    Looks like McGrady doing PR work to pump up his value. We'll see how this works out but good to see some inside look at a player. Sorry T-Mac you dont fit all those things they are trying to sell like mental preparation, team building and overcoming adversity but then again I could be wrong.

    Anyway queue up the Rocky theme cause we have a comeback in the making.

    I hope you making it more entertaining than Kobe Doin Somethin Somethin.

    "Skillzlab members will be able to access “Professor McGrady’s Lab,” where he will virtually instruct on subjects such as Nutrition, Strength and Conditioning, Mental Preparation, Equipment, Life Skillz and his hobby, Playstation 3 gaming."

    surely. you. jest.

    what the hell were these people thinking asking tmac to do this?

    just take the kids to mickey ds and best buy on a bus and save the effort.

    I dont think McGrady has the mental toughness to play halo.

    He's going to make some videos and pretend to condition so that he can get some publicity.

    Why so negative?

    Put yourself in his position, he's obviously going through a lot of adversity. I mean I'm no fanboy but you can show some respect that he's actually REHABBING for start.

    Lame idea made into a lame article followed by equally lame responses from Clutchfans. Thanks for sharing OP, I'll check it out for grins but I'm not going to read too much into it.

    [SkillzLab] McGrady

    Site just opened today I believe. Does anyone have a premium account so they can post info about him?

    Theres a tab that says "Labz" and if you click on the "T-Mac" tab it wont let you in unless you have a premium camp.

    Thanks.

    Skillz #2 - Gotta learn to limp. When the 20 foot jumper isn't falling and you still don't want to go to the basket a good limp will fool the fans and the coaches into thinking you actually care.
