McGrady falling apart
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3384799
Quote:
HOUSTON -- Houston Rockets guard Tracy McGrady had arthroscopic surgery on his left shoulder and left knee on Tuesday.
Dr. Tom Clanton, the team physician, told the Houston Chronicle that no structural damage was found in the ligament or cartilage of McGrady's knee. Loose particles were removed from both the knee and the shoulder.
The newspaper said Dr. Hussein Elkhousy repaired a slight labrum tear on McGrady's shoulder.

Hope you get some good rest over this summer T-Mac

Some other things...

McGrady on Tuesday underwent arthroscopic surgeries to remove loose bodies from his knee and shoulder and to repair a slightly torn labrum in the shoulder. He is expected to need three months to be fully recovered, though he can begin rehabilitation in the next week or two.

Rockets guard Rafer Alston (right hamstring) and forward Shane Battier (loose particles in left ankle) are scheduled for arthroscopic surgeries Friday.

Re: McGrady falling apart
Even though he is getting fixed, this still makes me worried about next year. I mean after the lasst 3 years, how can any Houston fan not be worried?

It takes a lot to break a mountain, especially Mt. Mutombo.

Re: McGrady falling apart
On this note, do we shock the world and trade him away now while his trade value might be high because of the nice playoff series again?
With Artest possibly gone in SacTown maybe they would be open to a deal.
Houston Trades:
Tracy, Luther, Francis, #25
Sacramento Trades:
Artest, Miller, #12
Houston gets its backup C and another monster on D plus an opportunity at #12 to get a pretty good player. Sacramento might go for this since they are kinda rebuiiding a bit. Maybe they would be intrigued with Martin at the 2 and Tracy at the 3.
Sacramento gets a guy in Tracy that we hope they will be blinded by the injuries a decent regular season role player in Luther and Francis's expiring contract plus they don't lose their draft pick and rid themselves of Miller's long term contract.

Re: McGrady falling apart
Les has already said they'll continue to build in the Yao-Tracy tandem. So don't expect either to be traded.

Thats what I have been thinking. This staff over the last few years does not have a good track record..

I like the idea of getting Artest while his value is low (he'll be more expensive after another year of sanity), but what happens at the end of next season when he leaves for New York? We're basically trading Tracy McGrady, a late first round pick and $5 million in expirings for one season of Artest, the #12 pick and Brad Miller's bad contract.

Nothing is up. Physical training staff are similar across the league.

Re: McGrady falling apart
McGrady is not going to be traded, at least not until the season starts. McGrady is falling apart. One year its his back. Next it's his shoulders. He's getting injured left and right. Next season we should reduce his minutes. Maybe that will work.
