Tracy McGrady


Was healthy all those years he led the league in scoring. His skills didn't diminish until his 30s.

No shite, his skills diminished because of his injuries. He never played a full season in his entire career. It was downhill at 29 for McGrady. He had an 8 year stretch averaging 26ppg then averaged 7ppg in 3 seasons to finish his career because he had the back of a 70 year old.

Meanwhile, old guys like Kidd, Nash, Pierce, Ray Allen, Andre Miller, Jason Terry, Vince Carter, Jamison etc continue on contributing well into their 30s. Could've been McGrady.

All of those injury prone guys I listed showed flashes of being great. So has Gordon. They just never maximized their full potential due to injuries.
