Some exist with pride, others struggle with pride, some compete with pride, and there are those who fail with pride, but very few can walk away with pride. 
Congratulations, for as you read these lines, you have witnessed the whole lives of many great basketball players.
This pronunciation was embodied when Stephen Curry, after facing defeat in 2021, claimed that no one would want to face them the following season; When Tim Duncan was convinced before the start of the 2014 Finals that they would not mess up; When Kobe Bryant promised at Old Buss's memorial to take the Lakers to the playoffs; When Nowitzki, shedding his label as a soft player, retreated to the locker room in tears at night; When Kevin Garnett let out a skyward howl after holding the championship trophy; When the 2004 Detroit Pistons won and the F4 Lakers lost…

Our story begins in an era when pride still mattered.

Basketball Legend: When Pride Still Matters

Karl tried different lineup combinations to partner with Yu Fei.


For instance, during the closing stage of the second quarter, it would be expected that the Bucks would play their main lineup, as the Timberwolves were fielding their full-strength roster.


However, on the Bucks side, only Yu Fei and Sprewell were absolute starters, while the other three were Quentin Richardson, Christian Laettner, and Robert Horry.


Laettner and Sprewell both knew Yu Fei's disposition, but the other two were new signings that still needed to gel with the team.


As a result, one of them impressed while the other brought shocks.


Theoretically, a stretch four like Horry was the ideal player to pair with Yu Fei.


Up to this point in his career, Horry had never encountered a situation where he needed to set a pick and then spread out for a three-pointer; his value was mainly demonstrated beside Olajuwon and Shaquille O'Neal, providing them with spacing support.
