    this is my !st thread so don't hate

    i realized that whenever the rockets make a good play or good shot that make the fans jump out there seat...t mac is never pumped up or excited at all
    this really disturbs me because im thinking he is not really excited for is team

    i just want to get that out

    better play safe, if he gets excited, he might injure himself.

    I'm not hating but its kind of making a mountain out of a mole hill. He is injured so I really dont want to see him hopping around on the sidelines. I have seen him and Yao laughing it up on the sidelines so its not like he's separating himself from the team.

    I guess you missed the Dallas game when he moved the quickest he has moved this season when he jumped off the bench when Artest hit the 3.

    He's jumped up off the bench a few times this year.

    Yup,I caught that scene though.They both laughed it up.

    I love that T-mac sit on the bench rather than watch the game in the locker room or at home. :D

    if tmac claps too hard he might break his fingers. he should be in a bubble.

    I do like seeing excitement from bench dudes and staff, but injured dudes shouldn't really be jumping up and down... maybe just cheering the team in their own way is fine. :eek: Don't worry about it, man... it's not something to rattle your chain. Keep cheering on yourself.

    Remember Tmac has a bad knee? Which muscles and joints do you think are required to get off a couch or chair?? :rolleyes: It makes sense he doesn't "jump around" or "jump off the bench". Atleast he's THERE, and not at home watching it on the big screen.

    That's T-Mac. Some players just aren't the rah-rah type. I don't recall Michael Jordan, back in the day, cheering much for his teammates.

    I think that's a key point. Good call.

    Just watched the ESPN highlights, Tmac is in the background on all of them, he doesn't even clap for his teamates.....strange.

    Ive seen him cheer the Rockets on when he was injured. Just because it happened one time doesn't mean he never cheers.

    If he's clapping and jumping then some will say he should be playing. If he's smiling, he doesn't care. If he's not smiling, he's mad at teammates happiness. Is there a reason wy thread was dedicated to tracy's bench mood?

    I'm pretty sure this board could hate on T-Mac for drinking a glass of milk.

    It seems the guy can no longer do right by the fans.

    I'll always support him and every other Houston Rocket.
