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

At halftime, the SuperSonics reversed their previously weak performance against the Lakers, delivering a striking in-game performance to the world.


The home-standing Lakers lagged behind with a 13-point deficit.


"Last time they met, the SuperSonics were without both Brandon Roy and Chris Bosh, and even with Frye scoring 64 points, they couldn't win the game. But tonight, the return of Chris Bosh has completely changed the complexion of the battle. Does this suggest that Chris's role in Seattle isn't as marginal as we thought?"


On ESPN's live broadcast seat, Mike Breen tossed a professional question to his former pro partner.


Mark Jackson admitted, "Chris definitely had a greater impact tonight than Brandon did."


Jeff Van Gundy, as a former pro coach, possessed a broader perspective than Jackson.
