The more items they complete on this checklist, the higher their winning percentage. If at any point they are losing, it is because they are moving further away from checking certain items on this list. Consult your local homer for assistance.
At the half. Need to keep on pace to win it. Just pick up a few needed check marks in:
-extra hustle for those Tommy Points
-pushing our outrebounding up to 10 because the cavs won't stay at 37% after their adjustments
-need our bench to pick up Rasheed'ds slack for missing his check mark. Looking at you TA
-Keep on pace with meeting our goals we have checked
That's all I think we need to finalize a BIG game 5 win here in Cleveland.
