Tracy's Blog: Feeling good, hoping to play soon
Hey all,
I wanted to get you an update on what’s happening over here, because I know it has been a while. First off though, I want to give a shout out to all my teammates and comment on how great they are playing. We have amazing chemistry out there on the court so far and all the guys are playing with a lot of heart and toughness. Everyone is working hard. Brooks, Ariza, Landry, Scola, Lowry,..they are putting up solid numbers. Shane is playing well too. We have some great new guys that are working hard too, figuring out where they fit in with the squad. We all have the same goal, to bring a championship to Houston. The team is off to a great start, and I’m proud of all of them. The first few games of every year are learning experience and it’s very encouraging to see where we are at through 6 games this year.
As for me, I have been practicing, training, and rehabbing hard for my return to the court. I’m in a good place mentally and my body feels ready to get back out there, so now I am just waiting on my doctors to give me the clearance to go ahead to play. I’m going full speed at practice and am not being held out of drills anymore. I’m hoping to get out there as soon as possible, and with everything that my doctors have been telling me, it sounds like that will be sooner rather than later. All your comments and support and encouragement have really helped me fight through this to get to this point where I’m ready to get back out there and play ball, and for that I thank you.
Being in the league for as long as I have, you notice there are some years you have great teams with that potential to go all the way. It’s something you just feel, and working day in and day out together with this group leads me to believe this team can do it. We have tremendous talent out there but more importantly, this team has a lot of heart. I can’t wait to get out there and contribute. This has all the makings of being a great season in Houston, even without having Yao in there.
We are headed to Dallas right now for tomorrow’s game. It’s always a good game when we go up against the Mavs.
Thanks for all your support and I will check back in soon.
Mac
That would be horrible.
Don't make me have to call Chuck Hayes for you.![]()
i think this 18th report from yahoo is bs. morey has said they are going to do the mri first...which actually makes sense. who cares if it's the 18th of nov or 18th of dec. i really don't. in fact, i would actually prefer to watch this team play for awhile before tmac gets back and they start deferring to him like they shouldn't.
i like tmac's talent but he needs to take a backseat to the team....especially this time around.
and the doublespeak and BS from T-Mac begins
McGrady, Rockets send mixed signals on return
By JONATHAN FEIGEN Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle

Tracy McGrady said Monday that he would make his season debut Nov. 18.
But the Rockets said neither they nor McGrady knows when he would go through a full practice, much less a game.
McGrady’s announcement was contrary to comments by Rockets general manager Daryl Morey, who had said earlier Monday that there is no timetable for McGrady to play and that he would not play until he can be checked out in the Rockets’ next full practice, Nov. 23.
In an e-mail to Yahoo Sports, McGrady said he would play Nov. 18 against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Minneapolis.
In his blog later, he disputed Morey’s contention that his participation in practice has been "off and on" but did not target a date for his return.
"I have been practicing, training, and rehabbing hard for my return to the court," McGrady wrote. "I’m in a good place mentally and my body feels ready to get back out there, so now I am just waiting on my doctors to give me the clearance to go ahead to play. I’m going full speed at practice and am not being held out of drills anymore. I’m hoping to get out there as soon as possible, and with everything that my doctors have been telling me, it sounds like that will be sooner rather than later."
But Morey had said earlier Monday that McGrady, 30, has been able only to practice sporadically and would not play until doctors and team officials consider him to be 100 percent.
The Rockets announced Sept. 28 that McGrady would not play prior to an MRI on Nov. 23 and have repeatedly said since that nothing has changed with the timetable, a position Morey reiterated in a statement following McGrady’s blog entry and e-mail to Yahoo.
"While we are encouraged by the fact that Tracy’s rehabilitation has been ahead of schedule we must remain vigilant through the next stages of his recovery," Morey said. "No timetable has been set for his return.
"He will return when team doctors, officials and Tracy all agree it is best."
As with McGrady’s decision to have season-ending microfracture surgery this past season, a week after he said he was "not even considering surgery," his latest announcement surprised the Rockets.
Morey had said the timetable of the MRI could be changed and that McGrady, a 6-8 guard/forward, could return earlier or later than expected.
But Morey said the Rockets had not set the Nov. 18 game, or any other date, as a target for McGrady’s return to the team.
"Obviously, we’ll want the doctor to see him in a full practice, that situation," Morey said. "We’re sort of taking it day-by-day, how the team is looking, how he’s doing and what the doctor is saying.
"I don’t think there is a specific day. We did announce that day because it was our best guess at the time. It could be earlier and it could be later.
"It’s just when the doctors and everyone agrees he is 100 percent. He has been practicing off and on with the team.
"Once the doctors say he is OK and is 100 percent and we feel he is 100 percent, he could return."
Typical T-Mac. Still doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut.

Then after one game, he will sit again for the rest of the season.
He keeps this up, and he might be traded before he comes back
Such turmoil for a team that no longer has Artest.
Oh well, saylarvee.
lol, turmoil led Ariza to average 20.8 PPG over first 6 games, turmoil led Hayes to be an elite post defender, if that's the case, then I love turmoil
Uh, 5-21 on the big stage.
tee, hee.
I hope TMAC continues to where he eats.
Culburn is nothing more than a dirty old man, I bet you're a school zone crossing guard. ing pervert...![]()
No, he works at Toys-R-Us, while bringing home toys for the schoolchildren
When isn't he to start the year on any team? He was a "Yao Ming soldier" the first few months here and did play pretty good defense. Too bad their called honeymoon's for a reason. You'll get the picture soon enough and boy I can't wait to see that day.
Perhaps, but, Ariza crapped the bed at 5-21 and we took another piece of your ass in the state of Texas.
ha, ha.
he also has targeted 12/02 as his first time on the IR for the season.
Or, vice versa: bringing home schoolchildren for toys.
tee, hee.
why is there a comma in between ha ha?
It's distinctive that way.
It's just a game, I have a life outside of this forum and it ain't got nothing to do with ing little autistic kids..."tee hee"
