    T-Mac deserved to be booed. He quit on the team in the Toronto game--he stood at the three point line and didn't move because he was throwing a hissy fit. He screwed the organization over with his microfracture surgery because he found out his ass was going to be traded. Anyone who loves T-Cancer more than the Rockets is a TOF.

    We're glad you don't live in Houston, too. Keep the idiots in Miami.


    The Answer: FIRE MOREY

    Stay in Miami.

    uh.. who was he gonna tell? RA and DM? those two who were about to ship him out to NJ for VC?

    that's why he announced the surgery. he was about to get traded to NJ but he didnt want to leave houston. he made the announcement to cockblock that betrayal by RA and DM.

    rocket's should be greatful, team wouldve been stuck with VC.

    also, tmac told the trainer. just not RA and DM.

    All this t-mac booing bickering is funny...personally I can careless about T-mac..the guy had some great times with the franchise but being a former athlete I understand why fans boo...Once you QUIT on your team like he did the raptors game, you lose a lot of respect from fans, teammate or even coaches. No matter the circumstances you never quit on your team plain and simple...The drama t-mac put the fans through the last season he was here was sorta like whats playing out in washington with Albert Hanyesworth

    There we go, he dogged Houston by putting himself above the team and the organization.

    I love TOFs.

    2/3 championship rings :( granted moses didn't win a ring with the rockets but he at least got us to the finals (unlike yao) and took one of the greatest nba teams of all time to 6 games

    he's an original though, drafted by the Rockets. he's not a hired gun, we watched him grow as a player and a person. that's why he's loved.

    We didn't watch McGrady grow, he came in already as a superstar.

    Yao is a pure Rocket.

    funny.

    what do you want dude? to go back in time like that nerdy dude in Heroes and try to change people's minds at Toyota Center?

    Live with it, it's over, Tmac is a Piston, the people at Toyota Center last night wanted to boo him and if that shocks you, then haven't been following the Rockets very well.

    The Orlando fans booed him and the Rockets fans booed him and the Toronto fans booed him. it's not shocking and he doesn't care so that means his followers shouldn't care either.

    who said it shocked me? i dont care either way. i was too busy cheering for the rockets to care about a player not even relevent to this team anymore. shoot. i was talking about yao not mcgrady.

    I don't ever remember Head camping out at the three point line in a game and refusing to play, letting his teammates go four on five.

    I don't care how many points you get in a game. If you never get past the first round you're a loser. If you quit on your team and refuse to play you're a piece of ****.

    both head and mcgrady are losers.

    if you dont at least get the conference championship you're a loser imo. yao would fit that criteria as well until proven other wise

    Very plain and simple, anybody who booed TMac is a dumb ass.

    You are doing Head a grave disservice by comparing him to McGrady. McGrady is a piece of ****, not just a loser. What makes him a piece of **** is camping out at the three point line in the Toronto game and refusing to play. When did Head ever do anything that was remotely comparable to that?

    As for Yao, at least he's been past the first round. Why has McGrady never been past the first round? Because he's a cancer on whatever team he plays on. His chances of getting anywhere in the playoffs are better now than ever because he is so broke down that he can't be a major piece of any team that he plays on and his ability to play the prima donna is reduced.
