Coach Talk

GoBack2FootLocker
Hey, it's good to be confident, GoBack2FootLocker. It's a bold move to roll out a starter with zero points (Rashod Bateman), while still earning a win. All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be done.
