    Someone posted this during the Clippers series, but I think the team needs to watch it again.

    The only thing is... that speech was about being the greatest team in the world for 1 night. They may beat you 99 times out of 100, but this night you are better.

    The Rockets have to win 4 in a row.

    Well, I disagree. These guys need to just try and not get swept tonight. They can worry about the rest of the series tomorrow.

    Great moments... are born from great opportunity. And that's what you have here, tonight, boys. That's what you've earned here tonight. One game. If we played 'em ten times, they might win nine. But not this game. Not tonight. Tonight, we ball with them. Tonight, we stay with them. And we shut them down because we can! Tonight, WE are the greatest basketball team in the world. You were born to be basketball players. Every one of you. And you were meant to be here tonight. This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearing about what a great basketball team the Warriors have. Screw 'em. This is your time. Now go out there and take it.

    How about this:

    "Just about everybody in the world thinks you are going to lose tonight including me. Nobody has confidence in you. Nobody likes you. Nobody believes in you. Are you going to let the media darling pretty boys (not Green, some of you have rear ends more attractive than his face) (but I digress) push you around? Steal the glory that belongs to you? End your season? Take from you all the work you have done, all the blood, sweat, and tears? They think they are better. They think you are weak and inconsistent. They think winning is their destiny, that you don't belong. Well, do you? Do you want to quit, give up, go home? Or do you want to shock the world and kick their butts, and flush those little rich kids out of the playoffs? Yes, they are better than you. Yes, they are prettier than you. But they haven't won the series yet. Don't let them! This is your time, your hour, your series. Go out and take it from them, make them whine, cry, and make excuses. Don't BE HISTORY, MAKE HISTORY!!!!!"
