    I missed the part where Grant Hill acted like a diva, quit on a team, and claimed to be healthy when he wasn't, and made an ass out of himself in 3 different cities.

    But other than that, yeah, they're the same guy.

    T-mac should just stop speaking all together so people will stop making a big deal out of everything he says. Although this might be the case only on Clutchfans and not nationally.

    Seriously what in the world does that have to do with what he said?

    He didn't say T-mac and Grant Hill were the exact same player/person.

    He said that Hill overcame an injury and maybe T-mac can do it too.

    I wonder what his minutes will be?
    Aren't the Pistons fairly competitive at several positions?
    At least for him, he's not the only player on Detroit trying to come back from injury.

    He does. What's more, he's lost some weight and you can see that. His legs are skinny so I guess that's a good sign. He looks to be in pretty good shape, but can he play?

    Who cares what he says. He has to prove himself again.

    Eh he's no longer a Rocket hope dude has a good year. Good year means good basketball, Isn't that what we all want? Detroit seems like a good place for him. This does seem like one if not his final shot to prove himself. If he can lose his ego and just be a team player that might turn his career around.

    he said it when he was here as well.....


    i think the explosiveness is an issue...even if he's healthy that may be an area of his game he won't get back, which was what made him "tmac"...without it he's just an experienced Shaun livingston with a slightly better shot.


    If it's fat. If he's gaining muscle and it's well distributed, then it actually will help him avoid injuries. He really needs to add lower body strength, not sure why he's not gaining size there like on his upper body. Maybe genetics.

    Yao is an anomaly. He's just too tall. His feet aren't made to balance that much weight. For Tracy, it's just a matter of losing weight. Back spasms really can't be prevented, but he didn't have knee problems until he packed on weight with the Rockets...

    I'm sure it is (or was) the case in Toronto and Orlando as well. It's not a big deal until you experience his act first hand. I'm sure it'll be like that in Detroit soon enough.

    He jogs from 3 point line to 3 point line. I mean, what more to you want him to do? How else is he supposed to impose his will?

    No it is not what alot of people on here want. Although alot of people will perhaps say ye it would be good to see him play well and then rip him, but really inside they want to see him fail, because it will almost prove them right in a way. If Tracy comes back this season and has a great year, then it will make alot of people on CF look silly
