It depends. If the Rockets got some one great in return, I'd be excited. If the Rockets just give him away like Memphis gave away Gasol, I'd be furious. Still, I don't think he's getting traded. His value has really diminished due to his constant injuries and inability to lead a team out of the first round.
I would hit myself in the head untill I got a lazy eye too so I could always hold on to the memories.
Really, I don't want to see that happen. T-Mac has brought us so many amazing thing. But if I must choose a trade , I want Ginobili and Parker.
27, 8, 7 in the playoffs is on the way to being washed up. the intelligence on this board can be beautiful at times.
Unless we getting something great back, I will be extremely disappointed, but that won't stop me from being a Rockets fan.
I think TMac is too lazy and too injury-prone to rely on, especially for $20,000,000. At the same time, to trade him, you'd really, really, really better get value, and there are only a few teams out there on the verge of a championship (or need to sell tickets) that have the assets or wherewithal to acquire him.
I'd bad sad just because he's been a member of the Rockets for a while now and I've gotten used to him. Didn't like him when he first arrived, however despite his idiotic mouth, he grew on me. Too bad he's so brittle. Plus, we all know there's like at least an 80% chance that we won't get someone of equal value back, so that would suck. Oh and I'd probably question Morey's wizardry powers.
I was once a huge fan of TMac, but I think now would be a good time to make a move. TMac lacks the "something" to take the Rockets forward. He is an amazingly skilled player, or was once. He has significantly declined, is one tweek of his back away from retirement, and, frankly, doesn't really seem to care that much anymore. I can't say that I blame him, he has been in the league a long time and appears "burned out." I would want two "impact players" and a first round draft choice.
#1 pick is the only thing in equal return we could get, actually #2, because the #1 always thinks he's good enough and doesn't put in the effort to get better, with a few exceptions. Billups + Hamilton for T-MAC do it morey i beg you!!!!!!! I wouldn't mind, i think we do need to rebuild, seeing the lottery for 3 yrs isn't that bad of a price to payyy....
I would start singing, kind of like that Boston commercial... "I re-mem-ber find-ing out a-bout you..."
