Yes, it's the real T-Mac's twitter account.

As a Laker fan, I'd welcome it with open arms.

That would be great. Then the Lakers would bow out in the first round as long as he was on the team.

he's a good addition to most contenders, he proved that last year with his play on detroit (off court is another matter). He's a great back up sg/pg type. He's just not "that" guy anymore.

At this point, I doubt it.

He would suck just like he did in Detroit.

Just what the Lakers need. Another subpar 3 point shooter to put on the court so that defenses can pack the paint and easily defend their big guys. Lakers need shooters, desperately.

Hard to be worse than Brown. He seriously contributed almost nothing.

I'm guessing in the Triangle, he'll play PG. He's done it before, and would give the Lakers some SERIOUS size at all 5 positions.

Second that.
The Lakers need young athletic players and good shooters from beyond the arc

TMac did this last season, he'd get tweets from his fans about they thought he should go and he'd RT it.

Finally the bench wont be afraid to shoot.

I can understand LO, Bynum and Gasol not shooting as much w/ Kobe, but the real problem with the Lakers is that these guys were passive when Kobe was on the bench and they had Brown, Blake and Barnes shooting as the alpha.

It was really strange.
Lakers are 22-3 in OT last 6 seasons:Kobe best OT closer!

He's talking about other teams also. I'll always be a fan of this guy.

McGrady has been one of my favorite players of the 00's. I really want him to be healthy and contribute on a team that can win it all. Lakers & Chicago would be the 2 places I want him to play.
