    It's just one half, but I'd like to see T-mac get to the line more often.

    I want to look in the face off everybody who thought that vet min on this guy was a waist in offseason after what he is doing with teams, that represented ecf and wcf in NBA Finals

    McGrady plays better when his angry and with a scowl.

    By design.

    He is just lucky to have found a team and teammates to let him play that role.

    i have to admit, in this game, he has played like a "star."

    controlling the pace, every possession goes through him, kobe actually is getting up on him and getting burned... and this is on a b2b.

    hopefully great signs of things to come

    and u wouldn't want that? he's having the pistons look like a bonafide playoff team when he's on the floor. too bad he can't play 40 minutes.

    PS - he's on pace for 36 mins tonight, after 34 last night. wow if he can sustain his play in the 2nd half, his confidence should be great going forward

    Tmac looks in great shape. For the last couple of games he has been playing big minutes (30+) and does not look tired at all.

    Tmac has his swagger back. He needs to take care of the ball better, but most of them were being creative.

    McGrady is actually playing pretty good defence.

    Good to see. I hope he continues to improve and signs up with a contender next season.

    McGrady definitely has the Pistons moving but I can't keep my hopes just yet.

    I know this is completely off topic, but if Tracy ever plays the Rockets; I hope he torches the hell out of Budinger so that Terrence Williams can get some playing time.

    However Rockets blowing out Pistons > Tracy doing well.

    Is it me or the Pistons are like the slowest team to set up offence

    it takes 3 seconds for Tmac to dribble to mid court, then it takes another 5 seconds for him to wave off some picks, point to some plays, then everyone stands there for 3 more seconds, finally it's another pick and roll...

    Pretty sure they can do that without taking 10 seconds off the shot clock

    It's their tempo all the season and it really works. They spread the floor in halfcourt, everybody from PG to PF can shoot and their center is just screening and getting after offensive rebounds. It is that simple

    That's why T-Mac looks slowly sometimes cause he doesn't need to play on full speed everytime

    I like how he drove in, but missed the easy lay up.
