[Yahoo] Rockets don't want McGrady back, continue to try to trade him

Why are we so against playing Mcgrady. This team is handling this situation horribly. You aren't going to get anything for him so let the man finish out his year and work hard to get a contract next year.

 

I doubt teams don't want him and his expiring contract )that could be partially paid by insurance). The problem is putting together a package that works from a talent/personnel standpoint as well as making sure the numbers work.

Playing him won't do much for his value one way or another. Teams looking to deal for him are doing it for the money and not to rent a player who may or may not still be able to contribute.

 

if we take on a longer term contract for him that will be just dumb. That would be Morey's first bad move.

 

Don't see what's wrong with letting him get like 10 min a game for a few games... especially in situations such as the Thunder game where cook / taylor are in. Tmac without any knees is at least as good as taylor...

 

A longer term contract right before 2010 free agency? I dont believe it. Keep it moving

 

Les needs to pull a bud at this point and force them to play him. Look at what happened when vy played.

 

It depends on what longer term contract. If we can get a disgruntled superstar on a bad team or some young solid starters/role players that matches Tmac's salary, then you do it cause you could solidify the future of the Rockets for the next decade or so.

 

I'm guessing it's not for Bosh

 

wow this is getting ugly

why is this team handling the situation like this

give the man a chance this is horrible

 

no kidding... that has shades of the pippen trade to portland

kill me now.

 

Its starting to look like the Rockets are done w/ Tracy.

But he won't get you any talent unless people see him play.

 

I am sure you know how to handle the situation better then they do


The guy quit on the team last year and took countless games off throughout his career because of "injuries"

The players, staff , coaches etc... ALL saw this. He has become the running joke for the organization for at leat the past year if not longer.


SEE THE LIGHT people.

 

While I would be wary of a multi-year deal, this idea that we can't possible do one because of this summer's free agency is just silly.

Who do you think we are getting this offseason????

If we could get someone good (Monta ellis for example) through a trade, why wouldn't we do it?

Morey isn't stupid. Any trade he makes is going to get us a better player than he thinks we can get this summer.

 

Has Wojnarowski been wrong in any of his reporting regarding the Rockets?

He seems to be the most credible news source for our team.

 

I really don't give a **** anymore. They are handling this situation horribly. Do something with him because the man wants to play, if he's not going to be able to do that here... ship him some where else and let us all get on with our lives.

I'm so tired of this.

 

whoa....MOREY

WHAT R U DOING???????!!!

LET THE MAN PLAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Get him off the team.

Not because I don't like him, but because I would like to move on one way or another.

 

Anybody who thinks we'll settle for a Pippen for bunch of middle of the pack Portland role players type of trade doesn't know Morey very well or doesn't give him enough credit. Morey will get value if he does trade Tmac.
