    Just for laughs, is it just a coincidence that since T-Mac has started playing, two of our best bench players have gotten injured?

    Tmac plays in Florida, and Grant Hill almost never plays the entire time he's there. Now he's like a spring chicken, running the floor with the best of them in Phoenix.

    Tmac goes to the rockets--and houston becomes injury city for the past 4 years.

    Laugh. Cry. Discuss.

    Wouldn't it be horrible if T-Mac was next?

    There must be an exception to the rule in order for the rule to be valid.

    Before T-Mac showed up, Yao played nearly every game.

    You're on to something

    We'll find out by next year I suppose. If we still accrue significant injuries after he's gone...

    Wasn't Tracy the sole reason they brought back the term "Choke City" to Houston? :(

    If him leaving means Yao goes back to playing every game, then you'd have to view it as a huge plus. :)

    That said, T-Mac leaving Toronto didn't seem to positively affect Vince's health.

    What? I hope you are joking that had to do with the Oilers and then the Rockets blowing two 4th quarter leads at home to the Suns.....

    And, it was a precursor to CLUTCH CITY !

    Landry got hurt because of Dirk's elbow, very sad that someone wants to blame injuries on T-Mac. :(

    Vince and McGrady are cousins. They are both cursed. It's a family thing.

    Don't forget, before coming to Houston, Artest was never injured (physically that is). After coming to Houston, ankle injury :confused:

    t-mac has RIGHTS.

    by this point i think everyone would at least agree he's pretty much EARNED the right to decide when he's ready to go & when he's not, & for how many minutes. significant minutes, & of HIS style of play, not constantly cutting his balls off in some constricting system.

    also, team doctors have consistently lied, just to make t-mac look bad. either saying he's not hurt when he IS hurt, or saying he's hurt when he's completely healthy. then the g.m. & coach don't want to give him any minutes... because they, like these so called doctors, either a)are too stupid to even know we'd be winning MORE if t-mac took over, or b)DO know he's the answer, but won't do it- just to sabatoge their own team (for their own motives). but still keep their jobs. either way, these "insulting" minutes are highly unprofessional & insulting.

    and a t-mac "jinx", seriously? why don't you blame him for spectators having ordering a Heineken & only getting a bud-light, if you're going to blame him for others' injuries!

    APPRECIATE, HATERS!
