Tracy has now won Player of the Week honors four times this season. That is the most ever by a Rockets player in one season (Hakeem won it three times in 1993) and ties with Allen Iverson for the most by a player this season.
Most ever? Wow! I guess T-Mac continues to enter the Rocket's record books in only his first season in Houston
This is his forth. He is the only player in the NBA with four of these. Lebron has 3. Nash has two and I believe Shaq has 1.
I cant wait to see Tmac in the playoffs i think TMAC > than Lebron and it will be proven Tmac is a stud this year hes feeling it and Tmac out of the "Big 3" tmac kobe and lebron Tmac shot is untouchable and he is on fire I have confidence after this week he is just pouring it on Congrats. Tracy Mcgrady.
That is true. Iverson actually has four just like tmac. http://www.nba.com/video/pow0405_highlights.html Thanks for the correction.
MVP! MVP! MVP! Can those of you who have tickets to these last 2 games please get the chant started? Thanks.
