    Doesn't dispute the fact that he was unlucky. Hill couldn't stay on the court and that probably cost them a shot at Duncan. Those 3 together and Orlando could have been looking at a Finals berth.

    Scrub? I don't understand how a "fan" can personally HATE a player so bad, to the point they become delusional. Yao was a beast during that season. But lets not forget the Rockets bread & butter was pick & roll. Who was the intiator of that pick & roll? Tracy Mcgrady. Tmac was also the closer on that team. In no way was he any kinda scrub

    Tracy will always be my favorite player of all time so I’m extremely happy for him being in the HoF and getting some recognition in our stadium.

    Actually just drove an hour to go pick these up as they were my favorite shoes as a kid.

    Unless you are in Orlando, the Rockets aren't going to honor Tmac for being in the Orlando Hall of Fame

    Dear Donkey, quit being a donkey. TMac was great. Take that hate into the corner and stay there with it until you can be rational.

    I was so excited when we got TMac. He was so exciting. I remember the rally he rolled in wearing a crisp white shirt .. it seemed like another ring was within grasp. Then Yao. Sigh. Never could build enough around them and then the injuries. When those two guys played together it was fun bball. JVG! It hurt alot how it fell apart hearkening the beginning of the mediocre ages of Kevin Martin and the asset crew.

    How far we've come.

    Hey why don't you tell us how fun the franchise was with Rick Barry in San Diego! That would be pretty awesome! How about the cocaine fueled Rockets of the 80s .. I bet with each win this current team racks up you lose a little piece of your soul. God forbid we win the championship this year right? That would be awful.

    I can’t see who he’s responding to but I have an idea.

    The poster he’s responding to has a personal vendetta against McGrady. The same guy arrogantly claims to be a super knowledgeable Rockets fan. But yet he didn’t even know the team came to Houston from San Diego or most of the team’s history pre 1990. He also thinks the mavs have a better owner and organization than the Rockets do (or did with Les Alexander).

    Laughable.

    Hence the reaction.

    Paul Pierce agrees.

    McGrady
