What do you think of this Tracy McGrady analysis

[23]

What's up with T-Mac? At Orlando he was primetime. Since the trade to Houston you never hear about him anymore and Houston is playing awful. The Magic would be a contender for their division if Shaq had not gone to the Heat. So I ask again what has happened to T-Mac?


This is one of the sad stories of this NBA season. Something is just not right in Houston. The blame has to be shared equally by Yao Ming. He has not become the dominant force I expected. McGrady has not been overwhelmingly brilliant as we expected. Van Gundy just hasn't built a cohesive team from what appears to be a legit roster. Tracy is a player who is as gifted as any player ever possibly. Tracy is finding out the hard facts of the NBA. You are only as good as your teammates. I think the biggest problem in Houston is the things McGrady does best, he isn't getting the opportunity to do. He likes to go to the rack. In Houston, the set offense, Yao Ming is in the post. Because they don't fast break much, the creativeness of McGrady's game gets lost in the overanalyzing and overthinking that this is all about effort and they just need to try harder. Basketball is like rock music. It's about creating a flow and experimenting. The slower the game, the harder that is and the more consequece each error creates.

I have disagree about how you said Mcgrady likes to go to the rack. Even in Orlando, Mcgrady loved to come down the court and jack up a shot more often then I saw him go to the hole.

I agree that it is mostly Van Gundy's fault. He's not utilizing Mac like he should.

It all roots to 2003. Look at all his previous seasons in Orlando. Notice anything? He shot 45% his first three seasons, and got to the line a lot.

It is somewhat like the VC situation. He is settling for more jumpshots, not getting to the line as much, not driving as much, etc. Thats why his three pointers are up, FG % down, and FT attempts down.

Yao clogs the lane though.

He didn't drive as much in 2003, either though.
