    As far as piracy. It is not very likely.

    Looks like Feign and all those Rockets' insiders are not even at the practice, they are not allowed to enter the court. They are all waiting behind closed doors. So how come can those Chinise people sit there and even watch the practice.

    From Feigen's latest blog comments:

    hy Jonathan, how are some of the chinese reporters allowed to watch the practice, and you guys arent

    (They don't see practice. We are all allowed in at the same time. We see some shooting and occasional post-practice competitions without the coaches while doing interviews with other players. -- Jonathan)

    I'm sure if we had more footage we would have seen him go right some...and jump off his left leg.....when driving to the left side of the basket, for a lefthanded shot, you're supposed to jump off your right leg...alot of players just don't do it....cause they can't...that's something you have to practice for a while..(jumping off your oposite leg)....He already could do that, but I'm sure when training this summer he concentrated on that alot more to keep pressure off his other leg....there's so many things you can do on the basketball court when you're able to go both sides, and finish with both hands....and off of both legs....

    It is all in the comments from Morey, Adelman and Turner when they say they are worried about chemistry, or can Tmac play the style they are playing now.

    To me, it is quite obvious what they are doing, Tracy has to play hard on both sides, and within the system, BEFORE they let him on the floor.

    It is almost like they are breaking him down in order to build him back up.

    HOT DAMN! There is something so satisfying about watching him score on a defender. T-MAC makes it look good. It was like seeing Ariza Dunk all over the Cavs last night. So satisfying.

    Tmac is finally showing some life. Any nba player with his skill should abuse everyone in a one on one situation with no weak side help.

    I think the best part of the second video isn't the fact that he was scoring seemly effortless even on battier but the fact that at 52 seconds he shows tons of passion when the ball rolled off the rim on taylors layup. Anyone else notice home pumped he got.

    Okay, I've been as much of a proponent of the org over McGrady as anyone, but that second vid was nicccceeeee. First one I've seen where he's really jumping. Still not in a hurry to bring him back, but nice to see that he's definitely looking good. I'll say at least 2 weeks due to the fact we don't want him coming back during a 4 game in 5 day stretch, but some time after that should be good.

    I expect big things from McGrady. Why? Because he will be motivated as hard as ha has ever been.

    1) Money
    2) Show people he can still play at a high level
    3) If he is chosen for ASG - show people he DESERVES it

    Looks good. Hopefully RA brings him in soon. I need him active now that Granger is out. My teams are counting on MAC!
