    didn't we? t-mac wanted to play, he asked for a trade after the organization obviously wasn't looking to play him (and most likely trade him).

    If the Knicks continue to play at this level for the rest of the season, they're going to be a fun underdog team to watch.

    lol, aside from getting stats, I actually don't think he's playing that great. He is not nearly quick enough laterally to really do anything without screens or picks.

    Doesn't matter, the team had moved on, were not going to sign him again, so it was better for everyone that he was moved.

    Better for the Rockets and better for Tmac.

    I agree we should have let T-mac play more, but letting him go was a must. We are beginning a new era, and although I felt that McGrady should have been given at least an opportunity this year in Houston, I also felt that it was the right decision to let him go.

    T-Mac was a bad fit for Adelman's system. If he were healthy the whole time, they could have figured out. He wasn't, so cutting him loose was the only solution.

    Maybe not on his old MVP level but is he really much worse than Kevin Martin?

    T-Mac is making crisp passes and creating a lotta open shots for his teammates even when he doesn't get the assist.

    He's even drawn an offensive foul

    Not as good as a second quarter for McGrady after the great first quarter.

    Patience is key but mcgrady wasn't patient enough...he wanted more minutes...thats why he was sent home...once his initial revenge factor wears off he will come back down to earth

    Walt Frazier - "He had no reason to fade away. He was all alone."

    LOL. There will be plenty more of those. :)

    He has looked absolutely horrendous on defense.

    oh, and smoothie had a brilliant touch in his animation, with Morey asking for Frazier to be our commentator.

    i'd trade our Clyde for their Clyde. great vocabulary.

    I have a feeling that a hot first quarter would set up an epic fail from Tmac as he starts to jack up heat check 3s.
