    Yeah it came as a surprise to me, he could have given it 2 more years max. The Lakers would have gladly signed him. But hell, he has a couple of rings so there is nothing to worry about.

    horace grant was basically kicked off the magic for fighting with t-mac and doc rivers. the lakers didn't want him on the team because he brings bad team chemistry around. i'm pretty sure his career is over.

    mitch 'rock' richmond retired after winning his ring with the lakers.

    i don't think ho fought with tmac, i think doc rivers had enough of him, since he didn't try hard.

    your joking right? tmac isn't an elite defender, but he's not a bad defender. he's above average, nothing too special, but having to carry his team on offense really has made him worse defensively. the elite sg/sf defenders(kobe, artest), neither of them are the #1 scoring option, so they can focus more on defense than tmac can.
