Are the Rockets the most screwed up team in basketball or destined to win the championship?
Huh?
Yeah, you heard me, are they screwed up or going to be winners? Or maybe is it winners or whiners?
And now we get the news that T-Mac is hurt again, both the shoulder and the knee.
“My knee is about 75, 80 percent right now,” McGrady, 29, said. “It took longer than expected. I was expecting to recover 100 percent in four months, but e_SLps the doctor told me it would be six months or even more. My shoulder had, after surgery, kept bothering me. I had another MRI and discovered I have arthritis in there, so I have to have surgery again on my shoulder. That’s something I have to deal with again this season, but my knee should be ready by opening night (Oct. 29).”
NBA Tracy McGrady factoid – What did T-Mac lead the team in last year? Assists. Surprised? So was your intrepid author.
So Tracy McGrady is going to play with nagging injuries all year and Yao Ming has missed tons of games (over 80) in the last 3 years and then you add Ron Artest to the mix?
So what does Tracy think of Ron Artest?
McGrady said after last season that the Rockets needed one more player to get over the hump. Hello, Ron Artest, whom McGrady described Monday as a godsend and a beast.
“I’ve been waiting for this for a while,” McGrady said. “I know I get criticized a lot for not leading my team out of the playoffs, but it’s hard. When you don’t have those pieces you need to elevate you to the next level, it’s hard. I don’t care how good a player is; it’s really hard.
“If you don’t have that, it’s tough. Now, I have that. We’ll see what happens.”
This team should be loads of fun as they either self destruct or bring destruction on the other teams.
