I want an efficient season from mac too. But I wouldn't hold my breath. Offtopic but kinda funny, Luther Head was the only person with a negative PER in the playoffs.
Does T-Mac draw the most most double teams while he makes a free throw? Can you explain why his free throw percentage is so poor ? 07-08 FT%: 68.4%. 06-07 FT%:70.7%. T-Mac lovers always can not face the fact that he is not a good shooter.
How about no excuses - look at what he has done for the Rockets. Tracy put them on his back and carried them every time that Yao went down. Talk to coaches and GMs - Tracy is a lot more than a scorer. He's the best distributor on the Rockets - he even managed to make Chuck Hayes look productive. Why did Landry look so amazing? Passes from Tracy and open court also provided courtesy of Tracy. Seriously, if TMac is so mediocre, why does he get double-teamed all of the time with "all of this talent around him"? It because of what he can do. Why don't you compare Yao's FG% against Dwight Howard's next? They play the same position - if Dwight has better numbers, he must be better, right? Tracy has his warts (FT%, anyone?), but he's no worse than top 4 at his position, and nobody ranked below him could have come in and carried our team to the playoffs like he did. Anyone blaming TMac for his playoff record just hasn't been paying attention.
I love it, we haven't played a game yet and he's already settin himself up for excuses. I bet the first game he goes for 40 his quote will be something like, "I just decided to not think about my knee and shoulder and impose my will on the game."
can we get the season going? hearing the same garbage about tracy waste a lot of space on this forum.
