call the plays during games? No. Then why do they get a ring too if the team wins? We really don't know how Tracy is used by the Spurs, but there are many things going on outside of what we see on the court. Why do you think the assistant coaches and trainers get a ring too if the team wins?

    You're right.

    Maybe McGrady is teaching his teammates how to do an interview with Stephen A Smith without Pops knowing.

    McGrady's year in 02-03 was MVP-caliber. You cannot deny that.

    Congrats on your move to Dallas for you new job.

    I found one of your old post:

    I like how you think McGrady turned crap into wine.
    You spelled it wrong, McGrady really knows about whine.

    I can't deny that they gave the MVP to the right person

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2003.html
    League Champion: San Antonio Spurs

    Most Valuable Player: Tim Duncan (23.3/12.9/3.9)

    So you agree with them giving Derrick Rose the MVP over LeBron James?

    Karl Malone the MVP over Michael Jordan?

    its a regular season award on who had the best regular season.

    Duncan over McGrady is beyond easy to choose.

    So then why bother listing who the champions were that year?

    32.1/6.5/5.5
    is the definition of carrying a team.

    I won't say that Duncan didn't deserve it, but to say McGrady has never been 'the best player' in the league at any time is hogwash.

    LeBron James was clearly better then Rose, but Rose still won the award.

    It's not a who's better award, it's a who's led his team to the best regular season.

    I would differ, McGrady was NEVER the best player in the league. Especially when there's a Shaq, Duncan, and Kobe in the same league. he doesn't even tie their shoes.

    He wasn't the best leader, defensive player.

    Duncan doesn't have to jack up lots of points like McGrady. He just leads and plays solid on both ends and leads his team to the best or one of the best records.
