    That dunk had hang time, why are they not playing him more and just saying....GO?

    He seems to be getting in much better shape.

    Why did he only play 9 minutes in that game? He seems healthy enough to play at least 15-20 a game and should be doing so to get back into game shape.

    If he continues down this road, I'm sure a contender will be willing to pick him up as a rotation player in the offseason/trade deadline.

    But it's good. He'll get more time and he just would have to prove that he deserved much more. Pretty good challenge. But is he consistent and "selfish" enough, to start taking more shots to become much more aggressive and to work for his stats like Stuckey do?

    This is a very good thing for tmac meaning more minutes. He will now get Bynums minutes as well as the majority of the minutes behind Prince.

    I think Tracy is enjoying the role of a playmaker. Even in his hayday he used to say he was never a born scorer. His game has allways excelled at making others better.

    He is in much better shape and the knee doesn't seem to be the problem anymore.

    The thing is, he doesn't fit in Detroit. Kuester is in love with Tay and Rip and BG and T-Mac (even though they are sometimes better) have to play less because of that.

    I think so. Watching Will bynum is painful. The guy has no basketball IQ, he looks like the dumbest pg in the NBA. He keeps turining the ball over and over.

    He was out for few games and he should be out again.

    He and Stucky are SG's in PG's frames. They are not Point Guards whatsover

    I think this short rotation is what's best for McGrady.

    I expect him to play 20+ minutes a night if he's productive.

    It is not about being productive. It is up to him.

    The thing is, every player needs to KNOW his role and he should know how many minutes to expect night in and night out. You have Rip playing 32+ minutes and Ben Gordon whom they signed in the summer for 11 million is barely playing 20 minutes.
