Mario Elie gave the team a Clutch City history lesson today

What about the Wolverine? He is all heart bro.

 

How can the Rockets play physical with the refs calling phantom fouls and techs against us?

Hope the NBA wants to extend this so the refs would be fair and honest.

 

You need to have that in you, people can give speeches and talk all they want, nobody's going to change just like that. For example, Harden is not all of a sudden going to play defense, attack the basket at will, move without the ball, dive for loose balls just because Hakeem or Elie speaks about being down 3-1. Those 93-95 teams had a blue collar mentality, from the star players down to the 12th man on the bench. This team has only a handful of blue collar workers.

 

A more motivating move may be to get the most negative excerpts from CF about each player and post them above directly their lockers...followed by STOP PLAYING LIKE A BUNCH OF LITTLE GIRLS!! STOP PLAYING SCARED AND PLAY WITH SOME PRIDE!!

......j/k sorta

 

Easy to say that now. Would you have written that about "Choke City"?

And I beg to differ, as some people need that motivation to stir something in them. Maybe this was just what they needed, at least for this game, if not for the series, rest of playoffs, or even their careers.

 

Yes! Don't ever underestimate the heart of a champion like Mario Elie!!!

 

So......if you ALREADY have that in you, like the team did in 93-95, then technically, they shouldn't have been down 3-1, right? Maybe when they started playing Defense, attacking the basket at will, moving without the ball, and diving for loose balls, they climbed themselves out of a 3-1 hole.

 

It looks like we have a non-believer. What do we say to those non-believers?

 

Don't ever underestimate the heart of a Champion....reference below.

I hope Mario inspires the bench to play better
Mario, Herrera, Bullard, Cassell were awesome off the bench

 

I hope history repeats it self!

 

James Harden does not have the heart of a champion.

 

I preferred Mario as a starter for our championship seasons. #Undefeated #In #Playoffs #As #A #Starter

 

Wouldn't your life be so much better if you were right? No. So STFU and drink from the cup! The koolaid will turn that frown into Chucky Brown. Wear a beard, it's not weird. Kevin McHale does not derail. His leadership is alright, just ask Dwight. The loss was Lin's, but all is forgotten with game 5, 6 and 7 wins! Be a man and be a real fan. Wear red because this team just ain't dead, fool.

Rockets Win! Rockets Win! Hallelujah holy sh__ it's all because of Jeremy LIN!!!!!

 

Thanks Mario.

Good to see the rockets bringing out true rockets championship players to encourage our team !

 

Except Harden, he's clearly immune championship heartitis ... and Parsons shot poorly...

 

Make this guy the new coach. His motivations obviously worked!

 

Except for Harden.... you know, the other half of our alleged "superstar" tandem...?


Did no one else in this thread see the game...?

 

Talk to them next game, fly him to Portland Morey!

Show them Clutch City footage of game 6.

 

Yes! THIS.


Also, when the rox are up by double digits - they need to keep up the intensity - Keep attacking the hole - don't settle for 3s and sloppy D!
