    Tracy McGrady is said to have quietly let it be known he's no longer happy in Houston. -- Chicago Tribune

    <u>Longer Absence? ...</u>

    # Though listed as "day-to-day" and out tonight against the Warriors, Rockets guard Tracy McGrady said his time away to rehabilitate a sore left knee likely will be measured in weeks rather than days.

    "I'm the same," McGrady said. "They told me three weeks. I don't have a timetable. I can't do anything about it. It's not tendinitis. It's a deep bone bruise. I'm just doing therapy every day. I lost the strength in my leg. I'll see how I feel toward the end of the week, but Boston, doubtful, Orlando, doubtful." -- Houston Chronicle</div>

    Here was a proposed trade from the article:

    Hinrich + Nocioni for McGrady

    Houston, with Luis Scola coming on, won its first back-to-back set and had at least five players in double figures for the second straight game, both without Tracy McGrady. It's giving the team more reason to move McGrady, who is said to have quietly let it be known he's no longer happy in Houston. With the Rockets still in need of a point guard, you could see them working out a package that includes Hinrich and Andres Nocioni.

    Nocioni would team up with his Argentinian buddy Luis Scola and give the Rockets more toughness. Hinrich is having a slow start, but he's been turning it around lately. He's an upgrade and a viable longterm solution, plus he's one of the better guards at defending Nash, Deron etc.

    I'm down for that. With no Carter, he can take over.

    Lol, Kobe for McGrady. Not really a trade that will ever happen. I say, McGrady, Alston, Brooks, Hayes and 1st round pick for Kobe and Odom.

    pretty fair deal but kobe says he's happy as a Laker again.. so. I guess we need to trade him for Vince Carter since i think the nets should split up because they aren't getting the job done with all that talent

    Trading Vince for T-Mac would be a downgrade for the Nets. I like T-Mac but Vince is the better player.

    I agree, I'd love to see it happen. You think Kidd could elevate Yao into an MVP candidate?

    I would want to leave to if I was feeding teamates beautiful passes right at the rim.....
    But the GM surrounded me with WNBA layup artist that get embarrased everytime they challenge somebody at the rim.....


    I would hate to see TMac go........Is he really the problem


    TMac for Ben Gordon and Ben Wallace

    This is the third city he's been unhappy in, and you have to wonder if there is any possible situation he could be put in that will make him happy.

    I remember mentioning that Mcgrady would give up on Houston if things weren't heading the right way. This was back on JBB...roughly a year ago, and of course I was told that I had nothing to back it up with.

    Yao already is a MVP candidate. Lay off the crack. [​IMG]

    As for the article, I think it's a load of crap from some Chicago writer based off speculation. You think the Houston Chronicle won't report this in advance?
