    You're right...

    His injuries are not fake, more like extremely exaggerated. He seemed to be having a great time on the bench for someone supposedly having back spasms.

    There is a 99.9999% chance he will be ready on Saturday @Dallas.

    Back spasms occur during physical activity. His not gonna have spasms sitting down and relaxing. Why would he not be having fun on the bench?

    Didn't Worrell say during the game that T-Mac kinda jokingly told him "day to day until Saturday" or something like that....

    610 dudes said the Rockets trainer said it's nothing to worry about and Tmac would have played if the game meant something.
    not only that, how many times was the camera on tmac tonight on the bench - the dude was smiling and laughing it up with Mike James near the end there. he seemed pretty relaxed and happy for a guy who jvg is saying may miss saturdays game.

    If he were truly injured, his demeanor would be much different; as in worrying about whether or not he's going to be ready for Sat. Even Worrel and Chancelor (?) were joking about him not playing.

    After I had back spasms, any small movement on the upper body will cause pain. What's your experience?

    Miami is doing the same thing with Shaq, saying now he may not be ready for the first round....

    When it comes to mind games, I will take JVG over Avery Johnson. In fact, the only coach I would take over JVG in that department --> Phil Jackson.

    Yeah I had a similar experience with back spasms...but I'm not a 20 something year old with less than 10% body fat like T-Mac. :D

    jvg is a superstitious guy and seeing as how mcgrady is probably actually hurt, van gundy is not the kinda guy who's going to say, "yeah he'll be fine for saturday." that's not his style and people should really know this by now. mcgrady's playing.

    this is almost as funny as the people who think the astros didn't sign beltran cause of the no-trade clause

    TMac and the old "one-day plantar fasciitis." Good think he's a quick healer. If you know what I mean.
