Either way, Orlando made a mistake by trading McGrady to Houston because he could’ve teamed up with Dwight Howard in 2004

If it wasn't for those infections in and around his b whole they wouldn't have forced him out of the league. Players didn't want to play with him because the b whole juices would leak all over the court and stink up the entire arena. It was also well known that his dirty BBC had a sever odor problem as well. Probably from slamming all those homeless dude's b wholes when he wasn't leaking juice all over the court.

MJ is arguably the best player ever and most athletic, but was he the most skilled. I honestly think it's argument and he's in the conversation, but I think Wilt, Kareem, and Olajuwon were all more skilled. If we are including offense and defense as a total package. If we are strictly, offense, you got Pistol Pete, Larry Bird, Chris Paul, Steph Curry, LeBron, Kobe, Harden and it's pretty good list of guys. Please don't disrespect T-Mac, like that, the only people on that list you named who was actually better than T-Mac was...Barkley and maybe Pippen. John Starks? Nostalgia glasses. Pippen was about the greatest defender ever and pretty good offensive player, but offensively he was never in the same class as T-Mac. Hardaway and Hill, it's a little bit closer, but neither one averaged as many points as T-Mac and I agree they might take the edge in playmaking and point skills, but it's very close. T-Mac also was the best defender of the group, the most athletic, better 3 point shooter, and presented more matchup problems for opposing defenses. He stayed a little bit more healthy, during his prime as well.

I just want to remind you that he was averaging up around 27 a game at age 21 and as high as 32 PPG a few years later. He was 6'8", 210 lbs and unreal athleticism. The word smooth doesn't even do this guy justice. He jumped from a role player to as good as AI, Vince and Kobe almost overnight at age 21. With that type of sudden growth, the sky was the limit and it was really a rat-race between AI, Kobe and Tracy (Maybe Vince as he played SG sometimes) at that point to top of the post-MJ "Best SG in the League" battle. I know hind-sight is 20/20 and you can call me crazy or a crackhead but put into perspective the timeline there from 2000-01 to 2004-05. He was Lebron before Lebron in a lot of ways with his scoring, size and athletic ability.

T-Mac and Vince Carter were a duo I consider as iconic as Malone and Stockton. They won no ring together but they lost their fight with their head high. They made me care about the Raptors, an expansion team I considered as hot garbage before they put it on the map... Tracy had the mind of a tiger, but didn't have a body hardy enough to keep up the pace. Truly sad but what can you do when you're born injury prone...

most NBA star players have one career altering injury, after that one they are never the same, T-Mac had his in the age of 26, what's worse is his partner Yao Ming was another made-of-glass star, they just keep getting injured in turns, there was one period both of them were healthy and that season the Rockets got 22 wins straight.

Why NBA new players are good late 90s and early 20s because they wanna be like Mike, moves, dominate, and accomplishments and became like Kobe, Iverson, Vince, and more, but why players are physically good but something missing on all coming players now because they watched LBJ and believed LBJ was the best NBA player had.

Never passed 1st round. Not even in East. No excuses. In West with Yao (2 HoFs) they couldnt beat Carlos Boozer. "But hey he scored a lot buckets" Tmac was Adrian Dantley and we all know what ppl used to say about him.

Penny hardaway was so skilled, too. He got hurt which was a shame. Tracy was the guy Jerry Krause wanted. I think getting rid of Pippen was part of the deal.

I was a big fan of TMac and always blamed his injuries for not being a player that is reckonised in the top tier of NBA legends. He had it all. Problem is it was always about him and not the team. James Harden is another one. Top players, supreme talents but never got their teams where they needed to go

I wish they'd had a strength and conditioning coach for TMac's legs. The dude just needed a bit more support for those long limbs and he'd have lasted a long time, IMO.

I have to disagree with the title saying he's just as gifted as Jordan. T mac was very gifted but not like Jordan. Jordan was stronger then t mac while being able to jump higher with a longer hang time. Jordan's hands are insanely big which was so important for what he did.

That was à fair assessment! IMO Due to injuries and a lack of championships Tracey will just be considered a very good player but not and outstanding player! But if he been on the right team and had a few less injuries he would've been a top 20 player!
