The 2000's were loaded. Every team has their own superstar. And those superstars were really fun to watch. I'm glad I was able to witness that great era.
@@randombucksfan5477 sacramento kings was my favorite team. Always fun to watch, sad they didnt win a title. Because of some controversies and that robert horry. Heartbreaking.
That's bs he said Ai was the only player that always kept him on his toes defensively.. Ai dropped multiple 40+ point games against Kobe guarding him Tmac never did that
Kobe always changes his answer but I never seen anybody make Kobe look so foolish on defense as Ai did.. Just watch some games with Kobe guarding Ai then watch the games where Kobe guarded Tmac he clearly guarded Tmac a lot better than he guarded Ai.. I laugh when Tmac only mentions Kobe as his rival when Iverson was clearly a better player than Tmac was the only year Tmac was better than Iverson was in 03 every year before or after Iverson was hands down the better player and the stats prove it
It was just ridiculous... He was a lethal sniper... He hasn't blood in his veins, just titanium bullets and lot of gunpowder... It's impressive the confidence in his eyes and body language taking the ball in those final seconds knowing he was about to kill them... Even being fouled... Thank God he wasn't a criminal on the streets, because he would assassin a lot of people without missing a head shot...
I turned off the TV for 1 minute when I saw 1 minute left on the clock, and Spurs up. Then turn it ON, and T-Mac start happening. That was a freaking crazy game.
me too bro back in 07 i started to watch nba because of him playing nba live 07 on my ps2 lol fell in love with the game bacause of that game what a classic
@@zay3304 Yeah, but he even admitted, he was a shell of himself, he wasn't a major contributor & he wasn't the main star or even the 2nd star, he barely wears it or mentions it, according to him
I'm from Houston, I remember the 13 in 30 like it was yesterday. As a Rocket fan I just knew that some miracle was going to happen that night. I believed as the seats started to empty early as the hometown fans couldn't imagine a comeback as the one T-Mac carried out all by himself. I'll never forget this moment.
Well I didn't grow up with them, but thanks to RUclips I can watch the old greats highlights and even full games. I can sayMcGrady is my favorite player ever. Just the way he played was special and magical (no pun intended😂)
@The Techxtremist Kobe claimed T-Mac was pretty much him but taller by 3 inches. If it weren’t for the injuries, T-Mac would be in the top 10 of all time.
Truly we don't really know but what we do know is he never a complete team around like Kobe, MJ, Magic, Dr. J, D-Wade, Jerry West, Bird, Curry, & Isaiah, get the picture, all these ALL-TIME great had more complete & talented teams around them!!
Perfect combination of skill, athleticism, and basketball IQ! If he was in his prime playing today, he would be the best in the league without a doubt.
Definitely unstoppable if He plays in this soft, no defense and no hand checking era. He was averaging 30+ppg in the Magic while also playing good defense. He was also unguardable during his prime and his arrow sharpshooting will be a threat to everyone.
Eh, plenty of players do it. The players started developing after Jordan. Kobe, after becoming super Kobe did this and more. Hell, me and a few friends did it on regular basis after noticing it's equivalent to left handed layups and right handed layups. But I agree with you on some of these spin off the glass reverse lay ups. However, watching him, and Jordan, you'd see they miss it more than make it.
The 🐐. Tmac is my favourite player and forever will be. One of the greatest scorers ever and could’ve been top 5 all time with that kinda talent. Injuries man💔
That last moment when he dropped 13 in over 30 seconds make feel joy and chills... Even tears and admiration of how great T-Mac was... Such a joy watching him doing things that made even explode the stadiums... Thank God we could watch him playing... Tears of joy and proud of McGrady... Great basketball memories...
As a Chinese it was Yao brought me into NBA. Of course, I support Yao and Houston but t-mac plays basketball like an art. That shocked me so much cos I have never seen someone play like that before. The way he dribbled and those jumpshots are so beautiful. Though I watched Kobe, AI, Dwade afterwards, T-mac is unreplaceable to me.
Glad Yao brought you into basketball. Its a beautiful and fun sport to play and watch. Im a lakers fan but Yao and Tracy are two of my favorites and hall of famers
It was just plain amazing watching T-Mac play during his prime. He was so good and strong in both defense and offense that you could see him as Jordan and Pippen rolled into one basketball player. He may have not won a ring and had a career cut short by injuries, but he definitely deserves all the recognition and to be in the Hall of Fame.
My first ever favorite player. I was 9 years old when I truly started loving nba basketball (before that i was basically only watching my UK Cats play). TMac was just everything I wanted to be whenever I played basketball...he had it all and his back just screwed him. Imagine that Magic team if GHill and McGrady were both fully healthy together 🔥🔥
2:44 was ridiculous!! I love watching this man play! He was an absolute beast!! The best play for at least 5 years. I miss he energy and he had the attitude to tell anyone I’ll dunk on you without hesitation! The blocks were ridiculous too!
as a kid growing up in la and rooting for the lakers all my life, t-mac was still my favorite player growing up. i thought there was no one like him at his peak. dude could do everything and anything offensively. wished he moved on from orlando a bit earlier. when ppl complain about why players move around teams and take their careers into their own hands, the missed opportunities in tmac’s career is one of the reasons why. Anywho…loved T-mac 💙🤍
T Mac's game was just amazing to watch. He was the first person I ever saw throw the ball off the glass to themselves!! Offensively he super athletic, fundamentally sound and could shoot lights out.
Watching these highlights reminds me just how similar his and Kobe's swagger were. They looked like they were always playing against a bunch of guys that doubted them in a stadium full of doubters. Menacing dunks, nasty lay-up packages, and sharp-shooting from 3, not to mention they could play best-of-the-best defense when they wanted to
I remember that 13 point 4th quarter game vividly! i lived in San Antonio at the time and had just came home from a aau league game that night, i always watched the NBA on TNT and i caught the 4th quarter of the game. As soon as T-Mac hit that first 3 i knew we were in for a good finish 🔥
As a life long Kobe and Lakers fan, I really enjoyed watching Tmac play and loved his game. You don't see players like him, Kobe, AI, KG, VC anymore. Glad I witnessed them as a kid.
Most memorable for me was when he scored 13 pts in 33 seconds against the Spurs. I had the honour of watching it live on TV at the time. Brilliant player full of talent.
Just miss watching the NBA and guys like T-MAC. Seeing him dominate w/ the Magics and then trying to pair up with Yao was transcendent at that time, like he finally had a Duo in the making. Sad to see him get injured; I suspect he relied too much on his intense style of play without evolving his game. Glad to see him on TV and still giving fans what they want!
I felt it was wrong when he wore #1 in Orlando. Another even more freakishly talented player wore that number there in the '90s and the franchise should've retired it in my opinion. I still own multiple Penny Hardaway #1 Magic jerseys.
@Erin Duverger His coach said his body actually does not allow him to train much, otherwise he gets injured (more) quickly. That's probably why he does not like it.
@@jeffersontorres3609 Ai averaged 8+ assists once he got shooters around him.. He was a willing passer just played with scrubs for most of his career so was forced to take all the shots
@CeltiKKKs Fan They really are dumb as hell lmao. Every video of a retired star you'll see someone say "in today's game". Tmac would be put out the playoffs the same way he was back then because "in today's game" one man can't beat these teams.
@S Wavey 43% from the field is far from flawless. Tracy mcgrady was a nice player, very raw and well rounded. But don't hype him up to be more than he was. Durability is a huge part of your ability.
I dont know about 35 ppg, maybe it can be done, but youre right about that he can compete with kobe, i think if he didnt suffer his injuries, he can compete for the best player of the 2000s
Tmac was unreal we'll never see another player like this ever. He was the first player to start throwin it off the backboard to himself in game. He was the hardest player kobe ever had to guard, because he was taller and could do everything kobe could and then some💯💯💯
T-MAC all the way BABY!!!🏀🏀🥰🥰🥰🔥🔥🔥 LOVE watching that man play in the NBA! Those 90s when they were all coming into the league… oh my goodness! One of the GREATEST ERA of Basketball!! 🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
Yeah man Tmac and Kobe had Duels , if you watch the actual Game Kobe comes back straight after that play and dunks on the whole team lol those two brought the best out of each other
One of the most talented players/scorers of all time. Loved to watch him play 🔥
James Clayton u think he would’ve won a ring if he played wit AI 76ers
As a kid T-Mac inspired me to go out and play, watching these highlights I’m getting some flash backs.
Tylee Davis definitely
and passers
Matt Wright Fr one of the most underrated passers of all time
The 2000's were loaded. Every team has their own superstar. And those superstars were really fun to watch. I'm glad I was able to witness that great era.

luckily his career wasn't completely derailed like a Grant Hill or Penny Hardaway but he definitely had injury issues
Tracy McGrady is one of the best players of his generation. His off-the-glass dunks were just amazing.

I dont know about 35 ppg, maybe it can be done, but youre right about that he can compete with kobe, i think if he didnt suffer his injuries, he can compete for the best player of the 2000s
Mac would bake in any era. His game was as complete as it gets.
One of the greatest player to ever played this game!!!!!!!
Tmac was unreal we'll never see another player like this ever. He was the first player to start throwin it off the backboard to himself in game. He was the hardest player kobe ever had to guard, because he was taller and could do everything kobe could and then some💯💯💯
T Mac was an incredible passer
6:48 is my favorite play of all time
He looked like he was flying
@@xarmanhsh2981 he was going up the elevator
Back when there was creativity in basketball. Man I miss the 00's
3:35 HOW DID I NOT KNOW THAT THIS MAN BROKE KOBES ANKLES
I swear I just paused the video an thought the same thang
Dude, how many times have these people played each other? It doesn't mean shit. Everybody can get faked.
You were all busy watching teletubbies and blues clues while tmac breaking everyones ankles in the nba probably. 2x scoring champ
Yeah the had some beast duels , If you watched the actual game kobe came straight back after that play and dunked on the whole team lol
Kobe damn near broke the rim on the next play lol
T-MAC all the way BABY!!!🏀🏀🥰🥰🥰🔥🔥🔥 LOVE watching that man play in the NBA! Those 90s when they were all coming into the league… oh my goodness! One of the GREATEST ERA of Basketball!! 🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
T Mac and his cousin Vince are the two most underrated clutch players ever.
My favorite basketball player of all time
Im sorry but he broke kobe down Mj style.post up shoulder fake fadaway Damn🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Calvin Pennix
Kobe put the hit out on TMac!
He knew TMac would've made his life hell!
Yeah man Tmac and Kobe had Duels , if you watch the actual Game Kobe comes back straight after that play and dunks on the whole team lol those two brought the best out of each other
Kobe dunked the shit out of it next play. Two hands in traffic i believe
Some of the best battles were between these 2, wow.
He shook the piss outta mamba when that fake tho🤣🔥
Probably the most talented player we've seen in the NBA. If only he wasn't injury prone. People don't understand how GOOD he really was.
Def 1 of the most underrated Bball players to ever play!
Toe for Toe he could go head up with any player on offense or defense!
one of the forgotten GOATs
