Don’t underestimate anyone who dares to fight.
“Never underestimate the heart of a championship,” this was what then Rockets head coach Rudy Tomjanovich said in 1995 when the team was not favored but finally won the championship. , now this sentence has become the most widely circulated saying in the NBA. Many NBA stars often use this sentence to encourage themselves and spur themselves on, in order to "keep the clouds clear and see the moonlight"!
The story behind:
This sentence comes from the mouth of former Rockets coach Tomjanovich. In the 1994-95 season, the Rockets began their own road to defending the championship. However, there are endless powerful enemies along the way, and the Rockets' lineup is in turmoil at the beginning of the season. Many people outside are not optimistic that the Rockets can successfully defend their title.
But they faced the Magic with O'Neal in the finals. They withstood the pressure of falling behind in the first game and won 3 consecutive games, and then sent the O'Brien Cup to Houston again. After the game, Tomjanovich said this classic sentence in an interview: "We have not been favored along the way. For those who do not trust us, I have only one sentence: Never underestimate a championship player." ”
