    I hate when people bring up how much money he makes. Correct me if I'm wrong but are you paying him anything?

    Well, as a fan, if he buys memorabilia, jerseys, and tickets, then he's funding at least a fraction of the operations.

    IIRC, T-Mac went on like an almost two month span without topping the 50% mark once. That's terrible. With T-Mac it seems that injury is the rule, not the exception, so the team is going to have to make decisions with this in mind. You cannot possibly say his decline has been one extended freak incident when we know its not.

    and where do you think that rockets revenue comes from? the stock market? real estate investors?

    no that comes from the fans who pay money to watch the Rockets, the fans who buy those jerseys for $100 that probably cost $1 to make in China.

    Yeah, I pay for Tmac's salary and Yao's and Rafers and the rent on the stadium . Just like when you buy a hamburger at mc donald's you pay for that dude who flips that burger and the dude who wipes the floor.

    newsflash, they pay top dollar for players in hopes they produce a winning product. just like a ceo of a company, if the company sucks, they get rid of the ceo cause they are getting negative return on investment.

    Not directly, indirectly absolutely.

    You don't pay the CEO of Chevron, but every time you fill up gas, his company's revenue stream goes up.

    I get what you saying, but I still hate when people bring up the money thing.

    Mo Money Mo Problems

    At any job if you get paid alot of money, they have a high expectation of you. At least Tmac didn't get that massive 100million dollar Juwan Howard contract back in the day, where Juwan ended up not living to expectations.

    Where it took MICHAEL JORDAN to get rid of Juwan Howard and his massive contract.

    Well tracy might not be fully healthy, but apprantly he is moving freely so far in the training camp. so hopefully might translate to him having a better then expected start.

    and the revenue from the TV deals? the advertising?

    so yes, revenues do come from the stock market and quite possibly real estate investors.
