    did you seriously think tracy was NOT going to want more minutes after he plays? it's common sense here. i think the team knew it too.

    let's be real, don't listen to what morey or anybody say publicly. around the league, the moment tracy played, they have said it's a showcase for a trade. sitting him out now means the team is done with its showcase.

    again, doing this is the same thing tracy did last year: taking a player out of a lineup can disrupt a rotation. thank god tracy only plays 8 minutes.

    Didn't Mcgrady said he is not suppose to be playing right now? Yet he still playing.

    Adelmans still bitter about the time tmac called him out on a playoff loss because he didn't have deke in the game for the rebound that cost us the game against the jazz.

    I really hope that this opens up time for C-Bud.. I will be damn pissed if he doesnt play 28-30 mins a night from now onwards... he is so much better than Ariza.

    Again, its the fact they are making McGrady sit out because of its comments regarding increase in minutes. It might have been okay if it was after couple more games.

    Nope, they don't need him jacking up shots either........I am with you on that......trust me...

    I want Brooks to be the guy....Trevor to take a significant back seat.

    And I have CONSISTENTLY SAID THAT !!!!!

    Nice try though...Next !

    tracy looked unprofessional doing it last year. and the team is looking unprofessional doing it this year.

    if you think this is how you treat a normal superstar (or has been superstar), you're wrong. look at how one little comment made in regards to wade not being in great shape to start this year has swirled trade talks of wade wanting out of miami (and he probably does now). and we all know how amare responded to phoenix's management and he will leave next year too. and there are many more examples.

    players talk. and we all know tracy will talk.

    So you want a pat on the back for that? We lost by double digits in the last 3 games on the road. Close doesn't matter.

    T-Mac is such a little panzy, he can't keep his mouth shut, he loves the media and spotlight on him, he even talks like he's getting a bj when he's in front of the cameras. This guy needs to take his act/ego to another team.....maybe the JAzz or MAvs can take him...

    It is not unprofessional at all to take control of the team or it's players.

    The one being unprofessional is Tracy, when he knows what their plans are, he just DOESN"T LIKE THEM....so he complains to the media

    AS HE ALWAYS FRICKEN DOES !!!!!

    And then..."What? Me? I didn't mean it !"

    LOL - I mean the dude is undermining the organization and team with all the talk about his playing time, his contract, everything......

    He is just too dumb to shut up and play........

    Good riddance !

    The team will probably play Jermaine Taylor and see what he has to offer, and if he hustles and the team performs.

    Well...Tracy may have played his last game as a Rocket.

    Where Tracy wants to be should be of no concern to the Rockets at all.....

    The fact we took the lakers to a game 7 with out tmac should tell you we don't need him, especially when we can get decent value backf or him in a trade.

    What makes you think tmac can help us win a championship? honestly.

    he's played for three teams, he's quit on three teams.

    I'll reiterate, tmac apologists are officially more annoying than YOF.

    I'm not sure what else you would do if you were tracy.. I know the man is flawed to the core.. but I dont see anything wrong on his part to ask more playing time.. how would have you handled it ? esp when no one is listening to you now?

    its a business. he wants to play for a contract.. thats his reason. very valid.. when your employer is not listening.. you complain through a medium that would ensure that you are heard..

    Rockets wants him out.. they want to develop new talent.. very very valid..

    I dont see anything WRONG on either side.. just get rid of him

    and give more time for C-Bud ;)
