This is a great explanation and reaction to my question. Much appreciate another opinion and view without looking to hang someone and paint it as me viewing something negative.
My post wasn't to be negative, I was looking for any rationale reason as to why the lack of excitement that he has shown before or similar to his teammates in the same moment. It was weird and not typical.
