    So T-Mac clearly hasn't got his touch back.
    He looks a lot more comfortable though.

    It's gonna be interesting now since we don't have Landry.

    mcgrady making some good passes.... he's doing a good job fitting in. He seems to be hustling more today than yesterday.

    T-Mac with a block and a couple assists. FG% would be better but I don't think he feels like he should be taking any shots, trying too hard to pass first.

    Good play from McGrady. Like others have said, quickness and explosiveness are still lacking, but he is looking descent out there. I love his playmaking and it seems Ariza is being a much better player not having to dribble as much.

    I love it, I can't wait till McGrady is playing more minutes.

    What a DUMB deicion by Ariza. He knows he CAN'T SHOOT off the dribble but he still decided to dribble it and lose 3 seconds. Than at the last two seconds he passed it off because he had nowhere to go.

    As for Tracy. He is making progress. You can see he is still not 100% but that will come. I can say we can easuly give him more than 7 minutes.

    That definitely will come in time. He wants to fit in so bad in this team since everyone is pessimistic about how he is Me-Mac. The chemistry will get there with more games and more minutes.

    Did anyone see when TMac was at the top of the key and I think scola had it in the post. He could have had a wide open back door cut but didnt cut :confused:


    I hope he plays the 2nd quarter

    i have to agreee, Ariza looks better without the ball. with tmac in doesnt have to do as much ball handling.
