I thought the same exact same game 5 against Atlanta. That's exactly what they did for the first 4 minutes of the game lol

The above doesn't mean what I said won't happen.

I don't want my guys feeling loose and confident and energetic right before a big playoff game. They need to feel intimidated and stressed, just like me!

It's crazy to me how these NBA dudes play well in high pressure games at all lol. I don't even feel close to my max stress level and still I find my whole body is tense and clenched up. I'd be an absolute mess if I had to play a game like this.

As long as there is life, there is a potential; and as long as there is a potential, there will be a success! Get your hopes up, get your faith up, look up, and get ready to rise up. Setbacks and disappointments prepare you for greater success in life. Get ready to rise up out of the ashes. New levels are coming. LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone's different. I absolutely thrive in high pressure situations, the bigger the stakes the calmer I often get. I'm not trying to brag or anything and in my case it's in things other than sports, but I have had a number of high pressure situations. However if it's a simple task with no pressure that I expect to be easy and it's not going as simple as I expect, like ironing a shirt and I don't get it perfect straight away, I lose my **** :lol:

Wonder how much Grant we see in this series. He was actually pretty good in very limited minutes against ATL. Think he’s just driven enough people crazy with his antics to not play consistently

That 2018 series against them was one of my favorites ever. Let's do it in 5 again.

already got a half day vacation for tomorrow, as the game will probably end around 4:00 AM Central European Time. I do not want to be disappointed - just beat Phila guys.
