    You just don't get the whole picture do you?
    Right before the trade deadline... he is riding the bench because he blows against road teams..... looking happy while his team is getting destroyed.

    Really don't even care enough anymore to be mad about this. Thats more on the organization than the players.

    The people in favor of sucking meant for them to finally tank, not be 21-19 at this point.

    He's not laughing at the team sucking.... he's just shy.

    It's his shy face.

    I was ok with kmart in the beginning but I'm starting to believe he is used to being a bonafide loser being in sac all those years.

    I know, I was being facetious. The Rockets were too good to tank. Morey has drafted too well to do that. They would literally have to kick the ball out of bounds in order to truely tank. Too many teams are too bad. Everyone knows that whether they want to admit it or not. What are the Pacers or the 76er's supposed to tank too? What about The Nuggets or Portland? Those teams in the middle are all very well run teams who draft and aquire players well. They are all much closer to being good then are being bad.

    Kevin McHale needs to give a Brad Pitt from Moneyball moment where he storms the locker room and gives people **** for smiling/partying after losses. Losing sucks. You should NEVER be happy or even OK with a loss; that's how a losing culture starts.

    Who cares if he is laughing or smiling? People don't have the right to smile even in down moments! Seriously I don't want to see him on the bench looking like he is bout to hang himself...I personally like Martin but people on here put him under the microscope for anything

    because the majority does not get the meaning of this... look at it as a good caption of a moment in the game... don't give it too much interpretation.

    This. People seriously just love to create drama. It's simply amazing how people automatically assume the worst.

    This guy quit on us the minute he was traded (and then returned). It's quite obvious. I just hope he still has decent trade value left with his crappy play this year b/c he's definitely gone next week.

    LOL no PR there man. It's the truth. Besides, I'm still trying to apply as TWill's PR. I'm real good at Twitter and stuff.
