    fixed.


    tmac does not give a crap---I'm tired of this. Here are his options:
    Play like you care or
    sit his azz, (hell even wafer can give you more)
    trade his azz
    retire

    tmac IS the reason why we lost. with him on the court and his non ability to do ANYTHING effective is the reason you force players like alston whos on the perimeter with him to take shots hes not accustomed to. tmac was absolute trash tonight. when he got the ball in his hands you knew that it wasnt going to work out. I say give tmac a leave of absence till the all star break because with him on the court hes not getting any better. He really needs to hit the weight room. I just dont see how you expect him to get better if hes getting weaker when hes already fragile. That **** dont add up

    That was the first time I've ever heard Worrell say that we'd have a better chance to win if T-Mac was benched. I was floored that it would ever come to that, but I agreed.

    I disagree that T-Mac has quit on Houston like he did in Orlando. No, in this case, it's his aging deteriorating body that has him popping open a can of quit. In Orlando, it was constant losing that caused him to mail it in. Unfortunately, either way, the end result is the same: we're screwed.

    Even for Tracy, today was a very, very sad performance. I did not think he could top his Cleveland performance, but he sure as hell proved me wrong....

    It's like a 2 game difference from 2-9 so how are we locked to make it?

    my theory is that tmac will show up after the trading deadline, to me, he is playing lazy because he don't want to be traded( i know its stupid but thats what i think...) so his value go down and no team want him. :rolleyes:
    He will show up after the trading deadline mark my words. lol

    His lack of effort and confidence would definitely demotivate the team and boost up the performance of Rox oppenents. I don't think we would need TMac's continuity under those circumstances.

    As Ron Ron says: Play hard to lose with dignity. I hope our franchise player could recognize the significance of Ron's attitude.

    Need to play wafer more, at least he will attack the basket more and chase his man down.

    He is out of shape, he doesn't need rest, he needs to work.

    And he needs to quit sulking and start playing.

    Now he is sulking? Is that the new fan fiction on this fine Rockets discussion board? What is he sulking over, if I may ask.

    how can we believe in this leader?
    we on the earth need a leader who can throw the last ball,can ask others to do what they should do and protect our rebonce,but no one in this team can do this job!
    what a terrable thing,what a sad thing,a NBA team have no leader!I wonder the rox is whose rox!T-mac,Yao,or the rookies`? :(

    Maybe. After the game said he felt pretty good. But come one, he had NO jumpshot at all. Just missing every good look. But damn in New Jersey he was making them.

    He said: 'I'm not 100%' - he should sit. I don't wanna hear that. He is a horrible speaker. You are not feeling that you can play well, take those several weeks our and don't piss us off.

    1 more thing, when he is damn under the basket he has to SHOOT it. I am tired of him beating his man off the dribble, and than whe he has nice shot he passes it out. His game is pathetic right now, and probably because he doesn't give a f***. He needs to damn show some heart and work hard during practices.

    Tracy is that you? LOL. I guess Tmac is going to be the Western Conference Gilbert Arenas. Half man, half a season, half ass everything else. Trade him in a package deal and get us Redd or Nash because we either need some points right now or some leadership on the floor and Tmac aint got neither.

    When he took his three week vacation
    the call sign was CONSISTANCY
    the rockets went into games knowing he was not going to be there
    so they played like it
    now
    how do they play? Will he be there? Will he be TMAC or will he be tracy?

    The other players have to adjust on the fly cause they don't
    know which McGrady will show up
    the Coaches too

    Until he can be consistant he needs to rest/sit/see a psychologist
    or whatever

    I'm noticed McGrady half ass'ing it since last season.
    Taking off on plays that don't involve him.
    Moving at the speed of an old man when he's rolling around the pic.
    Constantly making stupid plays.
    No defense.
    I know someone who actually works for McGrady. I asked him last year "why can't he play more loke the way he did in Orlando, you know go in hard, take over a game....stuff like that". He begins preaching how he's an all around player now, but it's not contributing to wins I told him. Next thing I know I'm classified a "Tmac hater" for stating my suggestion. Gimme a break.....look at the guy this year. He is the epitome of half ass'ing it. Believe me I was as big of a fan as any, but enough is enough. The guy's lost that killer instinct, which I feel a top player needs and which McGrady had. When he drilled those 3's at the end of the Spurs game or when he raped Shawn Bradley years back. He had that killer instinct, but it's long gone now. Lebron, Anthony, Iverson, Kobe, lord knows Wade has it and that's who I hope we could land.
