TMAC was treated like a god here compared to what NYC will do to him. His fragile ego will never handle this.
Let me say it again. It is FREAKIN' AMAZIN! how many assets Morey was able to squeeze out of a washed up superstar, an undersized power foward (having a career year) and an old undersized prospect who may have peaked in college! Just give the new guys time to get accustomed to how things run around here and they'll be fine!
If you look closely you can see him drop an F-bomb as he limps away after he makes his last 3. Poor guy, prolly knows something feels wrong yet again.
I just don't know if Tracy has the mentality or the durability to battle back from micro fracture. You look at a couple of guys who did make it back- Stockton and Grant Hill...those guys were ego-less, mentally determined pros. Tracy has too fragile of an ego, and will just keep making excuses...then proclaim he's back...then make more excuses. Then it will end badly and he'll say that he did "everything he could do."
Add that to being on a losing squad and the locker room tension that brings and it could potentially get ugly in NY.
Maybe this guy doesn't even make it through the season. I honestly believed he was healthy and would quit next season after realizing nobody believes he is more than a role player anymore. I guess I might have given him too much credit. I'm sure he can cry himself to sleep in his gigantic vault of money.
Where's all the people who were praising tmac after saturdays performance and blaming adelman for not giving him a chance
i feel bad for him. you can see it on his face. he mouths the words "f@@k" and just looks disappointed. kinda like the expression charles had when he went down for good.
Um, I disagree. As long as there is a Knick fan on the staff of si (and there are a lot) every Rockets fan should despise the Knicks. Do a freaking Knicks cover now si. While you're at it, do a special championship edition for your darling Knicks. Bastards, all of them. I crap on the Knicks and especially si.
He will have periodic tweaks he has to learn to fight through them, the knee is sound, the head...well.... DD
Right on schedule. Can't wait till 3/21 when Mini K-Mart drops 40 while Tmac's ass is on the bench wearing street clothes. How can you feel bad for the dude after the **** he pulled on us? Then had the nerves to b**** about his minutes when RA didn't think he was ready? Now he's getting what he's always wanted, right?
Where are those threads asking about whether or not we would be in a better position to be in the playoff race with him? Where are the threads talking trash the way RA was handling his minutes per game? Where are the knee-jerk (appropriately named for the occasion) threads about T-Mac's debut? Yeah, our trade for Kevin Martin and co. is looking better by the day. (P.S. I am not hating on T-Mac; rather, hating on some of the brilliant posts/threads some people have made lately.)
He's had an entire year of rehab and physiotherapy with Tim Grover, even had microfracture surgery to repair the 'quark-sized' injury on his knee, and he's already hobbling on that knee again after two games? What the hell is actually up with his knee? I'm beginning to think it's mental. He also needs to adopt a new playing style that doesn't require him to use his legs so much. ie Set shots instead of elevating on shots.
