From, “Heat Feel Bosh’s Absence in Conference Finals,” by
Howard Beck, 6/4/12, The New York
Times:
“He was our most important player,” Spoelstra said in a
pregame news conference Friday, and you could sense the muffled snickers around
the room.
Few took the statement seriously, in part because
Spoelstra,the Heat’s unfailingly self-serious head coach, is prone to broad platitudes and important-sounding
coach-isms, such as, “play to our identity,” a phrase he invokes about 15 times
per interview.
Platitude: a trite or banal remark or statement,
especially one expressed as if it were original or significant
