    After watching him all season, I find your analysis of McGrady to be completely wrong. Every. Single. One. of. Them. I'm not sure what you watched in Orlando or if you're just not a good evaluation of talent, but TMac is one of the most unselfish, gifted players I have ever seen. Maybe he was different in Orlando, but he sure as hell hasn't been like anything you've said in Houston.

    McGrady rarely shoots the three when setting up the offense, but when he does, honestly all of them I've seen go in. He knows when he's feeling it and should shoot, and you can truely see it just by watching. I feel like I know a shots going on just by his actions.

    And no, he has never dribbled the ball out and waste down the shot clock. Ever. In fact he passes to a wing, runs off a double screen for a post up usually. I'm not sure if you have been watching the Rockets this season, or just thinking he'll do the same thing you say he did in Orlando.

    Tmac passes when he gets DOUBLE teamed, let alone triple teamed. Go read the article from today's chron, that's all you need. JVG said it best, when he's doubled or tripled, he finds the open man and trust his teammates. When he's being played one on one, I don't care how many shots he takes.

    So no, as bitter you might be at the fact of losing McGrady, well actually calling us idiots for thinking Orlando would even do the deal, you should quit posting your bias McGrady bashes. He has not been given a free ticket, and nor should he. He hasn't needed one, he's a better player than I thought -- and I used to think he was top 5 in the league. Orlando lost one of the most gifted, if not most gifted, players in the NBA. I don't care if you make it to the finals this year and we're a lottery team, in the long run we will have more championships than you.
