Some offers have apparently been made to the Orlando Magic for Tracy McGrady. What do you guys think? I say they're crazy if they go through with either of the following......

Ante up for T-Mac
The Orlando Sentinel is reporting that the Pacers, Rockets and Suns are three teams that have expressed an interest in Tracy McGrady. The Magic, according to a source, have asked the Pacers for Ron Artest, Al Harrington, Jamaal Tinsley and Jonathan Bender in return. Also, the Magic has asked for Cuttino Mobley, Steve Francis and Kelvin Cato from Houston.

Houston would be stupid to get rid of Francis.

Why trade for a guy with a Bad back, plays no D at all, and if he doesn't get his 20+ shots per game cry's

I will give McGrady his due. I recall seeing numerous games where Tracy was the only player trying to do a damn thing on the court. The man would have won a MVP award by now if his supporting cast helped him win.

Rob...lol....we obviously aren't on the same page here.

I was thinking just the opposite. No way I would give up possibly a top 3 player in the league in McGrady for either of those trades. Only thing I would consider is some sort of 3 way deal in which the Magic would get Francis and Artest Both!

Still would not give up a Franchise player for just below star~status players. It would be awesome for Houston if they could pull it off to match McGrady & Ming. They are both young and would create an unbelievable team soon.
