Good day,everyone:
To be honest and frank,I am a one hundred percet of Rocketman.Thus,I do care about any events and behaviors within the Houston Rockets.As we all know,it has been left less than a week for its approaching due of trade on Feb.19th.According to the former achievement Rockets has made,it is self-evident that Rockets doesnot satisfy the high damand and expectation from its beloving fans and management owing to its consitition of dreaming team and big deal.Maybe,it is quite attributed to the problems of variable injuries and so-called chemistry effect,especially when Ron Attest came to this team.Whereas,have you ever considered such a question what is the substantial problem occuring in such a dream-made-up team?In respect to the condition of TracyMcGrady,the captain of Houston Rockets,Shall he be only responsible for the current situation of Rockets?If you favor this point that he is the merely person who ought to give out something,such as good traits a great player is equipped with,will another team shall recive such a player having a great a risk?Really Hope Rockets will be a ROCKET rushing to the sky belonging to every rocketmen.

I think it would be a big mistake for the Rockets to trade TMac. He has really improved as a player these last two years. In Orlando, he would only shoot 3's, now he is an all-around player. I think the Rockets can make a nice playoff run this year, finally, assuming they are healthy come May/June. As far as the chemistry, and the alleged problems between Tracy and Yao, and Tracy and Artest, they can set their differences aside for the team and for winning, especially at playoff time. Each of these guys is a veteran, and they will gel together to make it happen. I don't think the trade will happen. Besides Tracy's contract is so huge, who would want it?

Exatly,I do appreciate your opinion.whereas,there`s also prevaling another version on Rockets` trade that "Beast"Ron Artest will be traded to Nets for Vice Carter on the Internet.You know,although Carter and TMac are brothers and Carter is also a greater player,all star level,he has been encountering the same problem as TMac of injuries.Meanwhile,he has been another big contract on himself.Thus,I do hope the manager of Rockets,Murray could have a second thoughts on this trade whatever on anyone,especially making use of Artest to replace another one when it fails on TMac.

Yeah, I can't imagine Carter and McGrady together. Especially with Yao. That is too many guys who need the ball. Plus, they are cousins and I don't know how they get along now, but in the past their relationship was rough, supposedly. But that would be interesting, huh? I forgot they played together in Toronto, back in the day. That would actually be very interesting.

The rockets need to be disbanded. TMAC, has played better the last two years. he tanked in Orlando to get traded. yao, might want TMAC gone but at the end of the day Who is Yao, other than his height he has not proven that he is a player. He slow pull him from under the basket and he`s helpless.In order to be a better team each and everyplayer has to accept their role.Also they need some shooters to take the pressure off Yao.

there's a rumor going on that yao isn't talking to mcgrady and yao wants mcgrady out of the team. kind of far fetched in my opinion since yao doesn't seem to be the type of player who would demand such a thing. anyway, mcgrady isn't an ideal franchise palyer to build your team around. he can score yes, but he hardly does anything else. at best, mcgrady can be a second or third option offensively. i just don't see mcgrady being able to carry these rockets team all the way to the nba finals. now, if the rockets have a healthy yao ming, ron artest, and tracy mcgrady plus a good set of bench players, maybe they can go deep int he play-offs. yao can carry this team as he can dominate on both ends of the floor same thing with artest. they can lead the rockets on the floor something that mcgrady can't seem to do. they can opt to trade mcgrady but i doubt if any team wants him.
i sure miss the old rockets championship team of olajuwon, horry, drexler, cassell, and mario elie. their championship sweep of the orlando magic was a classic as well as their 7 game war against the new york knicks.
