Yao Ming Has Had Just About Enough of T-Mac

by Marcel Mutoni

Earlier this week, I posted a small item about Tracy McGrady supposedly bad-mouthing teammate Yao Ming behind his back. And now, according to David Aldridge, the two are no longer on speaking terms.

Not only that, but the Rockets’ franchise center wants the chronically-injured Tracy shipped out of town on the first thing smoking. From NBA.com:

The Rockets are putting a positive spin on this, but Waiting for Tracy is a play that nobody in Houston wants to see anymore — up to and including the big man, Yao Ming.

“They don’t speak,” an extremely plugged-in person tells me. “And Yao wants him out.”

As Aldridge points out, despite Yao’s wishes, McGrady’s contract is far too bulky for teams to consider trading with Houston. So, crummy health and all, he’s likely stuck there for at least the remainder of this season and possibly the next one.

Sorry, Yao.

    A guy with a “face book” (the e-version of flickr/photobucket + myspace + Middle School girls’ “Slambooks”) asking me wtf I’m talking about. (protip:that ain’t T-Mac’s real blog, bet on it) Social networking sites and those scene kids and vampires probably vote for T-Mac/Vince Carter into the All Star game too when he plays only as much as 15-20 total games during an injured season. Jerks. Trade T-Mac = no more China votes = no more All Star starting spot when he’s injured half a season or more.

    t-mac’s a bum….him and arenas are two of adidas’ finest always hurt players….never been dependable, so why the big contracts?? and houston will never go anywhere in the playoffs as long as they have those terrible jerseys…change the jerseys, you might have a chance. but yao is soft anyway so basically they’re nothing.

    “Houston, we have a problem…” I’m surprised that I got to say that.
