McGrady had never made it past the first round in his NBA career. That is…until he joined the San Antonio Spurs for the stretch run in 2013. Following eight brutal first-round exits, the two-time scoring champion latched on with the Spurs after playing overseas in China during the regular season.

Appearing in six games for San Antonio, McGrady was unable to capture his first championship ring when the Spurs fell to the Miami Heat in the Finals in a historic seven-game series. He missed all seven of his shot attempts in the postseason.
