"Nov 14 Tracy McGrady missed his second straight game, a loss to the Lakers on Saturday, with groin and hip injuries. 'Every time I try to explode, there's a sharp pain,' McGrady told the Houston Chronicle. 'It's going to be a process that's going to be lingering around. Whether or not I can tolerate the pain, that's going to be the question.'

Views: McGrady remains day-to-day, and the Rockets have a back-to-back early in the week. With four games this week, it will be tempting to use T-Mac in your lineup, but we recommend that you strongly consider an alternative if he's got three or four games. T-Mac could easily sit both Monday and Tuesday before returning late in the week."
