    Damn, weren't people saying he was all chubby just a week ago? That's a heck of a weightloss :p

    I don't usually believe in conspiracy theories but if these pics aren't photoshopped Tmac should much earlier than expected. Look at the third pic, dude was driving hard to the blocking guy. Plus the other pics show him working with leg weights. I'm pretty sure guys who are still recovering from arthroscopic surgery aren't supposed to do strenuous leg exercises lol...

    he was IN A SUIT. and tracy does wear suits that are baggier than usual (not fitted). so it's understandable if people thought he was chubby. and if you look at those pics, he's not in "great" shape yet so he's still working.

    losing weight is EASY. hopefully the knee/leg gets right.

    and those have to be recent. he just started on court activities earlier this month, the beard, shoes, tim grover, chicago...

    Yeah those are from his recent rehab. I mean there's Tim Grover in there lol. I'll post more later. The reason why the pictures look so good is because his rehab is being followed so there is a professional photographer following him ;)

    As promised here are some more pics of Tracy's rehab. You can see that they are recent pics cause he's still a bit chubz lol. Looks like Grover is putting him to work though. I think I'll keep the pics to this thread instead of the other cause people started to attack each other rather than just discussing it. Why can't we all just get along :D Enjoy....

    he's got some weight to lose. for him to really resume his career, he should get down to under 210. needs to keep the load off his knees. you can see the body fat in his gut by the way.

    please dude i dont see a gut. it seems like everyone is basing his 'chubness' on his face. he clearly has gotten a chubbier face, but he looks very lean. you guys are overreacting as usual and cant admit it.

    Thanks for the video DD. :D This board could use more posters like you. I agree with you about Budinger and Taylor. Also, Llull won't be seen for a while, so no need to talk about him yet. If your theory about Mac is correct, I would be very excited. People just don't seem to realize that he can still contribute. Many are spoiled because of how good he used to be. They fail to realize he is still a solid player, because it is shadowed by his past talent. Thanks for taking the time to make the video. Gotta believe in our Rockets. :D

    I see some love handles if that counts for anything. Great to see him working hard to get back into shape, I have no doubt he can be a lethal point forward in the latter part of his career. Having a tall playmaker is much more of an asset than a 25 ppg scorer. It's all mental with Tracy - can he adapt to a system when he's been used to having it adapt to him?

    I agree the board needs more posters like DD. I don't agree with a lot of his takes, but he is gentlemanly and sticks to the subject. The video was great. It would be interesting to see pictures of all the posters. I had imagined DD as an old curmogeny (sic) black guy like Morgan Freeman in the bucket list. Couldn't believe he looked more like Rush Limbaugh. Might make an interesting thread. People could post a pic of what they think our most famous posters look like.
