“We made stops. We made plays. We did the things that winning teams do at nut-cutting time. It’s a hell of a job. I tell you this all the time: it’s about mental toughness, it’s about focus, it’s about will, it’s about fight. It was on display tonight.”

I thought he just had some gum on his shoe, so the bullfighter thing is better than that.

“The message has been similar, just be ourselves,” Mincey said. “Accept who you are. If you’re a hard-working guy that runs to the ball, don’t change your habits. Just stay yourself the whole time, stay the course and just be tough. It takes a tough person to do the same thing over and over and over and over.”

Here's another example of a player toeing the company line on habits and repetition and focussing on the play at hand. Good stuff.

What's it about again?

When bullfighters get in the ring, they sometimes stomp their feet like the bulls do. To reinforce the point that they're big and mean, too. Then they go out and slay the bull with technique.

You know the bull always loses, right?

No, the bulls win sometimes too.
