Al Harrington once tried to give a hyped, motivational speech to his team before a big elimination game: “After I got finished, Nellie [head coach Don Nelson] was like ‘Man, nobody wanna hear that shit.’ “😄

That’s some team chemistry shit.
Sometimes I wonder if “team chemistry” for pro sports is just hoping nobody is an asshole for no good reason…
*Brooooother this guy stinks!*
only played one elimination game, and they lost by 13
AK47 with a 21/15
Baron, Jason, Stephen all going 1/7 each from three lmao D-Will with a 1/11 for 2 points
motivational speeches seems like high school/college stuff
when you’re a pro, you know what to do, you know whats on the line
Nellie was right
also why CJ Stroud meant well, but just keep quiet

Not everyone gets a speech.
1) Al is insanely funny. His episode of All the Smoke had me crying laughing multiple times.
2) AK-47 put Captain Jack in a fucking blender that whole series. The fact about the We Believe team is that they literally won and lost based on if he played well. BD was the frontman, but Stak was the key.
3) Nellie is a legend. Any story about him is usually classic.
Don Nelson is the realest one
I wonder how it actually sounded when Nelson said it would love to imagine it was the exact same wording and intonation
Hi, I’m Al Harrington, President and CEO of Al Harrington’s Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man Emporium and Warehouse!
“Coach is wrong… it’s on us”
too funny
Saw Don Nelson getting topped off in driving in a convertible in 2009. Legend
After seeing a couple of Jeff Teague clips, I imagine that’s how he would be if he was a coach.
That laugh was so awkward for me to watch
Too f-ing funny
oh hell yeah feed me this comment section baby. #ak47
