    Do any of yall wonder why Tracy McGrady lately has been in a shooting drout? Here I am watching Rockets go against the Knicks and already he has shot only 1-12 from the field. And in the past two games he has only scored 11 and 13.

    I can't understand his style and our offensive style
    T-MAC is very Caprice

    I think that the other party was good in Knicks.

    There's probably several reasons why he's been shooting so terrible but I'll give you a few. First, his back is still fairly tweaked with the back spasms and isn't fully healed yet. Obviously, its probably going to take him another offseason to have it back close to 100% so he's going to have to deal with that for now. Secondly, because of these back spasms, he really doesn't want to injure it further, so he's stuck with shooting contested jumpers just inside the arc. No longer is he taking it to the rim hard, meaning he's getting lower percentage shots. And finally, he's probably going through a shooting slump. Alot of those low percentage shots he usually takes goes in, but now, he's just not feeling it.

    He's either hurting or he's simply in a really bad funk.

    I wouldn't read too much into it.

    McGrady is struggling, but the Rockets are winning. As long as the Rockets keep winning I'll be happy. T-Mac will eventually get his shot back, and the Rockets will be even better.

    He only got 5 pts with only 2:20 left in the game. Very good.

    Umm right now it looks as though we are reling on mcgrady less and less especially since we can keep other teams offences in check with the van gundy defence. Right now i think van gundy should cut down on mcgrady's minutes dramatically and give him rest hoping his body can recouperate. Right now i think keith bogans should be able to step in and give us more offence while mcgrady is on the bench and since yao is in his dominant form i can only say rest mcgrady because we need him more and more come playoff time and right now it looks horrible. Since Alston and Yao Wesley seem to be handling it alright against subpar to low teams we should place him on the bench. Plus i feel keith bogans can step it up while he on the bench therefore feeling more security
