“When I’m watching the NBA Finals and Shaq fouls out of that game, and Kobe took over, I’m running around my house going crazy watching my dude take over this game,” McGrady said on Wednesday, via “Gil’s Arena.” “That’s when I was like this motherf***er arrived, he is that dude.
“So when I’m watching him at that time, I’m not looking at him to be a sidekick or a second option. I’m looking at him like he’s that dude.”
