    I'm pretty sure he was speaking for the whole team in that quote. In the same way players say WE didn't play hard enough or WE didn't want it.

    Tracy Mcgrady is probably working harder this year than he ever has in his career. He is just sucking because he has no athleticism.

    Maybe we need to go back to a simpler time, when the only T-Mac was 49ers CB Tim McKyer.

    Steve Francis, Mike James and V-span all PGs. How in the hell did Rafer and Head beat out James and Francis?

    IMO, these three never had a chance to show what they could do with game time minutes.

    Correct. He is always speaking for the team when the Rockets lose. When they win it is always what he did.

    I can't think of any player worth having back.

    Im going with Gay, I know we were never really drafting him for us but he was technically a Rocket for a brief period.

    I've been on board with this for a long time. A nickname should be earned.

    This needs to be a thread, maybe even with a poll. Make it happen BrooksBall. :)

    Is T-mac even a "cool nickname" it's not like the glide or the Dream, it's just a product of his first name and last name.

    I agree, he isn't playing well enough to deserve any kind of praise though.

    Now that we got Mutombo on board, I would have to say Sam Cassell.

    Lol, RJ is a scrub in my opinion he's really not that good to me.

    But most of that list is good except Gerald Green, he's pretty much LeBron. All the athletic ability in the world except no fundamentals what so ever

    ... Kelvin Cato... *shrug* jk ;)

    I'd like to have RJ and Rudy Gay back if possible. 2 not so smart trades. Oh yeah and maybe even Bibby... he's had more game than Stevie the last couple of seasons. Ya know.

    Athletic ability? Yes. Basketball ability? Not at all.
