    He's been driving to the rim, you should take your blind folds off.

    You hate the guy, ok, that's fine. you will get your wish so rejoice!

    Adelman and Morey are probably afraid Tradey's going to pull another one of these if they put him back on the court

    HECK YES !!!

    You don't let your employees run the ship, and they have to earn respect, all Tmac has earned these past couple of years is a ticket out of town.

    And all the T-groupies fail to see the damage he has done.......it just boggles the mind.....

    No - Pathetic would be placing yourself and your needs above the needs of the team.

    Pathetic would be missing layup after layup while complaining about playing time.

    Pathetic would be talking to the media before talking to your team about issues.

    Pathetic would be placing your next contract as a priority over your team's needs.

    Pathetic would be dissing an organization that has bent over backwards to accommodate you for too long - and then complaining about it when they decide the team is more important.

    Pathetic would be sitting on the bench and making 23 million dollars.

    Pathetic would be your boy T-mac.

    A trade is possible ... I was already wondering why the Bulls benched John Salmons and Brad Miller. They come of the bench now and didn't start the past games ... maybe a sign?

    Tmac really needs to STFU about playing time to the media if he really wants to stay a Rocket. DM and RA are showing zero tolerance and everyone knows Morey has either listened or inquired himself about trading Tracy. Daryl most likely has every option covered and explored with what to do with Tracy.

    you didn't exactly improve your situation. Brooks is a streaky shooter, but he is not that much more efficient. i can remember many nights when he was abysmal from the range and caused threads on GARM for him to stop taking shots. he is full of potential, but he's still young.

    TMac is a go-to guy. i'd keep him in the rotation, over Ariza. hell, i'd keep him in the rotation over Brooks and give Brooks less minutes. it's just that he's done too many shady things as a Rocket. if he wasn't so selfish, so cocky, things woudl've been different.

    i'd love for TMac to take a small contract next season. a MUCH SMALLER contract.

    this makes no sense to me. i don't get it. i guess we just wait and see.

    tracy's "dissatisfaction" was being a cheerleader. so, they go and make him a full-time cheerleader? he didn't say i don't want to play these 7 or 8 minutes that i'm aware of.

    this is a r****ded situation. it's time for him to get traded, because now the Rockets organization is creating a distraction, more so than McGrady himself.

    sit down.

    think about what you've done.

    demand a trade.

    make it easier on everyone.

    Ok - I took my blind folds off and saw T-mac drive to the rim twice and miss two layups.

    What now?

    Should I go back to our playoffs with T-mac bricking jumpers in the 4th quarter of close games instead of driving to the rim?

    I get it - you love the guy. When you are ready to take your blinders off let's chat. I'm sure we can find some common ground.

    man i seriously hope that tmac leaves this team now and averages 20ppg so i can laugh at DD and Carl in there faces. Tmac has worked his ass off since the surgery and all this team has cared about is getting the insurance money.

    Missing and making layups is largely due to having your legs under you and playing 8 min a game does not help that factor

    Yeah, well the rest of the team works hard every year.

    And 20ppg is not the goal...

    It is winning in the playoffs and a championship, way to show the world that you have no clue what being a Rocket fan really means.

    They need to do one of two things:

    Buy him out

    trade him for anything.

    This is unfair to tmac and the team.

    When landry is a FA he will be like damn morey low balled me and look what he is doing to tmac.
