The newest Knicks addition Tracy McGrady scores 26pts in his debut

vs OKC Thunder, 32mins, 26pts, 5ast and unfortunately 2 missed free throws in the end of the 4th quarter... Who knows, maybe if he made them, the Knicks would win. But it was also Durant's night and there was no one who could stop him. Anyway, enjoy the vid!
Oh btw, Rockets vs Pacers. 115-125... HMMMMM.
"I hadn't felt that good in a while, and to hear those chants [the first "We want Tra-cy" chant occurred with 8 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter] really sent chills down my spine," McGrady said. "It felt foreign when I first stepped out there. I had the jitters."

Its funny how the presence of a star even when no longer a star, can make a difference. Just the fact teams need to acknowledge the stars presence opens up other guys games. I distinctly remember he was not his explosive self but just his presence on the floor got the knicks moving the ball. They looked like a team.

[@lancebell5852]

Well said

[@thunderstruck665]

Thanks a ton for posting this. It shows that scoring 26 points is only half the story. The way he scored and created opportunities was nothing short of asounding! It definitely didn't look like he saw virtually no action for the better part of two years. It's an absolute testament to just how consumate a professional T-Mac is.

[@BMACPOLAND1]

I'm impressed too. There was no doubt that T-Mac CAN PLAY (and could play when he was with the Rockets) but what he did yesterday it was just amazing! I thought about 10-15pts, a couple of assists. After first quarter when he scored 10 and made some outstanding passes.. well I was shocked! Anyway, it's his first game with the Knicks so lets wait for more, hope his knees are gonna be okay cause I heard there were some problems. :(

They would've won this game if T-Mac was 100%. I mean damn!! The Knicks pummeled the Thunder when T-Mac was on the floor but in the 2nd half he didnt played much because of health issue(stamina) then the Thunder took over. Even though T-Mac missed those crucial free throws he still did a good job leading the Knicks so i cant hold him responsible for the lost. But i do want him back to superstar level soon. I still want him to be in the playoffs. Its still a possibility you know ^^

[@royalace2271]

Tmac was talented no doubt. He has had some unfortunate injuries throughout his career. But I think he was never truly a hard worker. During his prime, he never truly took care of his body during the offseason and uses training camp and preseason to play his way into shape. Also, look at his young Orlando years and the Rockets years. He gained some weight when he arrived in Houston and stayed that way from then on. If he kept himself in great shape and kept his weight, he would have a different career

[@brianwatts5185]

Royal Ace no offense but you obviously don't know what you're talking about...
