    Milk Hair's "play harder" strategy was so underrated it got him fired. ;)

    The Rockets must play harder in the 2nd half of this trap game.

    Silas will adjust in the playoffs or rather come up with counter moves more so than MDA ever did with the Rockets.

    my buds and i played a game once against a much younger team. we were lackadaisical and were getting skunked, so we decided to play harder. we ended up with 2 minor injuries to our team and still getting skunked, while i continue with my flopping.

    The rest of the quote is that he says they also went small and started switching more which is an adjustment.

    Some coaches are humble and defer.

    Enjoy the win and better defense lol.

    Yes, sometimes it is as simple as intensity and effort. However, I'm hoping Carlisle (a master of adjustments and planning) rubbed off on him come playoffs.

    Yes playing harder in combination with a deeper rotation than 6 1/2 men.

    When MDA did it he was preaching to old tired legs to play harder when they are gassed by playoff time. Hilarious.
