it was tracy's fault for not rehabbing properly and nobody can defend that. but even if he did rehab correctly, he shouldn't have started the season. shane battier was expected to start the season (b/c he did rehab) but he rehabbed wrong and thus that pushed his date back. therefore, tracy thought he had to play to get his team off to a good start seeing the schedule. doing that pushed tracy back. so had battier started the season, tracy would have sat out the first month as expected and tracy might be better right now. but that's all hindsight. tracy's job right now has to get back on the court and play well.
