Silent Love

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

In the last four minutes, the score was 14 to 6 between the two teams.


This overwhelming result crushed the Celtics.


The SuperSonics defended their home court, leading the series 2 to 0.


ESPN's Mike Breen said, "The SuperSonics might have played their last home game of the season."


"I think we have found a way to win," Rivers said in the least confident tone that hinted at the most confidence, "We will definitely beat them at home."


Rondo was more realistic than his coach, knowing how much losing this game would impact the team.


"Before we can conquer them, we have to put our bones back together," Rondo said, "I just don't know if we are still determined to endure the agony of being crushed to pieces."


Defense was the Celtics' last trump card, but the SuperSonics' defense was also strong.


If both teams are good defensively, then if one team's defense is even better, the game will inevitably come down to offense.
