Damn.
Started crying and left in middle of his interview....
EDIT:
And you can hear some reporters laughing in background after he left and one of them singing a song about Tmac crying.
! I missed this??
Probably tears of embarrassment moreso than disappointment.
are you joking about the reporters? wasn't this in Houston?
**** those reporters.
Not joking. When NBA.com broadcasts the post game pressers live you can hear everything. You can even hear the reporters talking about their stupid lives in between interviews (when the podium is empty waiting for next person to arrive).
I don't know if Tmac should be embarrassed, it's not like he's Dirk.
hmm... Heh, I'll go check it out when they put it up.
You are kidding right?
Yeah i hate when reporters act like they have some moral authority over "arrogant athletes", when in fact, a big chunk of them are asswipes themselves.
Yeah before breaking down he answered the previous question with a lot of "I tried man, I really tried." Said that so many times, then for the next question he took a deep breath, started crying and said he couldn't do the presser anymore.
Yes I was just teasing, it's actually pretty sad.
McGrady scored 29 points and 13 assists in game 7.
T Mac didn't choke. He played a good game. Dirk never showed up.
T-Mac actually had a solid game. Just not a dominating game. The rest of the team pretty much sucked on offense. Yao was a defensive liability so he got neutralized. It is getting old but T-Mac needs a better supporting cast.
tmac played better today then dirk did all postseason
he's lost THREE series when his team has led by at least 2 games
When I saw the post game conference, I felt really bad for him, but still, I don't think he's really a "franchise" guy just yet.
I also don't buy into houston being a "bad team"
there is no excuse for these guys to not get past the first round.
Yes, T Mac is injured a lot, but I can't really call him a top 5 player by any means.
If you put t mac on the lakers, they wouldn't make the playoffs
i feel for tmac he obviously cared a whole lot about his team and making it out of the frist round and anyone who bashes him is a flat out ...same with dirk...they tried and so what if they didnt make it...its not like this means they never will...
God I feel bad for him. If they don't make some changes in the offseason I would demand a trade if I were him. He's a great player and he barely has any bad marks in his career behavior-wise. He doesn't care about after the 2nd round anymore, he just wants to get there.
Alston just chucks up shots, Howard and Mutombo are way out of their prime. Luther Head isn't amazing. The Rockets are not really a complete team. It's T Mac, Yao, and Battier. In the West that will make you lose because the teams who win are completely good.
oh don't get me wrong, he seems like a great guy, never arrogant, but i don't think you can only blame his supporting cast in this scenario.
He needed to challenge his teammates.
Which goes back to saying he isn't exactly a leader though a great talent.
No excuse why a player of his talent should still be stuck in rd 1
oh i don't think they're championship calliber, but for a team that consistently gets 50 wins in the power house west, they have to be able to get out of rd 1.
I think van gundy should take some of the blame too
I wouldn't lump in Dirk with Tmac.
Dirk's elimination game performance is pretty hard to defend. Dirk didn't try, or at the very least didn't go down swinging, like Yao and Tmac did.
