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

Powered by precise arrangements and effective execution, the Clippers easily defeated the Golden State Warriors in the first game.


In the subsequent second game, the Warriors decided to leverage their player's physical strength, as their young core appeared too naive in front of Yu Fei, with no psychological advantage whatsoever.


It was a correct choice, while at the same time, the Clippers were happy to see the Warriors do so.


Rivers disliked going against coaches who play mind games the most; he preferred pure strength and talent-based contests, which the Clippers lacked most.


However, the Warriors not only slowed down the pace but also reduced both sides' shooting percentage with strong defense.


But they overlooked one point, failing to make a clear arrangement between offensive rebounding and getting back on defense.


Without clear intentions from the coaching staff, players naturally tried hard to hit the boards, but the Warriors didn't have a defensive advantage.
