He is missing some major cartilage in his knee and if he gets microfaracture surgery his career is most likely over.

If this season's games are any indication, the Rockets season is NOT over if McGrady is OFS.

Whether he lacks heart or not doesn't change the fact that McGrady is most likely washed up, is unquestionably not the best player on this team, and is no longer fit to lead this team anywhere.

FK that he was the one who refused to work on his conditioning, if anything we don't know if his recent play caused it.

Many Rocket fans said, if he is truly hurt, sit till he is ready. He rushed it, he didn't work out in the off-season.

T-mac has nobody to blame but himself and yes Rockets doctors are fking jokes if this is true. However 3 doctors all said the same thing, so I assume this must be a recent issue.

Management should have forced him to sit earlier for a longer period of time(like a month), thus avoiding any comments about his heart and also ensuring(perhaps) that he would be stronger and healthier for the later part of the season when we really need him.

If they failed to discover this earlier that's truly pathetic on their part, yet not surprising at all.

I don't even care where the blame lies, but it definitely isn't surprising to me.

Wow i feel so bad for this man. Blessed with so much talent, don't let it be over like this. I told you with my post earlier. This man worked his ass off with a missing cartilage. Almost still made the reverse. You guys laugh at him like this. Its you haters and citrisizers that messed up him up mentally which cause him to screw up physically. I hope there is another way to fix this problem so that they can add the cartilage and he recieves his hops back to atleast 60% of orlando.

It is really classless to make jokes of a guy ending his career

Lol did you say add cartilege? What are they going to do, crazy glue it on?

If he's out for the season though it's going to be another first round exit unless we get a top 3 seed (which we won't). Time to plan for next season where we'll have a big fat expiring contract, though I can't really think of anybody I'd want that could match T-Mac's contract that we could feasibly get.

I've said it many times on the board this is so eerily similar to Wade's situation last year of trying to play through it and later regretting that decision. The only difference here is that T-Mac is older and might actually need further surgery.

edit: also you guys are dreaming if you actually think we'll be able to claim insurance on T-Mac. Even if surgery takes away every ounce of athleticism he's ever had if he is medically cleared to play we can't claim insurance even though his career might technically be over from a production standpoint.

that much is likely....what do you expect him to do with missing cartilage? If anything he won't come back to the NBA ever again

Tmac came back early to try and help the rockets with their tough schedule in the begining of the season. If he wouldn't have do that, then many many people would have cried and pms about it. Instead, he chose to help out and is still currently bothered by it. It isnt official that he has to shut it down. He has my support and always will.

I hope they use darth vader as an example and they add force to his knee and he can have a vertical of 60 inches and they win 10 championships in a row
