Dominique Wilkins, Part II

The Memphis Grizzlies defeated the Houston Rockets 105-99, despite Tracy McGrady's 41 points on 16 for 28 shooting.
This game is of no importance, it's an early game during the pointless NBA regular season, but it's a microcosm of what I fear will be McGrady's career.
I'm a fan of two types of players, the pure scorer (McGrady) and the blue collar workman (Charles Oakley), and I love watching McGrady play, plus he's a good dude wading in a sea of douchbag athlete's. While the Rocket's have started quickly with a 6-2 record, you just can't help but think everything McGrady does is just futile and will always be destined for the 6th seed in the play-offs, accompanied by a first round exit.

I wonder what Tracy had for breakfast this morning? Eggs and toast? Pancakes? Freebie from last night's high priced hooker? Whatever it was, I'm sure it was a savory dish.
