    U cant lead without followers! Tmac has always done his part in the playoffs!!
    Check out his stats and ull see that he always came to play in the playoff, his teammates didnt!!

    U can never put all the blame on one guy, it takes 5 to win!!!

    Leave T-mac alone! He worked his vagina off while he was a Rocket and this is the gratitude he receives in return?

    yeah i had functional scoliosis over the last few years due to various injuries that screwed up my aligment and just recently rehabbed back to form. Looking at tmac's rehab videos i saw the exact same stretches/exercises or others with the same objective that really helped me. Tmac's has his issues with running his mouth, but i still feel sorry for him because i know scoliosis can really screw up the way you play ball.


    I dont need anything "cleared" up, as i wasnt defending what tmac said or didnt say in the past.

    There's been NUMEROUS times in the past year or so where i felt "fine" and like i was back as well. With scoliosis you can stretch and pop yourslef back (like tmac did with that witch doc) and feel great, even 100%. Then all of a sudden some time later the aches and pains start again because somewhere along the way your aligment got out of wack again. There's no way to know how long you'll stay fixed or when you'll get out of aligment again. It can happen playing ball or even when you move during your sleep.

    I've hated on tmac in the past for what he's said, but having some of the same personal experiences i can understand why he'd believe he was fine one moment only to show later he wasnt. I can also identify with the extreme frustration one can have because you never know if tomorrow is the day you'll wake up out of it again. For that reason i can't act like he's trying to pull a fast one on us because it's his body that pulled a fast one on tmac.

    With this condition no one can really relate to you unless they've had it as well. ****, i've gone through this back and forth with my own friends and family as well, saying i'm fine and then i'm not and eventually they just didnt know whether to believe me or not. I can understand why they'd doubt, but my body is fooling me too, so i'm not fooling people on purpose when i give myself a timetable.

    I really think the Bulls were ready to offer McGrady a non-guaranteed contract, but his obsession with starting and his whole "without me and Boozer this is a .500 team" comments gave them second thoughts. Sad, really.

    pretty much...they want rose running the show with boozer being the alternative and everyone else being complements.....tmac would need the ball or be a below average spot up shooter or hustle guy.

    Bulls needed a shooter Tom says...

    Rejected and replaced by?

    Keith Bogans?!?! A shooter?!?! lol....

    The best Bogan can do as a shooter is Gilbert Arenas.

    What a b**** slap by the Bulls.

    It was more like 28 in the first half. Mcgrady was in full beast mode in the second quarter and scored 13 straight points. He helped cut down a 14 pt deficit to 4 at halftime.

    That just unfair. He belongs with guys like Magic, Bird, Dr. J, and of course the best basketball player ever:

    Right, and compared to both this guy and T-mac, you are just pathetic.

    I'm sorry but it's true.

    T-mac should just sign the vet minimum already. I feel bad for him. His fragile body is broke down. Hopefully Yao doesn't become like T-mac plagued with injury.
