MainEv3nt Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Tracy McGrady has agreed to a one-year deal with the Hawks for the veteran-minimum, according to a source. McGrady played for the Pistons last season, starting in 39 of the 72 games in which he appeared. McGrady will presumably replace the bench scoring provided by Jamal Crawford.

ChosenOne Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Let's hope he can fill Crawfords shoes. Don't think he will but hopefully he can get close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check my Stats Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Like this fit for both sides. T-Mac wouldn't fit in Chicago or Miami, at least not as well as he will in Atlanta. A team like Atlanta can use T-Mac's ball handling abilities at the SF/SG position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobb Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 This just got me excited for the season to start. Pretty good move for the veteran minimum considering he's still a quality sixth man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AboveLegit Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 If they can create a defined role for him in this condensed season, this is a terrific signing. As he's gotten older, he's obviously lost his athleticism which has forced him to rely on his shot a little more, but he's still able to handle the ball and create for teammates, which is a great attribute off the bench. They need a scorer off the bench, hopefully they got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Yeah I think Vince would be a better fit for us between the 2. Good move for both sides. The Heat need efficient role players who are committed to defense and a team game. Not ball stoppers or guys who need the ball in their hands. If Mike Miller couldn't get it going in Miami, what makes you think VC will? There is 20 minutes MAX available behind Wade and LBJ - sorry, but no one is going to be able to be a consistent spark in that role... your best look is to find someone committed to defense and can stroke it okay... a Raja Bell type is a better pickup than a VC or T-Mac type. The Heat should be chasing big men who will have a role, not wings who will play 10-15 minutes a night in mostly useless time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
