July 4th, Recently, McGrady participated in the TimelessSports podcast and talked about her previous remarks about "ring culture".

Host: "I think the core of what you want to express is: you can't belittle a player's career or talent just because he hasn't won the championship, because it depends to a large extent on the environment, right?"

McGrady: "This is always determined by the environment. Look, my four years in the Magic were exactly the same age as Michael Jordan when he was eliminated in the first round in his early years. We are talking about the best player in history. Jordan averaged 30 points at the time, and I also averaged 30 points. Why would this greatest player in history lose? Should he blame him? Should he blame him, or did he blame him for not having a good enough team? Right? And Kobe and Shaq were winning three consecutive championships at that time."
