He didn't have to do it. He didn't have to light a fire under this teams asses and get them to fight for each other. He could have just kept his mouth shut and let the Rockets unravel. Thank You Mo.
I just don't get those players - you stick a mic in front of them, they will come up with something unnecessary and stupid. Remember those "Kobe stoppers"? After a good game, or a few good possessions, someone will show up longing for attention. They will open up their big mouths, talking trash to team or players. Learn the TMac lesson, play your game, one game at a time, one series at a time.
The team could have just been ripping itself apart from within after game 4 but Mo made himself the focus of that anger. He's the lamb.
