don't forget Tracy was strong enough not only to throw the entire Rockets team under the bus, he had the strength to throw the Lebron and the Cavs under the bus too! Yao freaking Ming, he was chosen by Rudy T himself!
what rock have you been sleeping under? http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/ian_thomsen/02/27/weekly.countdown/index.html "I haven't been the guy who's been fortunate enough to play with Shaq, to play with Tim Duncan. I always seem to have average teams,'' he said. "You take me back in my Orlando days with Shaq? Come on, there are no questions. You take a healthy me and switch me out with Paul Pierce [on the current Celtics]? There's no question. There's definitely no question.''
Of course I prefer T-Mac healthy, doctors just need to take care of his issues; knee rehab heart transplant balls transplant Either one of this trhee have similar importance, once all of them is solved, then T-Mac will be really healthy.
Lol, that's what portland fans have said which can reply your bashing on Yao This is what saw at Feigen's Blog, from Blazer fans.

He is the reason your team is doing so well after Mcgrady went out with his back spasms again. Yao showed why he is the best big man in the NBA. Our guys just couldn't handle him. Yao is just too strong, too talented, and too determined to be stopped. I hope Oden can one day be half the player Mr. Ming is today. I also want to give a shout out to Aaron Brooks, Ric Adelman, and Clyde Drexler. You guys are still our boys. Good luck with the rest of the playoffs.

The only reason you guys won is because you have Yao Ming and we had to commit THREE GUYS to defend him leaving your other scrubs wide open. You are not the better team you just have 1 superstar who is better than all of our Bigs. Soon Yao will be a free agent and leave your stupid team. Then you'll be stuck with Can't get out of the first round Mcgrady and be terrible for the next 8 years but not so bad that you have a good draft pick. You will remain 8th -10th place for YEARS while RIP CITY will win multiple NBA titles. Enjoy the win and Yao Ming because so they will both be gone. In fact we will get Yao MING ON OUR TEAM VERY SOON AND YOU WILL FEEL OUR WRATH. WE HAVE MICROSOFT MONEY TO GET YAO. Houston is a trash city. Now stay off our mbs.

I still don't get it. When did T-Mac call THIS team "average"? He didn't. His quote is referring to his career problems of being on average teams. Orlando, and Houston in the JVG era. The first year of Adelman with Yao out for the season. That's what is so frustrating about his health this year. For once was on an above average team, with everyone 100% healthy in the playoffs, but his knees betrayed him.
Tmac doesnt play for this team anymore...he has nothing to do with us...he gets paid by Les for nothing he is a waste of a chair on the bench he is a done with our franchise this poll makes no no sense whoever did this should be locked for the rest of their lives
I would as well A healthy motivated T-Mac is no different than a healthy athletic Yao Ming. Let's get real, if either of them were like that they wouldn't just be a dynasty. They both would be Top 10 players of ALL-TIME.
To add to the debate, Most people including myself would rather have a player that can play in the high and low-post and is efficient on both ends of the court. The person that also shoots over 50% in the field and the person that alters, rebounds and blocks shots over the guy who is a volume scorer that doesn't play defense by any means.
Should be in the O.P. before anyone votes, because I keep remembering it as being not as bad as it actually is. But there is no getting around that quote.
healthy yao by far. tmac has been healthy on other teams and the numbers he put up in the playoffs shows he was feeling ok. i question his motivation and determination and he plays no D. i dont care if he drops 40 on a team.. if we still lose, then its just an individual accomplishment. yao moves the ball, can change shots, and can punish teams in the paint. tmac lead rockets wouldnt have beat the blazers. oh yeah and he quit on the team.
healthy tmac 10 out of 10 times. He can assert his will on a game and I just don't trust Yao to do the same. (that is my opinion...i dont blame others for not agreeing with it...i see both sides of the argument)
AS far as I know, most chinses fans support Yao to leave Rockets, because a Chinaese journalist had pubilised an article these days, he pointed that the boss of Rockets-Alexander, doesn't respect Yao at all, he seldom speaks to Yao, and he thought if he give Yao 15 million more than ohter teams, Yao will of course choose to sign the contract, in our opioion,
