Yeah, you certainly, you addressed the elephant in the room, right?
So my message was very clear.
This is the NFL, right?
There's a reason my name tag, it slides out, right?
It's not in there permanently.
So nobody cares.
Just work harder.
The comparison I gave them was where we're at just as a team, right?
And as a defense, I go...
I compared Nick Anderson.
I'm aging myself now.
I compared Nick Anderson in like the 1995 NBA Finals game one against the Rockets where he misses four free throws in a row and they go on to get swept.
And from there, like his career kind of fizzled.
Unfortunately, I don't know Nick, but his nickname was became Nick the Brick Anderson.
But I just remember how good he was as a player.
And then I contrasted that with Kobe in his rookie year when they were in the playoffs and he shoots four air balls, right, in critical situations.
I go, well, here's where we're at from an adversity standpoint.
All right, got guys being traded, right, speculation, all those things.
I go, you can either be Nick Anderson and we can wallow around in self-pity.
I go, or we can just figure out why we're where we're at, keep trying to get better, which I think our guys have done, right, to date.
