Shane Battier Pre-Game Speech from game 4 against Lakers

[RipJD56]

not that insperational

[guitarsANDcars39]

@RipJD56 cuz u don't have heart

[MrsTwilightFanpire]

that's Clutch the Bear Rockets mascot

[aznwangsta995]

bear at 0:14

[dougchristie13]

LOL on a segway

[Carolinas42]

Weak!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Listen to Ray Lewis or Brain Dawkins if you u really wanna listen to a pre-game speech

[NJSportsFan1]

thats football its a different atmosphere

[USA1Rockets]

@Carolinas42 its not what you say is how you prove it, battier went off after his accordion to you weak speech..

[Carolinas42]

@USA1Rockets I dont care how he played, the speech is supposed to pump everybody else too, that was weak it had no passion

[USA1Rockets]

@Carolinas42 the rockets won lol period.

[Carolinas42]

@USA1Rockets Yup but not the series....

[USA1Rockets]

@Carolinas42 well he didnt do a speech every game

[Konformation07]

@Carolinas42 It's not about he spoke clearly so the team can listen to what he is saying and not too busy being pumped up.

[Carolinas42]

@Konformation07 Its not about what? ok the point of a pregame speech is pump everybody and motivate them, yo do you even play sports?

[Konformation07]

@Carolinas42 I play more than you know and I have had to deliver pregame speeches. I don't need to raise my voice and be loud. You get your message across and they need to know what they need to do. I don't want to be loud, boisterous and obnoxious. IMO, that just gets everybody going and they can hear my message I'm saying to them.

[MMCC2009MM]

bear at 0:14 haha

[emmanuelb]

houston has found its captain

[cripset99]

ahahah that was GAYY! lol

go listen to tashard choices speech nd compare that to this ahahaha

[KTeezy707]

The only comparison I can make is that Shane was composed, to the point, sensible, and Choice was crying, saying bruh and man a lot, and not making very much sense. Sorry "bruh".

[JAMMYbeast]

that was pathetic. Sorry, im a football player

[himynameisjohnny77]

right after this he had like idk 13 in the first quarter??? that was a great game

[kelvinchau2000]

the clutch bear behind the crowd is very cute!

[nbachamp28]

Go Rockets Too bad They Lost

[goduke31]

Battier is the man... as evidenced by this youtube username...

That said, how funny is the mascot rolling (looking completely lost) at 0:15 !!! Too good

[abnuridd24]

.......ok how on earth did you notice that lol

[thinkpico]

LOL, right, but when i looked back, it was so random and hilarious, he just stared both ways like goduke31 said, he looked completely lost.. on his segway (the vehicle he was on)

[h4z]

bahahah I just noticed it. Good find.

[TheBostonThreeParty1]

These Rockets have come a long way this season

[Buskola]

great hand work on kobe, go rockets

[rApMoN14]

leaders are born

[gabrielusa911]

lol battie is so white.. good speech

[NallePu83]

3-3

Christmas in may!

[ldc62]

Maybe he should do this everygame.

[nitsud85]

nothing else matters cause Lebron and the cavs are taking it all

[ldc62]

We'll c.. they swept 2 bad teams.

[marcaaron28]

Soft Speech!

[vaaggie]

LMAO at the mascot on the segway in the background @ :16

[Guner360]

hahhaahahhahahahah really hahha

[thejpx]

Haha Artest obviusly isnt buying Battier's shit ya?

But Battier...... A CLASS ACT.. hands down

AND WHO THE HELL's THAT FINGER MASSAGING ARTEST?!?!?

[Prycers]

gay

[SUPERASIANMAN10]

0:15 LOL in the back the mascots in the hallway 2 GO BEAR!

[qclakers]

lmao so random

[danielXlee]

lmao

[aofoyayo]

von wafer in the corner like when the hell can i get out of here......

[dwaynewadesucks]

What do Rockets and Nuggets have in common

1) They've made it past the first round for the 1st time in the 21st century

2) They both get playoff exits by the Lakers

[TheCordlessOne]

Too bad they lost...

This is a great series tho. Cant wait to see who moves on.

[dwaynewadesucks]

Rockets won Game 4.

[ldc62]

They won that game dumbass.

[jimmaa66]

hahaha 1.2.3 LOSE

[chigaderu]

I'd rather let Artest do the pre-game speech because he is the so-called leader especially since T-Mac and Yao is out

[blackghost10sg]

come on! Battier is the heart and soul of this team.

[redsox0717]

battier is actually coherent and doesn't use ebonics because he is half black and half white, like Obama.

it's amazing how the smart black people are always the ones that are half and half, goes to show you how stupid the average black people are.

[b1ak47]

white people + Youtue = Racism

See, I'm smart.

[eckodenim]

i'm half and half too =D

[chrisok115]

what???redsox huh..more like redneck! your claim has no facts but just a stupid false genaralization. but one claim though that does have facts; is that you are definitely the most stupid youtuber that has ever made a comment on here and my fact is just by the extremely stupid comment you just made.

[jedidude75]

Shane is really smart, he really does speak well lol.

[esp139]

indeed the they are. there tallest starter is 6 ft 8in so they are surely done. LAKERS '09!!!!!

[XblisterXexistX]

LOL dude ur fucking stupid nuggets 09 for sure

[neoking77]

tour stupid

[BasketballSamHouston]

If the Rockets pulled a huge upset and advanced to the Western Conference Finals by beating the Lakers, I would feel like we won a championship and wouldn't care if we got swept by the Nuggests.

[nev3rh00d]

problem is Yao is out. so are rockets.

[Tsiknopempt]

well he is a leader as well as very humble, and along with that the best defender in the league.. so ya when u get as smart as him to get a scholarship for duke and know half the basketball he does, instead of just being a loser at youtube come back and comment

[thehoangster]

Technically Yao is the leader, and Shane knows it. but i dont think Yao can give a motivating speech like that. The team needed those words, better from Battier than Yao.

[jedidude75]

If yao did it he would be like

WE NEED WIN

IT IMPORTANT

LAKERS GOOD TIME

WE LIKE DO WORK AND THIS WHAT WE WAIT FOR ALL YEAR LONG SO SAY YEAR

[louiemachine04]

lol. hahah

[zelda975]

wtf???

He is really good at english you racist.

[RetarddHater]

... if you watch his interviews, you'll know his english is probably better than a star wars geek like yourself.

[jedidude75]

If you read my comments, I wasn't saying anything bad about Shane. I complemented him that he was quite smart. You really should read before you comment on YouTube.

Seriously, don't be a retard.

[ldc62]

HAHAHAAH what is a star wars faggot like urself doing posting comments on NBA videos???

[jedidude75]

Wow, shows how ignorant you are. I probably know more about the nba than you ldc62.

[ldc62]

Im ignorant? Yea sure u kno more bout the NBA than me... U prolly dont even kno when the frist game was played. Seeing as how ur prolly a Lebron James cock sucker, u prolly wont kno what a travel is either. JEDIDUDE

[jedidude75]

rofl, I hate lebron. Kobe is my main man. Oh OK. Whatever you say, I think I'll go look up all that stuff on Wikipedia because I don't know what they are **COUGH COUGH**

[artery44]

yao was there

[EyeOfRabbit]

lakers take it in 6.

[TheBostonThreeParty1]

Rockets want the Lakers to get cocky again so they can blowout the Lakeshits again.

[TheBostonThreeParty1]

Rockets just happy with being down 3-2

[K3BANG]

lmfao @ mascot on a segway in the gack ground

[cjsaysnooo]

rofl. thats awesome.

[broniuzz]

good one :)

[JDMboostedUnicorn]

i know you meant background but i thought gackground was funny. lol i can't stop laughing.

[tehmethod10]

i bet shane didnt have a pre-game speech for game 5

[pbergeron2]

yeah prob not

[JeBagh]

however, lakers will win

[clazier]

the series is not yet over anything can happen

[creach805]

come on guys! let's go right on out there and give them the buisness!

[WTCmothafucka]

40 point blow out tonight

[awiih]

Lakers will beat Houston in 6.

[guruhonza]

I'd like to say, that it was fun, when after last match, there were full pages of messages like "Lakers sucks, houston will always destroy you" and today LAL destroyed Houston... where are you cool Houston fans, mmm ?

[bigsoccer17]

respect...

stop talkin about game 5 its over game 6 is gonna be rockets all the way

[xmailmanbiterx]

shane is a great man

[wenchmariano]

i laughed when i saw the rockets mascot pass by. hahaha i dont know why

[TheSiIencer]

too bad Houston lost by 40 points huh.

[Merkfest3000]

wackdud

[IamHaddy]

uhhhh, read the title...GAME 4, not 5, 4

[NallePu83]

It`s not over!

[90dmswo]

show some respect guys

[ef24kobe]

rofl owned in game 5

[greenandgold13]

lakers should blow out EVERY team. theres no reason why they dont.

[lambofgodfan6661]

let's do this man

[DamuEmran]

shane is half black and half white

Shane and Artest are the leaders of the team now. Did anyone read the ESPN article on the rockets today. Shane is a great leader

[fuckyoumentally]

lol personally i think chuck hayes got great defence

[gorssathe]

fuck him

[bxbun12]

battiers the man, i try to learn his defense.

[miller626]

fuck him

[WoWrIcHdUdE]

ME WANT WAFLES!

[WeaselVideos]

Its our game baby, the Lakers will finnaly lose to a team that is a lower seed. Dont underestimate Houston

[Triksta6]

amen to that baby!

[JayTheSex]

I do like Battier.

[beneng43]

sounds like dave chapple when hes trying to be white

[getmein567]

ROFLLMAOO so true man

[Ascension100]

[ktm5800]

[tommy7113]

[Ripley01]

[getmein567]

lame speech didnt hype me at all

[4048888]

cause u fking dumb

[Residenthalo]

Lakers in 6

Lul@people who give me thumbs down for stating the truth.

[kaetha01]

This crap

[boonenyu34]

why the hell hasn't anyone commented on that mascot that came driving by on the Paul Blart: Mall Cop Segway about 16 seconds in?

[mfastx]

LOL

[DwyaneRoy]

wow hes super white...I thought he was like mixed or something

[zelda975]

He is half black and half white.

His color seems to change sometimes, he looks darker one day and then he is whiter the next. It is pretty weird.

[jwong1983]

zelda975

its called, tanning...

[zelda975]

No it's not like the color of tanning, he gets like african black sometimes, I don't know how to explain it.

[SmoothBurna]

use words...

[JLTRAIN233]

Thats why they won

[bboyhap]

definately not a great speaker

[IHYDdimo]

I am a huge Lakers fan (even through 2004-2007) but find it hard to hate Shane Battier. He does the little things, is articulate, and knows his role. Hard to knock that.

[FreshZerglings]

Shane Battier is the nicest guy in the NBA. Seriously this guy is a role model! He's great

[A24Butta]

ive been a lakers fan for 11 years...and i never wanted to see them win so bad...

[TheAssgas]

shane is one of the more articulate ballers in the nba. class act.

[CJAEY]

%50 of laker fans are actually laker fans

I hate bandwagoners, you fkers got raped so bad anyway

[CaptainDHughes]

i agree. same here with cavs fan. they just jump on. it happens more with celtics fans though. but there are REAL fans out there. dont get me wrong.

true cavs fan since '01

[JRichh24]

true laker fan since 96

[SmoothBurna]

lakers since 05

[afrosoda]

Lakers since 98 or 97, i forgot lol

[nastyblock]

go rockets finally somthing to watch....the basics are back baby no divas just blood and sweat...

[JPSensei07]

lakers not gon advance

[IanNikko95]

LAKE SHOW IN 6

[penhamster]

sigh lakers rule

[xSouIReaper]

I want to hear Yao give a speech.

[whycantyoudunk]

lol

[cyclotane]

i wanna hear dikembe make a speech.

NOBODY CLIMBING MOUNT MUTOMBO OK? ONE TWO THREE FINGER WAG!!!

[SmoothBurna]

I LOL'd...

[radmann17]

To bad Lakers are guna kill em =)

Go LAKERS!!!

[Aerwiar]

SHHHAANNNEEE there we go son

RESPECT

[ace10original]

LAKERS FTW

[KingKurteous]

Thats my boy Shane steppin up

[teeharristee]

why is HE giving a speech!?

[IGNMadMasher]

Because he is.

[teeharristee]

HE sux!

[UnrivaledShogun]

@teeharris

Because Yao he's injured, McGrady is injured, and Ron Artest doesnt seem like that much of a leader. That leaves Shane Battier.

[teeharristee]

that's a much better explanation then "because he is"

[sydney12123]

hope rockets win....eaasier 4 denver or cavs =)

[jmjavier25]

lakers#1

[theprofessor23]

Denver Vs. Rockets

NBA West Final's

[UnrivaledShogun]

@the professor

Rockets won game 4 off emotion. Emotion can lift a man, but it can also weigh him down. Rocket will get blown out in game 5 and lose by single digits in a close game 6.

[clickpick92]

holy shit, they really are getting blown out in game 5 right now

[UnrivaledShogun]

@the professor

what did I say? I told you Rockets will get blown out in Game 5. Still think it will be Denver vs Rockets for WCFinals?

[pauljeff85]

he had a great game same with with brooks

lakers in 7

[brighty260]

third?

[dombecenti]

second

[streetball4l]

firsttttt

[random8833]

[streetball4l]
