    That's the thing, he's only 'trending' to you...I know that's hard for you to see though when his ballsweat is stinging your eyes.

    Really? Didn't I know it?

    Anyway

    Some of you just can't realise how media is really working

    The guy is interesting for the media only if he is a sensation, only if he is doing something we won't expect

    If the guy is continuing to do so, media will get bore and will stop posting anything cause nobody is gonna read the same **** but in another blanket. They will stop because of it until he's getting to the next level

    If he stays in the same rhytm there will be nothing new to say

    If he gonna suck, nobody is gonna post an articles like McGrady (John Wall, Greg Stiemsma etc) is sucking again with 4 PF and 4 TO in 9 minutes of game

    They will just forget that this guy exists

    So there is no way to expect that this trend is going to continue in the next few weeks or month, if he won't breakout into a star. But he won't, cause he doesn't want to.

    That's all

    off course, t-mac was trending on twitter yesterday because I wanted people to post about him. Journalists are interviewing him because some guys on a clutchfans.net will read it, not a guys on their sites. Even Nba.com posted him in the main page just because I asked them about that

    You are looking miserable without the understanding of what media-trending is all about

    THE POINT IS YOU DON'T NEED TO START A NEW THREAD EVERY TIME SOMETHING IS SAID OR WRITTEN ABOUT MCGRADY, YOU DOLT.

    Hopefully the caps get the point across better.

    Wow, I thought you were just a big fan, now I know the problem is bigger than that...nba.com posted him just b/c you asked them? You've got issues.

    And I can realize that this T-Mac threads are baaaaad things if we were at the time, when something is going on. Trade talks, free agent buzz, talking about playoff possibilities

    And what are the main news over there? Waive Nate to the Warriors? Solomon Jones to the LAC? Wow, that's impressive

    The only news that are valuable are about Manu's injury and K Love extension

    They are two and three pages there respectively

    Nothing is wrong

    Love McGrady, but this is too much. Mods, Clutch, or whoever is on duty, if you can merge this with the main thread, it would be much appreciated.

    And I answered for you that it won't happen in the future because people are going to get use to it and nobody is going to be interested, so there will be no need to post it.

    WTF are you reading to?

    You are being deliberately obtuse. From now on, just put any McGrady stuff in an existing thread. Is that so hard to understand?

    New thread is ok. I might've missed this if it was in the other thread.

    I'm fine with videos being a thread when warranted, but we probably don't need this many McGrady threads.

    Actually, I may be wrong... this is an interesting interview and probably could stand as a thread, but _RTM_, you've got a bit too many McGrady threads going on these days.

    Anyways, your explanation doesn't warrant all these threads.

    I distinctly remember that he tried to get onto a contender this season. It's silly that he now says he didn't want that. He just took the best offer he got. They preferred to sign Battier...

    The other funny thing is that he inadvertently implies that the Hawks have zero chance to contend. I mean, it's pretty much known, but it's another thing to say it about your own team.

    I kind of wish him the best, anyway. Some of the hate he gets is too much, I think.
