    We need a postseason run not just a good seed; if we were really a great team I wouldn't worry about any matchup. This T-mac drama is destroying morale. Should just let him rest and give our backups some experience

    If the lovers of tmac still want him around after this game, after bill and matt called him out, then they have serious issues.....

    We aren't winning games with Tmac right now so instead of destroying chemistry and morale just let the man rest. We'll need a healthy Tmac and good team chemistry come playoffs

    think about it. What are you gonna get in return for him around the league? his value is low. The best thing for the rockets right now is to sit him out for 2-3 months and let him "heal up"

    What kind of person can POSSIBLY defend Tracy right now? After seeing the showing he just gave, this entire board should be calling for a reason for the show of ZERO effort. If it's a personal problem, TAKE TIME OFF. The injury excuse doesn't fly because you can still give some effort.

    I've never seen a player give such a crap effort before. He was just standing there and watching from the court. I could've done what he did today. JUST PATHETIC! I'm in for benching him or trading him. He's done.

    Don't trade him, just let him sit at this point. He doesn't want to play and is forcing the teams hand in letting him sit. He's a punk a** little B who makes Kelvin Cato look like he's got heart.

    Keeping him on the team shows to the other players that the Rockets accept quitting.

    Trade him for a bag of chips and a hot dog. Or buy him out and spend 20 million to give away free tickets for the rest of the season.

    hows it possible to just get good team chemistry when Tracy is out for a long period of time?

    I might get some respect back for Tracy, if he plays tomorrow with energy. (I know that his crappy plan is one game out of back to back.)

    hahahha keep dreaming kid. He can have all the rest he wants, his ass will still show NO passion, no heart and intensity for the game. He gave up on the Rockets. Trade his non factor ass. Like i said all you bandwagon tmac fans yalll need to give up on him cause he has given up on his own team. Trade his ass NOW! Even Bill and Bullard called his ass out! How embarrassing and demoralizing.

    Two Words?

    Now is it "He's Hurt?" or "He's Done"?

    I have a feeling he is not feeling good and when the team stinks, it gets worst for him.

    Didn't help Luther went 0 for 5 to start the game and Yao when 1 for 11 in the middle of the game.

    Hey, if the rest of the Yahoo's on the team can't do jack, why should he?

    Wrong thinking but what else we got? If he's done, then this season is over and we are stuck with a 20+ million contact. Don't want to believe this becuase it is a long way to next season.

    Keeping a little faith but man T-Mac is making it hard. Rest up and get better for the playoffs. (If you are still on the team!).

    This team can make a run with Von Wafer playing hard and with energy, Luther hitting outside shots, and Barry being a leader on the court. Basically this team can make a run if Tracy isn't a part of it

    This quitting seems to run in the Mcgrady bloodline. Half man Half season comment is spot on! You can't just turn it off and on again when you're getting paid 20mill.

    but out of the "big 3".. he's the most obvious choice.. as far as trading goes.. as he's been the most problematic to the team as a whole.. for the reasons that he continues to exhibit a high maintenance personality.. inclined to moodiness.. indecisiveness.. and passive-aggressiveness.. all the while producing the least.. demonstrating a more declining quality of play.. an inconsistency to the offense.. and apparently.. a poorer recovery rate to injury.. out of the three..

    or maybe it means they're willing to give more PT and more responsibility to the rest of the players while Mac heals up till March. Look the Rockets are still right in the middle of the playoff picture, if they can hang around the 6th - 8th seed till mid March they'd be just fine. I'm not backing Mac but he's hurting. Wouldn't you rather have him at 100%. Plus with him sitting down this boards precious crown jewel, Von Wafer can get more PT and they can see whether he's legit or just having a fluke start to the year. This could bring the rest of the team together and make them play harder...The Rockets obviously have enough talent to stay afloat till March

    Or send him to the D league? seriously, make a statement, prove a damn point. This crap should not be allowed from ANY player on this team.
