We Reminisce: Tracy McGrady dumps 62 points on the Wizards

Grant Hill owes T-Mac some money, a hug, or something. Looking at Mac’s supporting cast during his run with the Magic — without the addition of Hill, who was supposed to be the #1 in Orlando’s 1-2 punch — it’s no wonder he had to lead the League in scoring just to give his team a chance at being successful. On March 10, 2004, McGrady served the Wizards a career-high 62 points (plus 10 rebounds and five dimes), carrying a squad that included guys like Juwan Howard, Tyronn Lue and Andrew DeClerq playing prominent roles. In the process he broke Shaq’s franchise single-game scoring record.

    I remember this game- He was killing the Wiz but Gil put up like 40 something

    I remember arguing with catz about who was better Mac or Kobe during his Orlando run

  2. ERIC says:

    TMac should have never left Orlando

  3. ERIC says:

    and they had the #1 pick right before he was traded. could have been TMac and Dwight!!

    Orlando?
    That dude shoulda never left the T-Dot

    Vince, T-Mac, CB4 coulda been the real big 3
    Vince and TMac coulda taken turns tankin while the other guy did work

    k dizzle- if tmac stayed with the raptors, they would have never have gotten bosh… plus VC is a cancer, and Bosh wouldn’t have developed if VC stayed… Raptors have a better future than VC and the Nets

    Just think though pimps, imagine if once you got on a team you had to stay. For real no trades. Perhaps Dime will write it up and let us speak on it.

    Granted my Rockets wouldn’t have T-mac if that was the case. Still some teams would be loaded or would have been loaded if trades didn’t go down.

    I love this though, cause you can say whatever you want about T-Mac now, but at one time, dude was top 5 in the L. Gettin it done!
    Injuries are something else boi!

    ahh yes good times.. haha Gilbert n Larry. this was when we first had them in the same backcourt. n T-Mac decided to go LeBron on us..[Mac was my fav player in the NBA from 2001-2005] basically his Orlando days. i remember when he got traded..i was at disneyworld that summer or that day….T-Mac became a different player but i never really liked the Rockets..just respected them. and Orlando got screwed in that deal. n plus they woulda drafted Dwight Howard. MANNN!!! dat wud be sick. but still T-Macs still in good hands with Yao..but really whats a better combo

    T-Mac/Dwight
    T-Mac/Yao

    McGrady was LeBron before anyone even knew who he was…

    I remember watching this game at Larry Flynt’s Hustler Club in New Orleans. Alternating between looking at the stage and up toward the flat screens, was a good night.
