McGrady's art is a spectacle

1.When Tracy MeGrady is healthy,his play can be 80 beautiful that even his own teammates on the court cannot help but admire it in the middle of a game.

2.“It's hard for me, because I'm a fan of basketball,”Houston point guard Rafer Alston told the Houston Chronicle newspaper after MeGrady' s 44-point performance against Utah on January 5.“When he's shooting the ball like that,a lot of times 1 m standing there watching and,all of a sudden, the other team' 8 getting the ball and going on a fast break, and I'm getting yelled at by the coach.”Indeed, McGrady" s body control. his energy , his shooting- watching these are like watching an artist at work, blending colours, constructing sentences, or playing music.

3.Unfortunately, MeGrady,27，hasn't always been. on the job, Already this season, he's missed seven games with back spasms. After Yao Ming was, injured on Dee. 23. it appeared Houston would be without both of its stars. MeGrady，however ,returned three days later and has been playing well ever since . scoring more than 30 points in

each of the last six games,as of Tuesday. Houston can't seem to get on without him. When MeGrady was injured, the Rockets won two and lost five.

4."Listen,there are. only four or five people on the entire planet that can do the things he can do with the basketball, ”forward Shane Battier said of McGrady. “From a fan's perspective - and we're fans even though we're players- it's rally fun to watch him do that. From a player's perspective,his game can affect the entire team. No question. We see him, .and we get excited,and that pumps us up. He keeps making shots ,and suddenly it seems to become easier for everybody. '

5.But it won't,really. Houston has just begun an important stretch on their schedule. Four of the next seven games will be played away from Houston- and without Yao. Six of the games will be against teams with winning records. Opponents will double- team McGrady in an attempt to dull the. impact of his art. Instead of watching.

McGrady's teammates will need to create a little art of their own,
