Gotta admit, I wasn't around for most of the Yao-McGrady era, so I've never really understood how things played out between him and the team. So I finally did some research just now. I think I found a trustworthy source: http://www.clutchfans.net/news/1545/the_day_t-mac_lost_houston/ Complete with this video: I understand now.
McGrady wasnt that good in that series either. Shot below 40% for the series. Got crapped on by Harpring and the midget Derek Fisher lol.
No respectable Rockets fan, that cares for the team, would like this bum after everything that he has done over the years. Loser mentality. Mental midget. Loser player that pretty much guaranteed playoff failures Threw his own teammates under the bus Talked about how he would win with other players instead of his teammates Picked the opposition team to win while his team were playing that other team Announces surgery behind the team to sabotage trade Cant stop talking about himself..like ever Garbage personalty Trashes Harden any time he is on TV or tries his best to belittle him and his accomplishments Jealous and bitter Massively over inflated ego, especially for someone that is an all time loser in the post season. There are a few players I wish NEVER played for the Rockets and this guy is always going to be in that list.
I like to rile up the people who irrationally hate Mac, but why do the TMac apologists always have to have threads like.... this? Stuff like this just helps the anti-Mac circle jerk.
I can live with people hating TMac but not this kind of fake narrative trash. Listening to Clutchfans talk about Mac is the same as listening to Chris Broussard talk about James Harden. I feel better that there's some balance in this discussion. Mac has many issues, but he's not a witch we should burn at the take. Screw you self-hating fans.
You see, some are just haterz, they dun go by the name of Tmac, Harden, Stevie, MCW, Melo haterz. Simple as that. They dun have another place to vent their hate on.
It's called he was half an 'invalid/handicapped veteran'. He was done as a player..... well as a star mostly. You dudes probably wanted him to break his legs and his back and spend the end of his career in a hospital. This Toronto game narrative is overblown when you consider how screwed up his body was at that time.
Every thing on my list happened and is true, No amount of excuses, like yours, is going to change it. Sorry that your Tmac apologist career didn't work out just like his career didnt. Melo, Tmac.... ouch. Next time pick better players/person to apologize for lol.
Guess how many playoff games Tmac played as a Rocket? 20 you realize that Harden has played 62 playoff games already for the Rockets? 20 playoff games that's pathetic for a superstar
Yao got past the first round of the playoffs with Ron Artest and Yao had a broke foot as well Broke foot apparently is better than broke Tmac
There you go. There is your answer to why Artest took this team to the second round while McGrady never could. Tru Leadership.
