Tracy McGrady "The Alley-Oop To Himself"

[taylortype]

did yall watch that he did this ish in rucker park and rockets practice oh yeeah and Charity game

[BadBoyMark1]

T Mac is the best! Nobody cant tell me different!

[bonziwells2k9]

@tizeltime08 coz they're not athletic enough to do that

[PowerBangz]

#I LOVE IT.

[RichieTheKing69]

How is this not traveling?

[MrSwatattack]

thing with this is as soon as u toss that ball up everybody turns their head and stop defending ^^

[reign80]

He invented that self ally opp.

[lovre1996]

T-Mac one of the greatest who ever play basketball

[ransom1down]

@the8310353 He played with Yao for one full season. Yao averaged 15 points that year in the playoffs. I wouldn't call that much help. Then Yao broke his foot and NBA career.

[bushyyATL]

the best part about this is when he throws it up, everyone on the court just watches him as he dunks it. private show for them haha

[TmacdaOne]

Tmac put on a cheat to this..

[ChokeYourChicken]

i think this might be the best fast break move in a 2 on 1 situation...i don't understand why more players don't do this.

[Flipswagg]

sick

[sactownism]

If T-Mac was never injured, he could have been probably the #2 player of his era behind Kobe. T-Mac would have been a one of the best for his size

[TheTruth232323]

@sactownism I agree T-Mac is one of the greats but the media always hate on him and never give him credit for anything

[UndergroundGrooves]

Who else has done this during a regulation contest? TMAC brought a new level of creativity to the NBA.

[TUBESTEAKNIG]

Dam 0:18 if that was in a real game it woulda been nuts. talk about balls I thought he was playing the mavs and did that shit with a full lane

[ransom1down]

Kobe had Shaq and others, wade hade Shaq, lebron had mo and Larry hughs, Kevin Durant has plenty of help. AI back should hurt a little to but he even had Larry hughes in his prime. Just saying t-Mac had darryl Armstrong and pat garrity. And they wonder why he couldn't get out the first round.

[The8310353]

@ransom1down

he had yao ming

[FPietros]

At one point T-Mac was the best basketball player in the world. (2002-2003)

Even better than LeBron is today and better than Kobe back then...

[hendibendi]

man he didnt do it when he was open i did it between people and it is sick!



[FookinLiam]

gotta love tmac

[ransom1down]

T-Mac was amazing ain't no could have been. The dude carried the magic to the playoffs and lead the league in scoring. Name 5 players that have done that in the past 10 years

[garchomp119568]

@ransom1down kobe bryant, dwyane wade, lebron james, kevin durant, allen iverson. t-mac is the shit! one of my favorite players, i hope he can win a title before he calls it quits

[yanm49]

and when kobe does this, he is a ballhog.

[skinderson]

do this ten times its a triple double

[garchomp119568]

@skinderson how is it a triple double?

[skinderson]

@garchomp119568 Its a rebound a basket and an assist. If you get ten points, ten assists and ten rebounds it's a triple double

[garchomp119568]

@skinderson im pretty sure you only get credited with the bucket and nothing else. it cant be a rebound and an assist because a rebound means its a missed shot. if anything it would be a bucket and an assist but not a rebound too.

[skinderson]

@garchomp119568 i no but its still cool!!

[garchomp119568]

@skinderson youre damn fuckin right its cool!!!

[The8310353]

@garchomp119568

it gets counted as a rebound, and a FG. so yeah they count it as a missed shot so these plays count as two shots

[10Killuminati]

I think you would just count this as just 2 points. They talked about it one time and they just gave t-mac 2 pts. Would be sick if it counted  as 2 pts 1 reb 1 ass tho lol.

[payneicecold3000]

This guy could have been AMAZING

[tizeltime08]

hahaha nash and dirk at 0:23...why the fuck cant we do that?!?

[KingAero123]

Does this count as:

- A missed field goal, an offensive rebound, and 2 points OR

- An assist and 2 points?

[TMacandKobe4real]

there will never be another silky smooth baller like T-Mac... he revolutionized the NBA doin shit like that and it may be other ballers that do this in the nba but not during a fuckin real game and not like Mac just like there will never be another VC... talk about keepin it in the family ya kno what i mean. T 4 3 X3

[talltime]

favorite player of all time just wish those injuries didn't get him

[WithYourOwn]

@talltime yeah by now he would be much better than kobe

[AznGotChen]

lol you need crazi athleticism and confidence to pull off a move like this

[MaxaMillion711]

VC did the oop to himself in 2000 @ Houston and then vs Bucks ... jus saying.

[TaylorAA23]

Sad how T-Mac was better than kobe but then the injuries just fucked him over bad......

Kobe 'Glorified T-Mac' Bryant

[M0rph1n]

damn he was a beast!

too bad someone invented injuries...

[BlackDynamiteNYC]

Vince did this in the All-Star game

He got it from T-Mac!

[TRENDSETTERSMAN]

tooo bad we don't see this shit in the NBA no more.

[MJRiley878]

@TRENDSETTERSMAN thats because they play D

[DannyJordison]

spectacular

[AkshunAffirmative]

man his career could be soooo much better than what it was...them damn injuries fucked em up. tmac coulda been one of the best closers and had about 2 or 3 rings

[dynamicfoe1]

Didn't know he did it so many times. WOW THUMB ups

[zeljkoSLO]

@dynamicfoe1

YOU FAIL!!!!!

[wafflestills]

this jus takes me back man, how i miss the old NBA, every new player sucks balls now

[iTzTYLA]

@coldthugz if it hits the back board or rim how could i possibly be a travel... Smh

[Jeeco157]

"¨°º¤ø„¸ GO PISTONS 11 CHAMPS! ¸„ø¤º°¨copy & paste

¸„ø¤º°¨ `°º¤ø„¸if you think PISTONS are going to be 11CHAMPS!!!

¸„ø¤º°¨¸„ø¤º°¨¨°º¤ø„¸¨°º PISTONS

[pandiev]

i miss that T-Mac

[BMac2307]

does anyone remember the mountain dew code red commercial with t-mac doing this dunk

[coldthugz]

travelling?

[damnstraightidc]

omg he did this so many times lol!

[ssun8]

Kobe totally jacked this from Mac....cept he doin this cuz he tryna avoid the D and just getting rid of the ball but still keeping it to him self....kinda looks like a ballhog last resort thing to me....and Kobe dont dunk it, but shoots it while catching the ball in the air instead...cmon tmac show Kobe how it's done!!

[agentaxe]

i was doing this when i played with friends and said it doesn't count!i'll kill them!

[StreetBallin12]

Is they alley-oop to himself counted as a missed layup with a putback or an assist to himself ??

[asiantofu011]

@StreetBallin12 it counts as a missed feild goal, +1 rebound +2 pts. no assist

[llannert]

thats an asshole move

[laepnud]

Let's be clear, T-Mac didn't invent this, he just had the biggest balls to do it first.

[timothyscottgilbert]

@laepnud and he done it in two allstar games!!!

[91Omerde]

@laepnud yes and he made that his signature move

[wwfsimulator1325]

@laepnud so he inventing do this is in a nba game.

[randomenzo]

how can someone not recognize this song :DD

[sammyborhap]

lol its almost like cheating its so easy. when he throws the ball up everyone freezes except him

[03skyrus]

i miss old t-mac ...

[AllenxIverson]

Point, Rebound, Assist

What more do you want?

Oh right, Steal. (Their confidence)

[DaKidASavage]

So does he get the assist along with the points?

[saxking101]

i coulda sworn vince carter did it first

[tas0666666]

I wonder if any team is willing to sign him for next season.. I can see him playing in miami alongside those 3 superstars.

[KobaineCityEnt]

@tas0666666 he's headed 2 detroit...sucks that he'll never have a chance to win the whole thing again...

[showbiz3mvp]

Tmac AI biggest wastes of talent ever

[TBDark1]

The Magic uniform he's using in the one vs the celtics. Those are the best Magic jerseys bring em back!

[sumdrumbum]

this dude sucks

[jakesum123]

sick

[saintsrow888]

"Dinner's Served"

[nhardman]

thatz nasty

[KH9Zb]

hoooly shit!!!!!!!! T-Mac 4EVER =)))

[Talataur]

It's funny how you see when tmac throws the ball everyone stops defending to rebound ... and then tmac can just run through the defense to dunk the ball down xD these players should really learn to box out instead of watching the ball fly :P

[kajo205]

@Talataur it's like they instantly froze. There's really nothing they can do, that move is so unusual the defense normally aren't always prepared for it.

[duce8585]

@Talataur some people are afraid of being humiliated if they tried and failed lol

[SomaalAkhi]

haha McGrady's a jerk ... one of my fave player still

[rel1rell]

vote t-mac for alol star game spread the word

[xDoP3KiD]

15highflyer to bad yu wrong.. vince did it after he saw t-mac do it vs the raptors.. he said ithimself in a interview.. he said "i saw tracy do it and i had to steal it"

[celticstruth]

wont lie, 0:23 got me off.

[Piotrasdabadman91]

tmac is the original SmoothCriminal

[Tmac4ever100]

Wish he comes back soon and owns every1 else

[Nitrokid217]

At 0:18 that's number five in DJ Clue's top 5 in-game dunks of all time.

[asskicker211210]

hes the best

[Fifa09Wii]

it always works too.. everyone is just like wtf and just watches to see if it will go in on the lob and then he dunks it

[15HighFlyer15]

"T-Mac was the first player in the NBA to invent the alley oop to himself."

WRONG!

I'm not just saying this because I love Vince, but he did it in his 47 pt. game against the Bucks.

But Tracy was the first to do it in the All-Star game tho :)

[Piotrasdabadman91]

ye but Vince did it to get out of a hard situation whereas Tmac did it more intensionally.

[15HighFlyer15]

which do you think is better creativity under pressure or just doing it for the fun of it..?

Each to his own..

[Piotrasdabadman91]

I like mac's better because it has a bigger exclamation point as it was a clearly thought-through decision although Carter probably suprised even himself with that play in Raps

[Tracywithafacey]

Tracys against the raps was better than vinces against the bucks

[15HighFlyer15]

different situation, different style, different taste.. They were both nice tho :)

[jmiquel07]

the best!

[shurturgal2]
