If that's the case, then swap out Derrick Rose & insert Ray Lewis.

“We’ve got to come back and go to work, to make sure we finish it next time,” Lewis said. “This right here makes us stronger. Let’s understand who we are as a team. Let’s understand who we are as men. And let’s make somebody smile when we walk out of here. We’ve got the opportunity to keep going, men. Let’s be stronger as a team, man. Let’s be who we are.”

-Ray Lewis

Leaders instill confidence, they don't accept failure. Everything about Kelsay's quote said, we go into games not expecting to beat the player lined up across from us.
