The Mickey Mantle of basketball. It's really a shame. He just can't stay healthy.

He has too many injuries but he is a good player

hes great and coming through for the rockets.. 16 straight wins.. franchise record

He is too dominant out there for me to give him a four. I want to give him a four because he needs to win something, but he can score forty at will, and that deserves a five.

McGrady is the worst thing that happened to the Rockets. Trade him or trade Yao to any team where he won't have to put up with McGrady's "impose my will but my back hurts" crap.

lol at tmac is the best guy hahahahatmac hasnt even made it outta the first round big man. Lebron has made it outta the first round twice and into the NBA finals once lol.Think before u say lebron aint nothing dumbass.

Lazy Eye

McGrady was a 5 a couple years ago (and a TOP 5), but he seems to not want it enough to keep it. Lately, he lacks heart in what he does...the key element. Still a great player, and I hope to see him step it up next year.

tmac is a f'n monster hes injured as hell and still averaging 25 a game. how dare anyone say lebron is better then him tmac did his thing for years alone and made the playoffs lebron couldnt do that and now he got help and he makes the playoffs and u have to consider tmac for mvp the rockets are like 0-13 or 14 without him cmon thats ridiculous the man changes the pace of every game hes in including the recent all star game in which he was robbed for mvp by punk ass lebron tmac had 36 goddamn points and he was the hometown hero and u cudnt give him f'n mvp wat wrong wit ppl nowadays anyway TRACY McGRADY IS THE MAN

hay baller#3 you think lebron is better than t-mac are you crazy t-mac only scores 25.5 ppg because he missed the first 8 seasons games did you watch the rockets play the cavaliers t-mac shoved the ball down lebron throat with the alley by alston.has lebron been a 6 time nba all star i don't think so has lebron ever dunked it on somebody and aciddently sat on their shoulder Mcgrady has lebron sucks comparing to t-mac mcgrady is one of the best players in nba so shut up baller#3 cause lebron an't nothing

Heres something i dont get. How can everybody say he does nothing for a team and sux ballz, and say he only cares about himself and cant get his team to win. lets look at the stats. As of oday 12/17/05 the Rockets are 0-8 without T-mac, but are freakin 9-4 with him. How is he not helping? Explain to me that. T-Mac is amazing, end of discussion. 13 IN 30 IS IMPOSSIBLE.

The talent to be an all-time great is there- but he can't be a 5 star player until he wins a game that actually matters. . .

Does he absolutely need to win a championship to be, in the elite 50 of all time? I believe he's more talented than any guard or forward, second only to Kevin Garnett, but does this mean he's not that great why? Why can't he get the recognition he deserve's just on talent and skill only, they said he doesn't play any defense, but he went and shut down Dirk Nowitzki, they try to play Kobe but he destroys him aswell, scores at will, drains 40 ft. jumpers like anyone I've ever seen play, and gets to the cup unchallenged by anyone just ask 7'7" Shawn Bradley when he posterized him in the playoffs, in regards to talent this man is a GOD and deserves to be right up there with the best any questions email me @ David02122@yahoo.com

Ok bballer #3 Kg has won playoffs games but when does the final games come in and dont worry bout what happen in the past what T-mac doin now he is scoring most of the pionts on rocket and Lebron James is good now dont get me wrong now but he is not as good as T-mac. T-Mac has scorded 62 points in his career highand he still scoring at lease 25 to 40 points per game home boy, now has Lebron James scored 62 point yet I DONT THINK SO !!!!! and stop hanging on his balls

T-mac has a label that many high school superstar athletes get. Potential. Potential can be a good thing, ask Kobe, he will tell you. Kobe did something with his potential, a little something winning multiple nba championships. Something T mac has yet to proove he can do. Will he ever? well, i think if he surrounds himself with a few veterans who have been to the promise land at one time so maybe they can get T macs mind on winning a championship rather than how many points he can score in a game. But for now, Tracy McGrady will keep the label he has, and keep that label for a while.

Not much of a team player.

McGrady has amazing potential, but like Vince Carter, I have yet to see him doing anything for the teams he has been playing on. McGrady will become a great player when he takes his team on a run through the playoffs, but until then he is just a great talent who has failed to get results for his franchise.

baller#5. T-Mac has a brain and one bigger than yours because of your comments. If he's dumb because he didn't go to college, then LeBron, KG, Kobe, and Amare Stoudamire are also dumb. bballer#3. T-Mac didn't get those numbers that Lebron did because T-Mac didn't get to start. In his second year, T-MAc started 2 games and played in only 49. Here's a list of other's on the team that year: V. Carter(rookie of the year in 98-99). Doug Christie Kevin Willis Charles Oakley Dee Brown Brown, Carter, and Christie were all guards and so is T-Mac. Now, do you see why he didn't put up those numbers?

t-mac suks!!HEY allstardude1!!Lebron James is averaging over 25ppg in ONLY HIS SECOND YEAR!!!And Lebron James does not complain about his attitude problems!!!When T-mac was age 20, he was averaging 9 ppg verses 25 ppg for Lebron Jmes.Yeah look at Kevin Garnnet!!!He has won numerous playoff games and has contended in the Western conference which is obviosly stronger than the East and has been since 2000. Kg has actually won playoff series and has gone as far as the conference championship!!1Has T-mac???I didn't think so!!!If kg is so dumb, how come people call him the best player in the NBA??? You need a brain to pass the ball to YOUR own teammate!!You need a brain to know which basket to score in!!AND IF YOU REALLY HEAD A BRAIN, YOU WOULDNT CARE BOUT MONEY BECAUSE THATS JUST PLAIN BULLCRAP!!!Now Kobe!!Look at KObe Bryant!!!He's won numerous NBA championships!!!HAS T-MAC ever even won a playoff series???NO!!!AND IF UR GONNA SAY LEBRON HASNT EITHER, ITTL BE BEFORE HE TURNS 23!!Lebron will either win one this year or definately next year!!! Kobe is a smart person as well!!I know that Kobe won 6 NBa championships becasue he watched tapes of himself in games and improved on his weaknessess!!!Is T-mac SMART enough to do the same???NO!!T-MAC is too BUSY WORRYING ABOUT HIS POPULARTY AND HIS SALRY!!!OH AND FINALLY Amare Stoudamire!!!fIRST OF ALL WHY IS HE RATED HIGHER THAN T-mac???Maybe cause this kid has amazing POTENTIAL!!OH AND DONT GET ME WRONG ON THIS!!!T-MAC HAS POTENTIAL BUT DOS NOT USE IT IN THE RIGHT WAY!!!AMARE's sqaud is the best team in the NBA RIGHT NOW!!!Amare is a very nice person and always smiles in all his pictures!!!T-MAC SMILED WHEN HE ARRIVED IN HOUSTEN CAUSE HE KNEW HE WOULD EARN MORE MONEY!!!SO YES ENOUGH HAS BEEN SAID!!!T-MAC SUCK!!AND ONE LAST THING!!!THAT CAROLINA BOY WAS RIGHT!!!T-MAC HAS THAT i don't have a care in the world. T-mac is dumb enough to think he is the next MJ by giving his own gay look!!he is a HUGE PHONY!!!!

mcgrady is a awesome ball player not even close to as good as jordan but hes getting there. when gradys under pressure there is no telling what he can do most ppl give up but grady doesnt he scored 13points in 30 sec against one of the best teams(spurs) tell me one person that did that prove me wrong. grady is riseing and there is nothing he cant do. hes positively one of the next greats.

Here is an actual comment made ny t-mac from an interview after a game!!i just played my game,i do all the work but my team cant seem to win. Yeah maybe cause u suck!!!Maybe if u went to college u could DEVELOP an actual functioning brain!!!Maybe then you'll LEARN wat real work really is!!!T_MAC!!U SUCK!!!!!

He is a great star even though his all star team did not win. The Rockets will not win the championship because he is not playing.

Pure Talent.

Tracy is the guard in the league, all the crap about him is rubbish. He should be this years MVP at Houston if all goes to plan.

Blessed with talent. He has the potential to be the top shooting guard in the NBA. With that said he has MANY FAULTS. He has shown he is not a team player. He has NO loyalty. All he cares about is himself and his bank account. He has NO class. This guy is probably one of the most hated players. He should have attended college to learn some ethics and educate himself so he doesn't say something dumb every time he opens his trap. I can't till things go sour in Houston.

t-mac. lets see you actually help a team for once.

Always trys to put that I don't have a care in the world face on....... Like the Jordan look except I'm not buying it when he does it. You're not relaxed and cool............you are a phony, and this Carolina boy sees it!

I dont think Tracy McGrady can do much

good game, poor sportsmanship

We all know about his offense but I think his defense still needs some refining. Then he would be even more dominant. Hope he gets out of Orlando soon.

Mcgrady is a very good player, but he shoots way too much! If he would learn to be a better team player and share the ball more he could be the best!

He's a great offensive player. He puts up a lot of points on a terrible team, and can dunk, but not so much on the defensive end.

This guy is a phenom. I have to say he's no MJ or Larry Bird, but the dude knows what to do on the court and he knows how to get things done. He's amazing.

T mac is alright but maybe a little over rated. but like i said hes alright

NBA superstar tracy mcgrady has improvedso much more with each season- so much so that the loss of hill has not impacted as greatly as had been expected. T-mac today is perhaps thr single most explosive weapon in the game. the legue's reigning scoring champ, mcgrady's added to his offensive arsenal each year and has now become, aruably, the legue's toughest defensive assignment. T-mac averaged a hefty 32.1 ppg while tuning in good all-around numbers. whethern hitting the rainbow or swooping in for a slam, T-mac has simply been a imposing offensive force some oponents has managed to slow him down a bit from time to time, but none have stopped him altogether. if he isn't scoring, McGrady will find a other ways to help his team. he is a cerfitable NBA superstar...

T mac has been one of the greatest offensive players lately (he even already surpassed his cousin on that category), the only thing that could stop him is only himself. it's just too bad to see 2004 season, he's just a victim of the salary cap in MAGIC for not being able to sign a good partner for him, THANKS TO GRANT HILL

62! bad as hell....

Tracey McGrady is the points leader this year in the NBA. He is one of the best all around players in the NBA. He can play 4 positions on the floor and is an excellent defender. He is the leader of the team and he has made his team better also.

One of the top five players in the league right now. His offensive game is huge, and it's hard to believe that he may become better. I actually might take him on my team over Kobe-maybe. How his game evolves over the next season will be interesting to see.

No doubt that hes the best in the NBA. Nothing away from Kobe, but Kobe has Shaq. Yes, Tracy is getting a team built around him now, but I want to see Kobe and Tray switch shoes. They play totally different. Kobe makes the better plays, but Tracy is more solid.

Awesome player and a great person. There isn't anything this guy can't do, well, except maybe play solid D, but he's working on it. If Grant Hill wasn't made of glass, who knows how good the Magic would be. Actually, speaking of Hill, do you think McGrady's wishing he had Ben Wallace guarding the paint and grabing every rebound for him. That trade isn't looking to good for Orlando nowadays.

It's 2003, Grant isn't back yet. The team is not very deep, yet still in the 1st round of the playoffs. He is great.

He is very good. I like his shoes too.

"It's nice to finally make it to the second round." You spoke too soon captain cocky. Can be a scoring machine but didn't do too well when Pistons coach decided to put Tayshaun Prince in his face. McGrady needs to spend less time talking garbage that he can't live up to.

Tracy McGrady is a very exciting player and once Drew Gooden learns the NBA concept the Magic will be a force to be reckoned with.

T-Mac has shown amazing ability in the games that I've seen him play as of lately, but quite the mouse in his first couple of years. He often requires incentive to play, showing the Magic franchise that they should more often trade away his friends on the team. He's a good player and he has the potential to be great, but he is often lured by candy and does not play with the pure love of the game that was so often evident in the two MJ s.

he is good all around

He is the future of the Association. Long, lean, and versitile.

one word Fantastic
