    Look I am not T-mac Hating but last night was a bicg night for Rockets Fans. I did not see T-mac on the bench was he there or not?

    The highest paid player on the team needs to be visible even if he is injured, last year Yao was visible for the Playoffs and T-mac should not be above that standard.

    Tmac is a loser


    he was probably at home rooting for Portland
    hoping the Rockets dont get out of the 1st rd without him.

    TMac could have sang the National Anthem and it wouldn't have made a damn bit of difference. We've got to let go of this "Where's Poochie?" mentality when it comes to McGrady.

    As fans of the team, we should ALL wish the best for Tmac and his progress for next season

    As a fan, I'm upset that he was not on the bench, unless, of course, he was rehabbing during the game.

    We're stuck with his huge salary and there's nothing we can do except encourage him to come back strong and play to his potential.

    I think I am not upset about that,
    as long as that helps him on rehab

    Anyway Yao underwent surgery here in Houston, and he has few choice beyond sticking to his team

    And by now Tmac must have known that, this is a good team which is going to be none of his business if things not go right.

    I guess Tmac wasn't there for reasons.

    First, He must be thinking "what I is going to do after Rox passed the first round?, shame to myself or congratulate Yao?"

    Then, "I'd better make a excuse of not going"

    That is why.

    How many clutchfans would pass up on a free ticket to watch the rockets play?

    Memac does not care.

    I think it fits Tmac's characteristic last nite for not being there.

    Either way he is doom.

    If he's there and we lost, everyone will blame on him for the curse

    if he's not there, we would blame him for lack of support.

    To be honest Tmac would be sour-graped seeing everyone passed the first round without him.

    Tmac is still first round virgin.

    My coworkers said he was booed badly when they put him on the big screen and announced his presence at one of the home games in the Portland series.

    I don't expect to see him in the stands anymore and certainly no announcements or extended shots of him to the TC crowd on the big screen.

    The fans want him and his drama gone.

    A Yahoo article says McGrady was there.

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_y...LYF?slug=aw-rockets050109&prov=yhoo&type=lgns

    I'm not sure if the writer has a source or actually saw him there, since there seem to be conflicting reports. I think the writer just put that in there because it's expected of your $21 million dollar player to be there. However, I'd trust 610 since it's local.
