Could elaborate a bit on the facts Wojnarowski didn't get right in the article?

Thanks.

(I heard someone list the things inaccurate this morning, but I cannot really recall all of them. I know that McGrady did not return to the locker room in uniform, surprising Adelman. He wore his workout gear as usual and later changed. Adelman was not startled to see McGrady in uniform; he was amused when he was told later McGrady got dressed as if he could play. McGrady did not ask the equipment manager to bring out the uniform. He got it himself. The 41-game date is not significant. McGrady's salary has been paid by insurance since last season. Also, McGrady went through his usual pregame workout when inactive, not when he is playing. His pregame routine when he is playing does not include that workout or any on-court warm up. There were others I can't recall. Adelman and McGrady also deny they had a heated argument, but I did not see or hear that myself, as with the other things, so I cannot say what is true or not on that one. I have also had many people vehemently deny an argument during practice last week, but again, I did not see that myself so I cannot say first hand. -- Jonathan)

I think I remember reading after 41 games missed that every game after that 80% is covered. So if he missed every other game the insurance would cover 80% for 20 games whereas if he came back before the 41 games and then played every other game the rockets would have to pay him for all 40 remaining games.

I'm pretty sure that if there were actual insurance fraud, it wouldn't be discovered on a fan message board.

Especially fraud to the tune of $23MM.

Certainly it appears that the Houston Rockets are committing insurence fraud. An investigator from the insurance concern will liekly be reviewing these messages.
