You really can t do it. McGrady expressed that he has no championship in his career because his teammates are too weak. If he joins the Lakers, he can win the championship.

In NBA history, there are too many strong teams, but even though they have entered the All-Star many times in their careers and won various honors, they still cannot touch the championship trophy. For example, among the active players, Harden, Westbrook, Paul, and Lillard, among which Harden and Westbrook were also the NBA regular season MVPs.
Not long ago, former NBA superstar Tracy McGrady's remarks on a show sparked heated discussions among netizens. When talking about the "champion culture" that James denied before on the show, McGrady said that such a phenomenon does exist. Because since the development of the league, there have always been strong players who have failed to win the championship. It is not that they are weaker than others, but that they are more unlucky.
And his above remarks are still objective, but the following words have caused many fans to deny them. McGrady then used himself as an example to show that those league stars did not win the championship, because the team overall did not reach the championship level. For example, if he replaced Kobe in the "OK" group at that time and partnered with O'Neal, he could win the championship himself.
Then McGrady continued, unfortunately, he had never had such an opportunity in his career, and even if he wanted to stand up at certain times, it would be useless, but all fans should not belittle his strength just because he did not have a championship.
It is true that McGrady's personal ability once belonged to the TOP level in the league, but the remarks he made were not recognized by most fans. As a player who was selected with the ninth pick in the first round in 1997, McGrady was still a high school student when she entered the league, which is enough to show her potential for superman first place.
After the Raptors' hiding for three years, McGrady, who came to the Orlando Magic, finally ushered in an explosion. In his fourth season of his career, he averaged 26.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.5 steals per game. At the same time, two years later, he averaged 32.1 points per game to win the league's scoring champion. The next year he won this award with an average of 28 points per game, which is also the most glorious moment in his career.
Later, he formed the well-known "MM" combination of the Rockets. In fact, at that time, McGrady's physical fitness had already declined. Due to long-term impacts of back spasms and injuries, McGrady's style of playing with the Rockets is no longer so explosive. But even so, in his first four seasons of playing for the Rockets, he was still the top striker in the league.
Throughout his career, McGrady made the All-Star seven times and was selected for the All-Season 7 times, and in 2017, he became a member of the NBA Hall of Fame. But even so, if Kobe, who was the Lakers during the three consecutive championships, might not be able to win the championship. This is mainly because McGrady has shortcomings in both aspects.
is his defensive attitude. Speaking of which, McGrady, who is over 2 meters tall and has an arm span of 2.18 meters, should have a great advantage in defense compared to Kobe, but he has never entered the best defensive lineup in his career, mainly because his attitude is too lazy. Since entering the league, McGrady has always done a good job in top defense, but when changing defense and assisting defense, he always shows an unpositive attitude, and this will allow his opponents to get many opportunities to score easily in the game.
The second point is that McGrady's personal spiritual attributes are not as strong as Kobe. Of course, throughout his career, McGrady's teammates are not as strong as Kobe, but he has not successfully led the team to the second round of the playoffs throughout his career. This is something that has been criticized in his career.
In the early days of the Magic, McGrady was surrounded by a healthy Grant Hill, and when he was in the Rockets, Yao Ming was around him. But even so, there was always a big lead in the first round of the playoffs and was turned around by his opponent. For a real leader, this was not qualified, so if Kobe was replaced by McGrady during the "OK" combination, the Lakers may not be able to win the championship in the end. Do you think McGrady could win the championship successfully when she went to the Lakers’ partner O'Neal? Welcome to leave a message for discussion!
