    I dont think he is forgotten.

    Whenever talks of playoff failures come up, his is one of the first names that gets mentioned.

    I'm seriously racking my brain, besides name recognition, what makes McGrady a hall of famer? Besides the allstar games and the scoring titles, this dude is Micheal Redd

    He left a bad taste in my mouth and it seems like he never really did his best on defense, just like Harden. That being said: special talent, carried us for a while and was a good player with the Rockets. He's on the same level as Howard in terms of how I perceive them: thank you for what you did, you are probably not a bad person in real life, but please don't act like you are all good, did everything you could for the team and were that special during your tenure with the Rockets.

    Probably the most depressing thing I've ever seen, and I've seen OLDBOY

    Elsewhere as well.

    Like I said, he is synonymous with playoff failure.

    My stance on Tracy has always been, I don't hold a grudge against him & I appreciate the good memories he gave us. I agree with the person that compared him to Dwight.

    That being said, he deserves all the criticism he gets on this board. I have no problem with it at all, he made his bed here.

    Michael Redd didn't make multiple All-NBA 1st and 2nd teams.

    Man he was silky smooth. Loved how big and long he was, just a total mismatch for most defenders. Nothing he couldn't do on the court, had all the moves. He's the guy who's game I'd most like to emulate.

    Yup, Michael Redd was cool but did not have that much potential.

    Mac could have learned Harden drawing foul's abilities. Or Kobe's for that matter.

    5 or 6 ppg more. And making FTs.

    Yes this thread is OBVIOUS TROLL Bait FAKE appreciation. OP doesnt give a darn about anything

    Me overtalking this .... Its gotten confusing what team support IS ANYMORE. We got fans telling other fans theyre NOT SUPPOSED to be supporting actual Rockets players and organization. Got people saying some Rockets accomplishments DONT matter, and making selective standards for what "should" matter.

    Fandom is whatever fits individual positions now basically, even if you have to dump on your own. Maybe it is more actual sophistication instead of blind support. But to me it just seems a bunch of "KILLJOY" to it too.

    Honestly following basketball and even Rockets has become AGGRAVATING. Its because OF INSUFFERABLE blowhard twats who have to give their stupid false "Voice of Reason" psuedo-enlightened opinions on thing, who like the sound of their own "voice" over the actual entertainment of the product. Which leads to useless reaction threads like THIS thats NOT EVEN ABOUT the player and team itself.

    Might not be a good idea to look for support from the guy that just set this record...



    ...or maybe it is? This is Tmac level of Fail.
