Great Rondo nugget from Brian Scalabrine in upcoming 2008 Celtics documentary. Talk about being locked in on the scouting report!!
- There’s playing hard and then there’s this. Up 17. Less than 3 minutes to play. Game effectively over. MaCio Teague is out here deflecting passes, diving into the second row of the bench, then sprinting 60+ feet to contest a shot in the opposite corner. ELITE effort.
00:00 - “When you see your leader working extremely hard in practice, you feel like ‘Man, if I don’t give it my all, I shouldn’t be here.” -Horace Grant #TheLastDance
- Frank Martin 3 Rules: 1) Be on time. 2) If on time, be prepared mentally and physically. 3) If on time and prepared mentally and physically, give me all you’ve got. #GrowTheGame
- “If you’ve got a girlfriend but she won’t rebound for you, it’s time to get yourself a new girlfriend.” -Bob Knight
- Hurts is a great teammate and leader. And Tua Tagovailoa sat the bench all year, but clearly stayed engaged and ready. When his moment came, he delivered. Both behaved like champions before they were champions. And now...they’re both champions.
- “Everyone’s role will be different, but your status on the team will be the same. That’s what playing for something bigger than yourself is all about.” Kelvin Sampson
- Bad shots are the outlet pass that starts your opponent’s fast break.
- Jay Wright on Houston: “They literally play every defensive possession like it's the last possession of the game.”
- What a defensive possession! This is individual accountability and pride in guarding the basketball. ✅ Stance ✅ Active Hands ✅ Active Feet ✅ Guard Your Yard ✅ Closeout ✅ Level Off Drive ✅ Contest Shot
