How come its a different reaction when its McGrady compared to Yao being out? Not saying its a positive or negative either way, just feels different.
Well, I guess this is good for T-Mac. Hopefully we can make a run at Carter with the Artest Deal. I feel that Carter and Yao can really do something in the playoffs.
les did say today that "watch out for announcements" coming out the next few days. this is the announcement. tracy just can't keep his mouth shut. it was slow to report on yao's stress fracture last year too.
So lets say we do get to the second round this year, is TMac going to try and say he got to the second round because he was on the roster?
I wonder if T-Mac decided to give his buddies at ESPN the scoop out of some spite for the Chronicle writers and the way they have treated him this season so far.
I'm not 'calling BS' but just because Tmac tells SAS that he is done and needs surgery......does not mean that he needs surgery. but, surgery or not, I dont see how Mac can play again....at least in Houston. This is all so odd.
Because people use like 10 or so regular season games against sub par opponents as evidence that the team is better without tmac. Yao didn't give people a reason to believe that last year. But honestly, losing tmac is equally depressing to me.
b/c doctors say, his knee WILL NOT GET ANY WORSE. so after 2 weeks of working out, what do you want him to say? if you can't get any worse, you gotta get better right?
At least all the drama and distraction is finally over with him. The Rockets can finally move on and not worry about the uncertainty of who will be in and who will be out of the lineup. Just hoping that it is only season ending and that he can return next season.
we have the pieces. nobody is asking yao to carry the team. we have enough talent to make the playoffs (hell contend for a high seed) and get past the first round. we got the #4 seed last yr with much LESS talent and competed hard in the first round. i expect this team to fight harder and play at a higher level now knowing the fate of tmac.
getting surgery is a crap move. He should rest it for a month then get injections in the playoffs. Suck it up TLack
