Leslie Alexander, owner of the Rockets, says that the club will not trade Tracy McGrady.

"I don't think we're going to part ways with Tracy," Alexander said. "Everybody wants us to. We acquired a great superstar, and everybody wants us to trade the great superstar. You don't get superstars that often.

"Daryl (Morey, the Rockets' general manager) and I were talking this morning. We both discussed how great Tracy is in the playoffs. There's very few people who have the ability to step up their games in the playoffs, and he does. So we're not looking to run away from Tracy. I always thought he was injured and has problems. There will be more news coming out in the next couple days. He's a great player when he's healthy and a great competitor."
