Kevin Garnett is the prototype for the NBA player of the future. He's already one of the greatest players to have played the game.
What a pathetic play from a pathetic human being.
Where else but the NBA could people like Bill Russell, Spencer Haywood, Ricky Barry, Dennis Rodman, and Allen Iverson come in and be allowed to be who they are?
Yao Ming is the best thing to happen to the NBA in a long time. He is just a beautiful person inside and out. The vision, the creativity, the gentleness of spirit … he has it all.
No one missed more basketball in the history of NBA than I did. I played 14 seasons, on the roster for 14 years, and I missed more than nine-and-a-half full seasons.
Everybody knew we were capable of playing better. I'm so proud of our kids. I can't say enough about their resolve.
The team seemed tired and lethargic (against Sacramento State) and not really mentally into playing that contest. I don't think we'll have that problem this weekend at all.

Winning and losing isn't important to me so much as playing to a certain level. If we play to the level that I expect our team to play at, we should have three victories this weekend.
We have to relax, play hard and make some critical plays when the pressure's on. Right now, that will be the most important thing. That was our weakness last year too.
For sure, it's the biggest test (we'll face) in September,
I don't know where they get all these trumped up charges. If they were putting everybody in jail that owed taxes, the jails would be really full.
I couldn't pass it up, ... You get excited. ... It's a very prestigious program.
