They've got to be the team that is aggressive. But don't expect much emotion from Bird until that happens. It's sort of my demeanor. I knew there was still time on the clock. You don't get too excited until the game is over.
Somebody has to keep a level head.
If you've got your coaches running and jumping around and the game is not over, bad things can happen. Bird put his team in position to even the series with substitution moves that have consistently clicked during the season. He's basically gone with a nine-man rotation in the series, giving Antonio Davis, Rose, Travis Best and Derrick McKey an average of at least 18 minutes each. In both playoff victories over Chicago, Best was on the court in place of Mark Jackson at point guard. Being a player in this league definitely helps.
