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…

    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

    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.

    I wonder how it actually sounded when Nelson said it would love to imagine it was the exact same wording and intonation

    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.
