"...I wish I had stayed in Toronto." - T-Mac

[Humble (Not) Mike Tyson]

​

per SLAMOnline

Now retired and reflecting openly on his career, T-Mac says he regrets his decision to take his talents to Orlando in 2000. Per the Toronto Star: “More than 13 years later, in the days since he announced his retirement from the NBA last month at age 34, McGrady has been looking back fondly on his time in the NBA’s Canadian outpost. ‘In hindsight, looking back, obviously I wish I had stayed in Toronto,’ McGrady was saying in a recent telephone interview from his home in the Houston area. ‘There’s no doubt we could have contended for a championship. I think about that often. But if ‘if’ was a fifth, you know?’

Interesting...

The sad part is he could have still emerged as a superstar playing along side Vince and they definitely would have been the favorites in the East with him.

damon stoudamire said the same thing years later

Offensively as a duo had the potential to be better than Wade and lebron

The sad part is he could have still emerged as a superstar playing along side Vince and they definitely would have been the favorites in the East with him.

Leaving for Orlando wouldn't have been bad if Grant Hill was healthy.

From 00-04 who in the East was gonna beat Vince and T-Mac at their respective peaks? That shyt woulda been MIA before MIA. The Raptors were a VC missed jumper from the ECF in 01. Imagine if T-Mac was on that team. Between T-Mac's bad choice and G. Hill's injuries we were robbed.

Too late now nikka, you shouldn't have been hatin on your cousin being the "man"

him and Vince. They couldn't wait to get out of town. fukk em.

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

One of the dumbest moves ever. He left because he wanted to be the man but when given a team he didn't wanna be the man.

When Jeff Van Gundy was asked who the leader of that 22 game win streak was dude said Chuck fukkin Hayes.

be selfish brehs

 

[Rice N Beans]

It's Toronto I don't blame him. But if he really cared about contending he should have stayed. It was when he left to be the man of another team.

Man Tmac is an idiot what a dumbass selfish move that was to leave Tdot to go play with an all star in Grant Hill...
