“We’ve got to make up our minds right now,’’ Pierce said. “This is a weird time to be talking about with nine games to go in the season. This is the type of stuff you talk about at the beginning of the year. We’re about to get into the playoffs and we shouldn’t be talking about this stuff. It’s just mental, how bad we want it going into the playoffs. We can’t think about what happened last year and ease into the Finals. That’s not going to happen this year.’’

Last year, Doc and Danny admitted to "coasting". This year, both of them claim that the team is not coasting. They're just losing game after game after game.

This is a blatant lie. Do you have a link?

They may have said something along these lines during the playoffs or after the season but they definitely did not say this during the season.

They would never say something like that during the season and thats why Doc isn't using it as an excuse this year cause it's  a stupid thing to say.

If we didn't go as far as we did last year no one would say we were coasting. We'd be saying we just weren't that good

  • Let them hate, as long as they fear
We are a year older, more tired, less hungry, more complacent, more beat up and our opposition has gotten stronger.
And someday in the midst of time,
When they ask you if you knew me
Remember that you were a friend of mine

And with all that we are still in a better position than last year and with 10 games left still have a realistic chance of getting the 1 seed
