Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming playing together again It wasn't real cool seeing Yao on the sideline the other night as USA crushed China, but he is expected to be ready for training camp following foot surgery. Tracy didn't require offseason surgery, but his bag of bones needed an extended rest and I sincerely hope he's been living it up this summer. Come this fall, it's time for T-Mac and Yao to get healthy, stay healthy, and travel with each other to Vegas as starters for the Western Conference All-Star team.</div> :beerchug:
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>3. The triumphant return of Kevin Garnett It tore my heart out to see KG rested for the last two weeks of the 05-06 season. I didn't agree with the way that was handled and I never will, but life goes on, and explosive guards like Foye and Mike James are added in the offseason, restoring confidence and competitiveness to a once proud franchise. (I still can't believe my beloved Wolves have missed the playoffs two years running.) With Foye and James giving the Wolves a desperately needed shot in the arm, you're going to see a lot more of KG howling at the moon after and-ones and emphatically telling the Target Center faithful "this is my house". When KG believes, he morphs from beast to monster.</div> :beerchug:
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>10. The Hawks flying high with a real point guardClose your eyes and imagine Speedy Claxton running the break with Josh Smith on one wing and Marvin Williams on the other. Think of all the dimes Claxton will generate simply by passing the rock to Joe Johnson. If Josh Smith finally puts two halves together, Speedy stays healthy, and Marvin lives up to being the second overall pick, the Hawks could sneak into the playoffs. Yes, I'm serious.</div> :beerchug:
With the addition of speedy the hawks could be a sweeper for the 8th seed it sounds crazy but they could do it
