i love, i mean love mcgrady, but he is killing our team with his poor play and his low energy. i dont care if its because he is hurt, he is in decline, or its something personal. with him out tomorrow, we will play with a higher degree of passion, energy and tenacity. this reminds me of 2006 with him dogging it out there but the difference is we have a lot more talent. the rockets coaching staff and management must take control of this situation instead of being dictated to by mcgrady on when and how he is going to play. enough!!!! sit him down and sit him down now and forever how long it takes until he is truly right physically and mentally.
I agree, if he is going to quit like he did tonight and the last few nights and not even try.....just sit him.....start Wafer....move on until MeMac decides he is ready to try again. But never...NEVER forget it...and if he plays well and a trade comes along that makes sense for the franchise....get him and his prima donna attitude out of here. DD
Didn't they play Boston the day before and barely lost that game, they are playing like trash now, and Philly was a good team last year, Rox are losing to 4 -23 teams
I don't understand why our "HOF" coach doesn't have the balls to just bench him. <br> Keep him on the bench/IR until he is, in whatever state he feels comfortable to play with intensity...
Don't know what is really wrong with TMac but if he is to decide when he can play or not, he should just do what is best for him and the team and really take all the time he needs to get well. The team will not go far without another 3rd scorer and I don't think that a trade will be in works that involves TMac.
i have noticed alot of t-mac apologists no longer apologizing for him. Thats when you know the situation has gone too far. This as close to an official sign that T-mac has made himself expendable in the eyes of the fans as it can get, only a matter of time before he is expendable in the eyes of the organization. I just hope it is sooner than 2010.
But he is the crux of all the problems, if your best player quits, it permeates throughout the locker room. Get rid of him, bench him, send him home, suspend him...anything.....but he should not see an ounce of the court until he proves...he is going to give effort. He has to start all over, he is like a guy cheating on his wife....hey wait..that also fits...for Grady. DD
haha. astue observation. i dun think yao ming the p***y can attract any marque free agents in 2010 though.
I agree he looks pathetic out there. He is/was my favorite player but I'm bout done with him. He's good at passing but we don't pay him to do that. I mean tonight was just embarrassing. Something has to happen.
dada...no need to go after him with the wife comment...that is over the line, but i agree with your sentiments...he is a BAD player right now. and he is not trying or he is seriously injured
That's because tonight was ridiculous. Usually he at least takes some shots and passes. Tonight he was just watching the oher guys play. I still say don't trade him. Ride this out and hope he gets a fire in his belly later in the season and hope for a playoff resurgence. Honestly I still think that would happen. I'm just worried about our regular season. If he never does break out of this then we'll have a nice fat contract to trade next year.
