Official Tracy McGrady in Atlanta Hawks Uniform Thread

Nice job against the mighty Raptors. I'm curious, where are the highlights of the 5 games before this one?

 

Thanks for the video. It's good to see Tracy still able to get his game going at 32 and broken down body after 16 years in the league.

It's kina sad Toronto fans still boo him, but he seems to be ok with it and enjoyed it while always score lots of point in Air Canada Center.

The guy at this age with so much money made is still playing basketball with all the injuries deserve some respect at least.

 

Well this is all of his doing, which lots of people here don't understand. You rub the fans the wrong way and they'll remember it.

Every NBA player has injuries, people don't put an exception just for him.

He is playing well and he's showing a desire to play basketball.

 

Do we really need to dedicate a 50+ page thread to a bench player whose best years are long gone? I'm talking to you you TOFs.

 

That's right tinman. You're spot on. Is he playing well? I don't know, he is not doing much but he is healthly can play and can score at time and of course create shots.

Remember, he is a MINIMUM guy. For what he is earning he is doing even more than he is supposed to. Of course he lied to ALL OF US. He has been doing that for 3 years as he is just a role player capable of playing really, really good basketball.

He is just a lazy as$ and he doesn't care anymore in a normal, regular game. But they are winning, he isn't playing or doing much but he is helping. They are 16-6 without Al or Crawford for a reason and he has his fingerprints on it.

 

unless u want 50+ threads created i suggest u cant stop your whining

 

You know the funny thing is that playing limited bench minutes is what Rick Adelman wanted to give him, but that there is a discussion that we shouldn't get into.

Happy for Rick and the TWolves. He was a great coach and +1 for him standing up to any of his players. A real coach rules his team. Having a good relationship with coach and players is key to a team's success.

 

goodness, t-mac still has hops!

 

How fast would tinman catch up to DD's post count if we started like 100 T-Mac threads? Dude could light it up to 100k in no time. I bet he has most of his replies and posts pre-written and just has to paste them in t-mac threads.

 

I will always like T-Mac i don't care what anybody says. my friends call him a scrub but i told them your a fan of a rapist and choke artist

 

......Noooo! you just said his name....no hes for sure coming in

 

I seriously doubt Clutch would let 100 Tracy McGrady threads appear on the dish. That would mean that the dish would be the worst forum in the history of the internet.

 

who's the choke artist?

I'm glad you are at least associating yourself with intelligent friends.

:grin:

 

Let McGrady just do what he is doing now. I'm waiting for the playoffs. ATL/T-Mac will surprise people.

The most popular (view wise) NBA Dish threads all involve one person (How many years after the happy departure?)

 

Lebron James is the choke artist

 

Speaking of T-mac Indiana coach recently said that T-mac didn't play defense as a youngster.

Is he talking about Toronto McGrady or Orlando McGrady?

Toronto McGrady played on the floor b/c of his defense.

Orlando McGrady didn't play much defense b/c he carried the load offensively.

Paul George right now is playing similar to the role of the Toronto McGrady (with less offensive responsibilities I might add) so he can still focus on offense.

 

Not sure but the quote is ignorant anyway especially the he was not capable part.

 

I think he was trying to build up George, but still ignorant when he said McGrady was incapable. The guy shut down Allan Houston in the playoffs when he was a Raptor. George isn't going to be anywhere near McGrady b/c at that age, McGrady was able to handle the ball, pass, and create shots for himself. He wasn't ready physically for the most part.

I think George will be a poor man's prime McGrady at his peak. I thought he was going to take some of the touches from Granger, but his inability to create shots for himself on a consistent basis has hindered that.
