    What's your excuse when the Rockets won and everyone else showed up and McGrady still had these pitiful performances? It wasn't just last night. They've won with him doing this crap. Excuse?

    Actually GoKorea, someone on the rockets team probably needs to do exactly what KG did to Big Baby with T-Mac. Maybe Yao or Artest need to embarrass the guy or call the guy out. Someone on the rockets team needs to step up. His apathetic attitude has gotten old.

    Then if getting paid 20 mil a year and having the best opportunity of your career to win a championship isn't enough motivation, you shouldn't be in the NBA.

    And what do you think is causing this lack of motivation?


    His apathy towards the team?

    You have a point. If something is bothering him mentally then he will get over it.

    Because no one else on the team has quit. So there's your answer. If they have, please show me the video evidence. I'll show you mind of McGrady's if you want. I'm sure you've seen it.

    You didn't answer the question. WHy?

    Tracy is doing something worse than playing bad, but I do not think you can understand that...


    We desperately need Tinman in here for some education...

    The question is "when everyone else does bad, does it mean they quit? And to answer yours, no one has done it for a month, but we have a few people in shooting slumps at the moment.

    Look, not giving 100% is quitting. He has an entire city's hopes and dreams of a championship, an entire team's blood, tears, and sweat, fans who shell out their hard-earned dollars to see him complete. When those things aren't enough motivation for him to give it his all, he quit. Simple as that.

    King this whole thing is futile, give it up. Your swimming against the current on this topic. T-Mac quit on the rockets much earlier in the season. Now its finally become obvious to most people. Many gave the guy a pass because of his knee early in the season, but now there is no excuse.

    King,

    Yao played hard and struggled
    Ron played hard and struggled

    If Tmac played hard and struggled there would not be an issue.

    IMO, you should be rookified for this thread.
