Let's say you're Tari Eason. Let's say you're on the Houston Rockets in a critical game against the Golden State Warriors and have no chance of playing after undergoing season-ending leg surgery. Let's say your only job is to encourage teammates while not making their job harder.
Sounds easy, right?
Apparently, you would be surprised.
Eason became a topic of conversation from the bench Thursday after reporting for duty with a "Warriors, come out to play" T-shirt, a dig at the rallying cry the Warriors have appropriated from a certain 1979 movie.
