    Before the GSW vs. HOU game:

    Ric Bucher tweets: TMac worked out before the game. Said one Warrior watching with me: "He's still limping. Even I can see that."

    Temper your expectations for McGrady's comeback.

    Expectations are always tempered with McGrady, but I'll also note that Bucher is a notorious McGrady hater.

    wasn't KG limping as well at the start of training camp? Maybe it has to do with the training, perhaps they're testing the leg and they are sore at the end of the workout or something..

    What? That sucks, I thought in those running videos, he looked to be running without a limp?

    I'm confused now...

    The portland announcers said he looked horrible in the warm up yesterday. I think these outsiders are obviously more objective than the rockets staff. Very discouraging stuff.

    Don't worry about it. He could be limping because a superfreak groupie turned him out, last night.

    Just a good way for the NBA to keep the negative news flowing about the Rockets. Bad news is all the NBA wants to report about the Rockets. Even if Tmac was or was not limping, he would report the same news. :mad: :mad:

    bucher has to include "a warrior" to tweet that.

    he hasn't limped all his rehab, and first time bucher sees him, tracy is limping.

    No he wouldn't. T-Mac is hurt. And in the end not even an 85% healthy T-Mac is gonna do much unless we get a 7 footer on board.

    nothing more objective than that. unless he has had a setback from the past updates, and it could be possible, there should be some news going around.

    the portland announcers said tracy was just out of shape from sprinting up an down the court.

    What was all this talk about tracy declaring he was ready to go when training camp started? Now he's limping.

    He has a long way to limp 'til he is past the trade deadline if that's the case.

    Does it count as another one of those times where he didn't follow through a statement?

    That and just in case the Rockets even think about leaving him in Oakland and trading him for Ellis and Jackson
