watch him pull an IVERSON here saying "i'm superstar, you don't see superstar coming off the bench"; then decided to not play at all

It seems from the interview that he volunteers to come off bench, whereas Adelman seems to have different idea.

Yeah he seemed pretty adamant about that.

I think he is just using this whole saga as an insurance in case he plays badly.

Tmac - bad game on Sat (if)
Reporter: "So Tracy, how do you explain your seemingly lackadaisical display tonight? Was it your knee?"

Tmac: "Oh. yea. My knee was hampering me all night. I should have conditioned myself more i guess. Perhaps I should been on the sidelines... yea. was not in the 75% range but the 25%. Should have sat it out. Hopefully my teammates can step up in the next game. Got to listen to the doctors."

Tmac - good game on Sat (if)
Reporter: "Wow, Tracy. It was one hell of a performance. 14 points in 35 seconds? It had to be the Spurs eh? Looks like you were never injured from the beginning."

Tmac: Yea. I felt really good tonight. It's time to talk play-offs. Remember, it's on me. I'm not going to let my knee take this team down."

If Mcgrady thinks he can't perform in his current condition he won't play...

I don't know why certain people won't/can't rest without trashing Mcgrady. Jesus.

Eh... He leaves himself open for the attacks. That's how it goes. When you make comments about not being mentally ready to play you're going to get blasted, and probably should.

It's nothing new, and it means nothing. All that matters is what he does when he comes back, if he ever really does come back. Who cares what people say about him(and who cares what he has to say either).

because he's an easy target
one of the biggest star
10 years in the league and no success in the playoff

Finally , he played and came off the bench.

Anyone know that when will he come from the starting line-up ?

Or will he continue to come off the bench .. ?
