VIDEO: T-Mac takes 'rookie' lumps from Damian Lillard in hilarious new Foot Locker spot
Intentionally or not, Tracy McGrady created a bit of a stir this week when he was quoted in a Bleacher Report profile as implying that he could make an NBA comeback.
"The thing is, I can still go, man," McGrady said. " ... My body is still in shape. I can go." He was also quoted as saying, "I'm better than half the damn league, anyway."
He doused rumors of a potential comeback on his Facebook page Wednesday, but on Thursday he was hanging with Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard in a new Foot Locker Adidas ad.
McGrady talks about feeling young again, with his foray into the Chinese Basketball League having made a rookie out of him again. He's also reminded that being a rookie isn't always a bed of roses:
Big shout out to Lillard, too. Dude's got a deadpan delivery that'd make Gregg Popovich blush.
