    That was nice.

    You can see. He is getting better, better and better. 6 points, 4 asists and 4 rebound in 19 minutes. That's pretty damn good.

    But his free throws. He's never been great but he has missed 9 of his last 10. This means 10%. He is shooting 37% from the line. WOW.

    And his 3s will come. He looks nice.

    He is getting better and better, but he still has a long and i mean a long way to go. His shot is inconsistent and his movement is still nowhere near what it can be. Ithink he'll be good to go by january.He will be by far the best player on the Pistons.

    We should sign him. Yeah I sound crazy and yeah I'm a fan but T-Mac played like a man. He had no fear and in the 4th he had the guts to take shots. He's only 31 too!

    He's still jumping off his good knee and not the other knee...

    Adelman would rather slash his wrist then to re-sign McGrady. I highly doubt if he'll ever be a Rocket again. Plus i wanna see the Rockets rebuild next year and go young.

    That's the mental part.

    Once he gets over that (IF), he will only get better.

    He should seriously quit being a p***y and man up.

    A lot of people sure think he is going to get better. I think this is it. At the most he will be a 12-4-4 type player.

    Hope I'm wrong as I really hope he succeeds.

    12-4-4 omn a effecient clip is a good role player type stats. Nothing wrong with those.He is going to keep improving as the season goes on. The key is consistency. How will he play tonight after last nights game and can he have another good game..

    That dunk TheGreat posted is from his 07/08 season, I really don't think we'll see him dunk like that again

    12-4-4 is not bad for a role player. But this is freakin TMAC we are talking about. Pisses me off to think back and what could have been with him and Yao.

    Love Tmac, but the guy is either supremely r****ded or bipolar at the least.

    T-Mac is looking better. Will he recover and be a good role player like McDyess? I personally wouldn't mind seeing T-Mac do well somewhere.

    He looks like he has a chance to get himself to be another Suns-era Grant Hill.

    look at the spring in his step after the dunk when he stole the ball and drove down the court

    like i said, give him until february. i think tmac wants to try different moves every game to see if he can do it. when he sees it, he'll start trying to be like the old tmac.

    but man those fts are broke. gotta fix them

    Glad to see Tmac finally giving some effort again. I hope he returns back to his old self. That would be fun to watch.

    You guys shouldn't expect McGrady to be dominat from the start. Remember, he is only playing around 16 minutes a game. He plays defense every single night, he rebounds, passes the ball and is now trying to score.

    He is looking better and better. And I have never thought I would see a dunk like that from him. It is over 7 footer and it is in traffic.

    Let's wait until Prince is gone. He will get more minutes. He will be better. But this year every single game he is GETTING BETTER and better. That's great to me.

    5 pages worth of posts in one day for a scrub who scored 6 points in 19 minutes! based on all the posts riding his nuts everytime he scored you would have thought he got 50.

    yao is neither a whiner, a quitter or a loser.

    its amazing how supposed "rockets fans" continue to cheer on a scrub who quit on their team during a game and called another team to win the title while their own was still in the playoffs and accused the organization of screwing him over by only allowing him to play 8 minutes a game when he clearly was not healthy and constantly threw his teammates under the bus.

    there is a reason mcgrady has left every team he played a full season for on bad terms. at some point you TOFs need to ask yourself if its mcgrady or the toronto, orlando and houston fans and organizations.
