he choked when it mattered in second half like ususally
The guy has ZERO luck in terms of teammates. Absolutely zero. He played his heart out tonight and for the whole series but his team SUCKED. By far the least talented team in the playoffs this year. This loss is not on him at all. His teammates just completely dissapeared on him tonight.
I just wish he'd learn how to shoot a goddamn free throw...

That scolla (sp?) guy has been the one carrying Houston in this game..
I dont feel the least sadness for Tracy..
The cavs aren't any better and James has made that team better for himself. T-MAC is an average player that will most likely never get out of round 1 of the playoffs.
Only Scola and TMac have had more than 2 points of the guys playing...and it was the 4th quarter.
Gotta love MeMac getting beat again in the 1st round.....he has been cursed ever since that smack talk when up 3-1 on the Pistons and then losing....
Another first round exit for TMac..the curse continues...
Rockets role players are more talented than Spurs role players
PLEASE?!?
They are, but the Rockets don't have a big 3 like we do.
Also, if Yao was healthy then the Rockets would have slaughtered Utah.
got to love those points mcgrady scored in the 3 quarter
that is right a big fat 0
Foul trouble, maybe.
7
and rockets have 7 straight first round exits
He's been to the playoffs seven times. So, seven.
Make the comparission.
Well, he's good enough to score 13 points in 35 seconds, isn't he? Didn't his team also win 22 straight?
The Rockets deserve every loss they get. Fortunately this series hasn't been handed to them like much of the regular season was.
I also feel bad for him. This loss isn't on him and people should stop criticizing the best player on the team when things go bad. Rockets' roster without Yao is what it is... not very good. There isn't anything anyone can do with that as we know from Kobe the last few years.
Did you watch the game? The Jazz were doubling hard on McGrady after his 28 point outburst in the first half. They were sending help and leaving Brooks/Bobby Jackson wide open and the 2 missed wide open 3 after 3 in the 3rd Quarter.
If you blame a guy who had 40,10, and 5 for a playoff loss because in one of the 4th quarters he had 0 points you just dont understand the game of basketball.
The Rockets lost this series because of injuries to Yao Ming, Rafer Alston, and a very good series by Deron Williams. McGrady is the sole reason this series went 6 instead of 4.
I understand some want to hate on a guy because they simply hate him but you just make yourself look like a moron criticizing a guy on a nigh with 40, 10, and 5 when the rest of the team around him did absolutely nothing despite being afforded wide open shot after wide open shot.
I wouldn't go that far. They just maybe are collectively younger.
I wouldn't mind having Battier and Landry, but the rest aren't that much better talent wise or smarts-wise.
We were toast after Alston went down with an ankle sprain. I told the guys with me that we were done. Mail the season in cause it's over. The fat lady is singing. And that was the 2nd Qtr.
You'd think after a 22-game winning streak, he'd finally make out of round 1.
Damn, imagine if he ended his NBA career without ever making it out of round 1. He'd be so depressed![]()
at least his rockets team showed more heat than that nuggets team that got swept
Well Nuggets don't play defense. They are number 2, behind Warriors, in giving up the most points (allowing an average of 107 points each game). It's almost as if they just stand there and watch their opponents score. It's not that hard to out-do the Nuggets in the playoffs.
Didn't one year he say something like "it feels good to finally make it out of the first round" before his team had closed the series and ended up blowing it?
