Adios Tracy.
Damn was hoping he'd get another go. Sorry you didn't get that ring Mac.
Farewell, T-Mac. You were, for a brief period, one of the greats.
http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/96...-overseas-next"When we were in the Finals and Manu (Ginobili) was struggling, I felt I could contribute, absolutely," McGrady said.
T-Mac's ring was getting out of the first round and getting a victory in the finals. The ol' sport has had a fine career.
Lol f u tmac
He was right about not playing D on Lebron when he started making his jumpers.
If you don't think you can contribute, then you shouldn't suit up. And anyone who thinks he shouldn't have said that is an idiot. "Yeah, I'm not confident in my own abilities and my coach shouldn't play me". I'm sure that's what people want to hear. He's wrong either way in the eyes of some.
McGrady would not have been a difference maker against a team like the Heat. They were too fast for an old player with bad knees. I liked having McGrady on the team and wish him the best in China if that is what he decides to do. I would not be surprised to see him make one last comeback if the right opportunity arises.
McGrady wasn't a difference maker in garbage time against C team. How do you think he's going to do against the A-team? Manu truly was bad by his standards, but I'd take Manu at this point in their careers. Obviously, Tracey would sign an NBA contract if he could get it. Because he couldn't, he's retiring. Ginoboli could have had multiple contract offers if he had refused the Spurs.
That said, I don't mean to entirely bag on McGrady. He was a great player pre-injury/microfacture surgury, but now he is a s of himself. Unfortunate that the injury has impacted him the way it has, but in all reality, if he had any game left, he would never have gone to S.A.
Will always have love for Tmac, he was a professional his entire career. Like everyone else, I always kept watching garbage time just in hopes of seeing him score, but unfortunately it never happened. Oh well, best of luck to him with his future endeavors.
On a seperate note, the fact that he averaged somewhere near 25,5,5 in China but couldn't even score in garbage time in the NBA shows just how superior the talent is here.
McGrady sucked as a Spur, tbh.
I'm sure he enjoyed the journey.
Pop would have really been crucified if he had put in bench players at crunch time. It was really close....
+1... & it's not like he went to Twitter and started ing about it either.
Guy seems humble to me. Wishes he could have helped. At least he hates Game Six unlike Manu who says, "Oh well."
I flew TMac years ago when he was still a star. A decent, polite, kind man.
i think tmac could have help for a few times not for long stretches. but he didnt show anything when he did play. So thanks and good luck.
He facilitated as was his role. I think he had some juice left. He was just fitting in. Good guy. Good player. Sorry Manu cost him a ring...
Wish Tmac would be given a fair chance in SA in meaningful minutes.
Tmac curse finally kicked in 28 secs to the championship
Great career T-Mac. Wish you the best. Now go win a le in China and get a statue!
Game 6 probably drove TMac to retirement. Seriously, I agree with him that he could have helped in games 6-7. Our ball movement was seriously lacking for games 6-7 and he could certainly have helped to move the ball.
