    I'll be honest, I've been a huge fan of TMAC since he came into the league. I've always said he and Stevie were my favorite players for a long time now.

    However, I'm a Rockets fan first. If it means the team gets better and we have a better shot at a championship (and it's not a huge risk), I'd back it.

    BUT, I'd be really sad to see him go.

    I would be sad. I can't lie. I just wish one of these years we have a season where Yao and Tracy play 75 games together.

    I can't see any scenario where I think we will have upgraded by trading Tmac.

    I have thought about it and played with the trade machine (the old one, but still has some pertinent info) trying to figure out if anything is worth it or likely.

    So I would probably be upset since in my mind it would be a step backward.

    I don't think there is any way it ould happen. What about Mike Miller and Memphis's first round pick??

    Nah. There is no way we could ever get another star for Tracy. We would have to get two or three above average players, which I wouldn't mind.

    If we got better, I would be happy. If we got worse, I would be mad. I wouldn't be sad though as I'm not a big fan of Mac.

    if we improve from the trade, then i feel fine. as long as the rockets win, that's all that matters. i would like back a starting PG (legit), SG, and maybe a decent bench player.

    if we get worse, well, instead of first round and out, maybe lottery?

    Don't think there's a trade out there that would give us fair value so I would be more than a little Po'ed

    If it helps us out I will be accepting of it. I'm not happy with him most of the time,but I don't want him to be traded if it weakens us. Despite all that I'm a softy,so I will feel a bit sad if he leaves.

    If we lost TMac, I would send out an amber alert cause he is our best passer, and outside scorer.

    Not likely!

    If it happened, I would be very upset. We need to give him another shot with a healthy team.

    that's why if we can get billups + hamilton, i think this town would be happy with that deal.
