[Clutchfans]Adelman has no interest in playing Tmac

Even an injured McGrady would shoot better than what Ariza is shooting now. Jacking up shots left right and center.

 

You maybe right. Maybe the GM tells them, I want to see him on the court and see how he plays?

 

With all of this stuff coming out, DM must be closing in on a trade. My guess is that no one really wants Tracy, and we would be lucky to get 2 expirings and a serviceable, younger player.

Oh basketball gods! Bring us Minny's number 1 pick!!!!!!!

 

Finally, a coach with some balls.

Gundy knew Tmac was a spoiled brat and caved in to whatever Tmac wanted.

Adelman is no push over and is doing what should have been done long time ago. Avery similar approach to what Phil Jackson would have taken.

Considering McGrady isnt that popular in Houston anymore and most people have realized what a drama queen he is, Adelman is probably comfortable with his decision.

Of course it helps that McGrady is just an average player now.

 

we finally agree!!!!!!!!! :grin:

 

At this point, its been a waiting game for Rockets fans for too long. The endurance of our fanbase has been tested too often. Francis, Mobley era, the let Yao develop era, the oft to injured Yao/Mcgrady era. WE WANT SOME CHANGE, AND WE WANT IT NOW. If Mcgrady isnt going to get on the court for WHATEVER the reason may be, trade his obsorbant tangy hov-around you call a contract, for something, to help boost us. Too many teams are free falling already this season, to not go ahead and strike a deal to give these inevitable losers some money to help their woes. The rockets have players that can take over the offensive end for a quarter maybe two. They need a Star. They need some talent. They need a players that can take over for weeks, if not months at a time. Tracy was that player. I dont know if he is capable of being that player again. For whatever reason, the Rockets dont want him back, fine. Just stop dragging your legs to deliver.

 

Darnit!

 

Adelman is really stupid for that Tracy is one of the best players bad move

 

His trade value was already bad this just makes it worse.

 

This is the part I dont get. Why damage his value more by making such a statement?

 

Not at all.

His trade value has always been his expiring contract, and the organization knows this.

Even if he played well, it wouldn't matter in trade value, no one is going to gu their team to pick up a contract that large.

Playing basketball means more than just shooting. You shoot, you defense, you pass, you communicates......

 

Adelman is such an a$$hole....

We waited for Tmac for a whole year and all we get is this...

 

I wouldnt say this makes it any worse. It is, what it is. I'm sure he is basically just a contract at this point (Mobley, Rahim). He might be slightly better, but essentially this is what a team would be getting him for. He will hand pick a destination this summer anyways, just not at the price he is expecting.

 

Yes, it would have. Right now, he's only going to be on the radar of rebuilding teams looking to dump salary. Basically only an option for lottery teams. If he was out there playing well it would at least catch the eye of .500+ teams with similar desires to dump salary while remaining competitive. Him being relegated to Marbury status does little good for us.

 

Ugliest situation I have ever witnessed. At least with the Marbury situation you knew what was going to happen.

 

No, YOU waited for Tmac for a whole year.

I think a good portion of us are willing to accept that he really doesn't have a significant role on this team and that his days are numbered in Houston.

 

I believe we could get more for him if he came back and played real good. I know we could. Maybe not a lot of teams would come knocking at the door but it could not hurt his trade value for him to play good for us.

 

This isn't a thread on T-Mac vs. Ariza, but McGrady can do all of the above but defend.
