Whos is better out of tracy McGrady and Dwyane Wade? That was the text message war that i had with two of my closet friends just a day ago. The player is Tracy McGrady. Sure, naysayers will say that Wade has the ring and McGrady does not, however McGrady has had to play against tougher playoff teams and did not have the benefits of having an angry Shaq hungry for a championship. Although their statistics are similar, T-Mac has done it more and has been an All Star almost twice the rate as Wade. If we want to get into scoring, McGrady has won two scoring titles in his career and has averaged 32.1 points in one season before. Wade's highest is 27 almost 28 a game. So we know McGrady is a better scorer. When we talk about jump shots, we know McGrady is better. For example Wade shoots a deplorable 28% from three point land and McGrady is 34 % for his career, which means he has more range.In addition McGrady strength allows him to go to the post and score as well. Wade on the other hand has never went into the post during his NBA Career. Something else that should be noted is that McGrady average a rebound more than Wade despite playing less minutes. My favorite stat is that McGrady played in 20 more games than Wade last year, yet turned the ball over less. Wade had 216 to McGrady's 213. The story is similar this season as well. McGrady has played in more games than Wade and Wade has twice as many turnover as McGrady right now. Defensively they both are nothing special. So the edge goes to T-Mac the man who is carrying his team currently to a 19 game win streak and the man responsible for his team just being halg a game out off the No.1 seed in the Western Conference which includes the Lakers and Spurs.
