I understand the hate for him around here to a point. However, I don't think the comment was anything to write home about. It was a legit point. Over 12 games against PHO w/ the Rockets, McGrady averaged 24 ppg and had games of 38, 34, 39, and 30 against them. I agree with his assessment. He's gone, people. Let it go.
The only way he's drunk is if he sneaked into his dad's liquor cabinet. The kid's gotta be like 13 years old.
Here's a bizarro world thought: Think back to when we traded for him. Who would have thought Juwan Howard would be the last player remaining in the league? Steve Francis Cuttino Mobley Kelvin Cato Reece Gaines Tyronn Lue All are out of the league. Only McGrady and Howard remain...
sad and pathetic ending to wat SHOULDA been a great career all time self absorbed ego, with no heart wit all the ability in the world thats the microcosm of his career in short
But you gotta remember about that one. What a game! I remember watching it live. And we secured home court with this win. <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QvtoTN6_0xE&hl=pl_PL&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QvtoTN6_0xE&hl=pl_PL&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
Not completely true. We had one game in Phoenix where Mac and Yao completely destroyed the Suns in the 4th, and I believe in one of the Mac-Yao years, we beat them 3-1 in the season series. C'mon, people, do your research!!!
ur delusional u have absolutely no clue youve have no credibility imo and probably most ppl feel the same way unbelievable dum assumptions ur making
lol dam man if u can point out a time in particular when we had a shining moment then odds are we were habitually abused by them lol
Did I not point out beating them in the season series for one of those years as well? C'mon, people, READ!!!
We already knew he had no heart, but now I'm starting to wonder if they removed his brain during that microfracture surgery.
The last JVG seasons vs D'Antoni we only scored 100 points in one of the last 7 games vs the Suns. http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/HOU/2007_games.html Wed, Nov 29, 2006 @ Phoenix Suns L 91 102 Wed, Jan 17, 2007 Phoenix Suns L 91 100 Mon, Mar 12, 2007 @ Phoenix Suns L 82 103 Mon, Apr 16, 2007 Phoenix Suns W 120 117 http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/HOU/2006_games.html Wed, Nov 23, 2005 Phoenix Suns L 88 100 Thu, Feb 16, 2006 @ Phoenix Suns L 75 109 Mon, Feb 27, 2006 Phoenix Suns L 94 111
2003: 3-1, Rockets 2004: 3-1, Suns 2005: 2-2 2006: 3-0, Suns 2007: 3-1, Suns 2008: 2-2 2009: 2-1, Rockets I think "habitually abused" needs to be more than a 4-game edge, including 2006 and 2007 when Yao played no more than 55 games. I think the Sonics can stake claim to having "habitually abused" the Rockets in the early 90s. OK, OK, the "D'Antoni" Suns- still, McGrady was not the problem in those games, nor against the Spurs.
tmac always put up great numbers, especially in the playoffs. he was never a cancer or considered a cancer in the lockerroom but if you looked at all the hate on this board, youd think he choked a coach or something. injuries happen; the ones that linger makes it hard to do anything. every player has his own problems. ron artest ran into the stands and punched a fan but id bet more of these 'sheep' posters are willing to back up artest than tmac just because artest is crazy (a type of crazy which happens to appeal to the cameras).
I was talking about the D'Anotoni Suns. Remember Tmac was happiest with JVG. He wasn't happy with Rick the Ruler.
