Fight
Raised in Auburndale, Florida by his mother and grandmother, Tracy had a passion for the sport since the beginning. Baseball was his first love and pitching was his thing. With an average fastball and a big bat to start, Tracy was on his way to a possible career in majors. Then in 1993, came this guy they called Penny. As a fan of Magic, Tracy watched and idolized young Penny Hardaway. Its brand new style of play is exactly the inspiration needed to take Tracy his playing hoop to the next level. From there, his career began floors.
Tracy Junior Year at Auburndale High School, he decided to focus all his attention to his new love, basketball. It was when he started to bloom in the exciting athlete we all know that T-Mac. With averages of 23 PPG and 12 RPG, Tracy would have easily caught the attention of college recruiters, but It was also good to skip class, which finally got the kick of the team. Only Florida and Miami would even talk to him, but the end, did not want Tracy. Fortunately for him if his AAU coach, Mr. Alvis Smith has also worked for Adidas. He finagled an invitation to Camp Tracy ABCD summer when the young teen Cocksure, wanted to prove his talent up against Lamar Odom, the big dog who had the honor attention all. Well Tracy got his wish. He matched against Lamar, and the owner. After that (still a junior), Tracy took part in the main game All-Star. In this game, came a game that Tracy will always look back on when he knew had finally arrived. He took off in the courtyard on a fast break, high-jumped over the Felton 6'9 "James, and made a spectacular windmill dunk that everyone in this bitch in complete fear. After performance at summer camp and the main game, Tracy had gone from a virtual person who does not even make the cut in the top 500 prospects list prior to this summer, for # 2 on the list even behind Lamar Odom. Impressed yet?
After Witness Tracy instant increase in page, the same man who had taken the ABCD Camp helped him find a new high school to play in its senior year. The school was Mount Zion Christian Academy located in Durham, NC. This was the point of his young life, Tracy has developed his skills of real leadership. Coach Joel Hopkins, who called himself the "Black Bobby Knight," took under his wing Tracy. Her little boy ended up leading the Mighty Warriors to a 20-1 record this year with an average of 27.5 PPG, 8.7 RPG and 7.7 APG and 2.8 steals. Tracy shot 56.4% in goals on the field, 38.9% on three, and 79.1% from the line. He played all five positions with ease. Tracy completed his senior year being named to the team All-America, was awarded the USA Today player of the year, and it has been a 3-page article in Sports Illustrated.
After his rapid rise at the beginning, Tracy was found to be pondering the most sense for himself and his family. Should he accept the scenario College best in the Kentucky Wildcats, or waive all colleges and enter the NBA Draft? Well, we all know the wise decision young Tracy done. Before long, it was updated July 25 and glorious project had finally come. When he got to pick number 8, Tracy became worried. And then it happened. With recovery 8th the 1997 NBA Draft, Golden State Warriors take … … … Adonal Foyle!?? Wha??! In what would be one of the saddest "what if" moments Warriors history franchise (and believe me there are many), PJ Carlesimo and the Warriors have a chance of Tracy and the place is Foyle. It is a year after drafting Todd Fuller More O'Neal Kobe, Nash, Peja, J. &. I continue as I am now breaking things in my house while remembering these stellar motions, Toronto seized Tracy recovery 9.
His rookie year in Toronto was nothing to write home about. Tracy wrestled through difficult times that were required to produce a teenager in high school to make the jump into the large mouth of the beast that is the NBA. But the near future was a different story for Tracy and the Raptors. It was the 1998-99 season as the Raptors finally merged team and establish a good season. They drafted Vince Carter, who happens to be cousin of Tracy. In addition, they had the brand new digs that await them in Central Air Canada. Tracy had developed greatly during the lockout and its bulk part very well. It was a puzzle piece and parcel of Toronto this year, average 9.3 PPG & 5.7 RPG in 22 minutes. Tracy also holds a 20.6 PER, and a TS of 50.4%. Many speculated it was the arrival of Carter and their great friendship that has raised Thurs Tracy and gave him the confidence he needed to make people take notice. They had become inseparable off the court.
Tracy 1999-00 season, he took a rough start in the eyes of the organization. Mouth wide in the media playing time and the presentation of a lack of consistency, Tracy needed to adjust his attitude and his game until he has done, he maintains his sixth man role. With only two months before the post season, Tracy has become a starter. They immediately began play as a team playoff bound. Toronto has won 11 of 13 games as soon as Tracy was inserted in the starting lineup. He finished the season having averaged 15.4 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 1.41 steals and 1.91 blocks. He had a TS of 50.95% and 20.0 per and 21 (Win Shares). In the post-season Toronto has been swept by the Knicks, but Tracy has played inspired basketball throughout the series. In addition, he had scored the first edition of NBA playoff games played in Canada.
In 2000, cons-season has started the relationship player-coach between good coach Doc Rivers and Tracy. Tracy Rivers wooed back home in Orlando, promising many things Tracy, but More importantly, the rock. He has slipped on the jersey number 1, already shaken by none other than his hero Mr. Penny Hardaway, and went to work. After Grant Hill went down with season-ending surgery Tracy had become the man in Orlando. He really took to the task. rigorous training and weighted by the long stretches away, and practice sessions on the field of luxury close Shaq helped Tracy become stronger both mentally and physically. This year, he set up career numbers with 26.8 PPG, 7.5 RPG, 4.6 APG, 1.5 blocks and 1.5 steals in 40 minutes. He also flashed in 52.08% of TS, a PER of 24.9, a 32 was, and was key in the Magic trip to the playoffs. Tracy was on the list of All-Star second team All-NBA, and took most Improved Player Award, to boot!
In the NBA playoffs in 2001, Tracy shone bright. The Magic were matched against Milwaukee. Tracy had 33 points, 9 rebs, and 8 assists in Game One. Two games, he had 35 points in 42 minutes, 7 assists, and scored 20 straight in the first half. Game 3, he recorded 42 points and 10 assists, 8 rebs, 3 steals and 2 blocks. Game 4, he led the Magic with 25 points and 8 assists, but all this was not sufficient to ensure a second win and magic have been sent to collect their gear.
During the 2001-02 season, once again without Hill, Tracy has played well enough to once again be named to the All-Star team, and the first All-NBA team. He averaged 25.6 in the NBA best fourth PPG, 25.1 per, 33 & A was 53.21% The TS (TS% on his career best to date). In addition, he was one of only two NBA players to develop at least 25 points, 5 rebs and 5 assists this year. Behind their star, the Magic won a trip another series post-season, this time they took on the Red Hot Charlotte Hornets. Tracy had a great series, leading the Magic in scoring each game and playing his usual feisty D, but he could not do it alone, and alone he was. The rest of the Magic games just bad. Charlotte guard Baron Davis finished off the series with back-to-back triple doubles and sealed the coffin on the dreams of the magic of the second round.
2002-03 has proved to be an incredible year for Tracy. Seizing NBA scoring title was a very pleasant time, but it has some Dazzlers on its way. Tracy scored 52 points in a game against Chicago, Detroit and 46 against New Jersey, and 48 & 47 against Milwaukee. He also finished third League to FGS and FTS fact, and fifth three points. He finished the season averaged 32.1 PPG, 44 was a TS of 56.4%, and a kick-ass 30.29 PER. This season ends with yet another playoff first round to beat, this time by Detroit. Nothing came together in this series, like the others. In the series, Tracy averaged 31.7 PPG, putting up 43 points in 39 minutes of Game One and 46 points in 45 minutes of play while all other two entries combined for only 19! For the third game, Drew Gooden started putting up double digits as well, but both of them were there alone. Detroit took the series in seven games. It was a crushing defeat for the seriously high hopes Magic.
Tracy wanted to focus on the skills he felt he was lacking during the offseason. He intended to discipline because he felt that was entirely his fault the Magic were unable to move to Eastern Conference Seeding the past season. Tracy realized that was to do what he did already, plus all the little things that are not ripped on your stats sheet. Unfortunately, none of this importance once the season began. With a team with virtually no support, and injury to the hill, Garrity and Giricek, the Magic were on a path to destruction. A bright spot in the disaster that was the 2003-04 season, was a game against the Wizards. Tracy scored 62 points, becoming the player in NBA history to do 11. He ended the year with 28 PPG, 25.28 PER, 52.6% TS, an AST of 30.0%, and another title of best NBA scorer. Tracy has also been named a first team All-Star record despite the horrible Magic 21-61.
The 2004 Off-season was a milestone in the career of Tracey. A large trade had landed in Houston with caprice of nature, Yao Ming. First time, gelation new teammates and coaching staff has been slow and go. Before long, everything seemed to proceed normally and the Rockets finished with a 51-31 record. A game has become a time when something completely magical happened. On December 9th place match against the Spurs, the Rockets fell to less than minute in the game, most of the crowd at Houston had given up and left. At that time, Tracy decided that was time for him to take over. He scored 13 points in 35 seconds, including the game winner with 1.7 seconds left. * I am adding the video of this song incredible history of the NBA in the comments below. Please look, thanks .* Rockets organization was very pleased with how things come together. They were ready to make a strong playoff run. Tracy finished the year with 25.7 PPG 6.2 RPG, 5.7 APG and 1.7 steals with a 22.97 PER and 52.6% TS. Once in the playoffs, the Rockets have been hyped and confident in their game against Dallas. Tracy and Yao delivered only one or two punch up solid numbers, and the Rockets won the first two games. But the game of the series defining was the third game. The Mavs made a 20-0 run wild in the fourth quarter and won by four points. This victory has proven strengthen the confidence of Dallas and they have won three of four remaining games to advance, leaving Tracy with another early exit from the ring hunting. He successfully put up 30.7 PPG, 7.4 RPG, 6.7 APG, 1.6 steals and 1.4 blocks in the series lose.
At the time of the 2005-06 season arrived, the body of Tracy began telling him something. The enormous work load he had been the shoulder for the last 8 seasons NBA, were finally catching up to him. No surprise really, he always tried to do everything. Playing about 40 minutes per game each season since 2000-01 he must have some problems with wear and tear. Houston 15.2 with the games that Tracy has missed because of his injuries. They finished the season with a dismal record 34-48. Tracy played only 47 games but finished with 24.4 PPG, 6.5 RPG, APG 4.8n, a 35.0% SGA, and 21.9. It was of course devastated by the season lose and took all the blame.
Last season, the Rockets 52-30. Tracy scored 24.6 PPG, 6.5 APG in 35.8 minutes. He was 23 is, 35.0% SGA, 37.5% AST, and 23.2. With that, they headed to the postseason to face Carlos Boozer and the Utah Jazz. Games One and Two, Houston Jazz beat except Boozer scored 41 in game two points and 12 rebounds. Tracy declined by 31 and 10 in this game and from there headed to Houston Utah with two convincing victories in their pocket. Three sets of jazz feel all the comforts of home as they have killed the Rockets with a game high bench and defense. Houston has a 0 combined their bench and lost by 14. Game four was a terrible loss, Game Five Rockets squeaked a W at home with scoring 26 points and Tracy 16 assists. Back in Utah spelled with a Tracy loss score 26 points and 10 assists. The series ended with a final game in Houston in September. Tracy fell 29 points, 13 assists and three blocks, but it was not enough. Yao scored 29 too, but failed to get crucial rebounds and the Jazz took the game and the series to advance to the semifinals of the Western Conference against this team very exciting thugs, scrubs and rejects the Bay Area that nobody knew or taken for around until May 3, 2007. For Tracy McGrady, it was another heartbreaking loss and wastage of the season. Still no closer to a ring, and feeling far more than ever, it was openly distraught.
This season so far has played Tracy in 29 of 43 games due to a left knee injury. So far in January they have only lost three games without him. Now he is back in programming and he plays more minutes every game. Houston is looking to move in their division because they are 7 games back now, but mounted on a four-game winning streak against SA and Portland win in crazy! Look for the streak to end next Tuesday when they meet a team of Golden State, which of course has Houston this season.
Will this be the year Tracy Championship? It depends many factors. I will not speculate on the trade rumors because that's all they are yet. I just hope that Whatever happens, Tracy finally able than large rocks, shiny ring that he worked his ass from the last eleven years to get his finger. The man deserves more than anything. He has demonstrated beyond doubt that you can not cry the fight in him.
