He came in the game multiple times at the end since the spurs had a lot of blowout wins on their way to the finals

He should’ve stayed in Toronto
yall nikkaz weird. talking about tmac dont deserve to be in the hall of fame. hes a two time scoring champ. nba lets anyone in. but tmac is where you want to draw the line... makes no sense
tmac was nice and in that era the only talent bettering him was kobe. we can talk about his health and not being fortunate to make it out the first. but he was a certified baller and is a certified hall of famer.
you lot have spent too much time in the social media era and cant appreciate shyt anymore.
same shyt with steph the first few games nikkas couldnt wait to shyt on him to have a take. yall enjoy talking about basketball more than you enjoy watching and playing. stfu and enjoy yourselves

T-Mac was a special talent and one that we may never seen again but I gotta give him a pass somewhat based off his Orlando days. Grant Hill and T Mac didn’t play more than like 50 games together during they’re time together. nikkas talk about A.I having a mediocre supporting cast during his run to the finals but T Mac would kill to have the team AI had.
Then when he got to Houston, He and Yao couldn’t gel because of injuries once again...And after while Yao became they’re #1 option even though TMac was clearly the better player but by ‘08 he was pretty much finished.
As for T Mac getting in the HOF, I think he deserves it but i understand the argument of him not being worthy. He had an extremely short prime if you really think about it and while his numbers during those prime years was incredible, it didn’t lead to much success in the playoffs.
Then you factor in him coming straight outta high school and not having a resume in college before entering the league and in Toronto he didn’t come out the gate on fire like Vince did.

Against Detroit, Tmac struggled once the Pistons started putting Tayshaun Prince on him midway thru that series.
Saying "oh if he was up 3-1, he shouldve won" doesnt hit for me. As soon as they starting playing Prince, Detroit became a whole different animal.
The series against Utah was there to be won in 07, up 3-2. He played like some shyt in Game 6 though. He had a good (not great) game 7, but they lost primarily because Yao's slow ass turned Carlos Boozer into Moses Malone 2.0.
But still thats are when superstars are supposed to "elevate", so I cant knock anyone who holds this series against him (I dont personally)
With that said, I would say out had the worst supporting cast of all time for a superstar.

Do you realize the amount of shyt this guy took for this one moment for the rest of his life?
Bron took shyt for losing...IN THE FINALS
Chuck took shyt for losing...IN THE FINALS
CP3 took shyt for losing...IN THE 2nd ROUND
Giannis has taken shyt for losing...IN THE 2nd & 3rd ROUND etc
You mean I’m supposed to be baby an uber talented superstar who couldn’t win one game to get his team out of...the first round?????????
I’m sorry
