On the off day after Game 3, after the Hornets had fallen behind two games to one, Hornets coach Monty Williams showed his team The Battle of Kruger Park, a video that has been viewed more than 60 million times on YouTube but was still new to players such as Jarrett Jack and Carl Landry.
The team watched the entire clip, a video last more than eight minutes shot by tourists on safari who happened to catch a pride of lions attacking an African buffalo calf, interrupted by a crocodile crawling out of the water in an attempt to snatch the prey. Suddenly a herd of buffalo appears, stomping in to toss the lions aside and rescue the calf, which somehow survived the ordeal.
The Hornets responded by winning Game 4.
So what should we term the video? Motivational? Inspirational?
"It was corny," Hornets forward Carl Landry said. "Real corny."
