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

Regardless of Chris Bosh's injuries or the trade deadline this season, their follow-up effects will not alter the pattern of the season. Only the team itself will experience issues.


The Clippers, as the most watched team, their first task is to maintain focus.


For small-market teams, this is simple.


If there isn't much entertainment off the court and the local media isn't too appealing, then naturally one wouldn't be distracted by things outside the game.


But playing in Los Angeles, that's extremely difficult.


A small incident, which might not draw any attention in other teams, would become significant and analyzed from various angles if it happens within the Los Angeles team.


Oh, the GOAT doesn't like him; he can't stay in the Clippers.


Oh, Yao doesn't want to be a substitute anymore, when can we let him start?


Oh, there is discord among the Clippers' youngsters.
