NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.
Tracy McGrady has made an immediate good impression, which is exactly what all the experts tell you to do. Tracy did it by making offensive moves mostly in the first half that left the Madison Square Garden crowd chanting his name in the second half.
Tracy McGrady scores 26 points trying to convince the Knicks to keep him
This is a game where David Lee outscored Tracy McGrady and Kevin Durant outscored both of them.
The New York Knicks lost the game, but they were actually leading this game and probably should have won it. There will be time to learn how to win, right now they just have to figure out if Tracy McGrady is right for the team or not and if the crowd was any kind of judge then that decision has been already made.
The 6-foot-8 former All-Star showed right away that he is the best play-maker the Knicks have had since Latrell Sprewell. His vision and passing ability make him a dangerous offensive weapon, especially on pick-and-rolls. And McGrady still has the ability to take over a game. He hit a deep three from the corner with 32 seconds left in the second quarter and then ended the half with a long jumper, giving the Knicks a 57-52 lead. “I’m in better shape than I thought I was,” said McGrady, playing his first game since Dec. 23.

The Knicks have a real chance to rebuild this team by next year. Not only will they get a high draft pick courtesy of their poor record, but they will have a chance to bid for Tracy McGrady’s services, and they have a ton of cap money to buy more players, perhaps another star player. If that was all it would be good news, but there is more. David Lee is becoming a NBA star player and the Nate Robinson deal yielded a great outside shooter in Eddie House.
The fans at the Garden can sense the changes coming and have to be happy.
