    Tracy needs Mayo for that knee sandwich, Sam. Maybe they could find him some mustard!

    It'll be funny if he doesn't get surgery, he'd make himself look bad, hes gonna try to cover this up if its all lies. To me he is thinking about his next contract at this point....

    Thats what I think is going to happen. He'll be back. How can so many doctors be wrong. It may come down to the orginization in just flat out shutting him down, but whatever Les wants Les gets and I don't see him doing that when he's forking over $250,000+gs every game. I personally feel that Tracy is complete waste of talent and he needs a sports psychologist more than he needs a knee operation. This whole thing is total joke.

    At least, Tmac is trying to slove his knee problem.

    Some fans here only want avoid the problem. They think getting rid of Tmac will solve everything. That is a quitter's behavior. Tmac still has some value. The rockets and Adelman should sit down and talk with Tmac and try to let Tmac fit in the new system so that Tmac's remained value still can be used.

    In the case of Tmac, hope is a denial of reality.

    At some point, you have to just make a decision. Based on all available information, it's fairly clear that (i) he isn't healthy, (ii) isn't willing to get healthy by putting in the work -- the hard way, (iii) is bad for the team when he is not healthy, and (iv) there's no indication that he is willing, much less able, to accept a lesser role.

    Maybe, maybe if he works his ass off this offseason, shows up next year healthy and with a good attitude, maybe just maybe we work him back in.

    This year -- no.

    Hope is the reality. Giving up is denial of reality.

    For all the fans who think Tmac is a quitter, if you quit on Tmac, you are a quitter too.

    you just felt it was cute to say that, didn't you?

    if a player becomes a big problem of the team and shows no willingness to change, of course fans quit on him. it's quite a different "quit" when someone quit on his team and his own competitiveness as a pro.

    (fyi, i quit on sf3 in his 3rd year.)

    That is not true. I saw Tmac played defense and did blocks in the last couple of games. Actually, he also did more 'catch and shoot'.
