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

Kohl's words quickly set the pace, with the media subsequently fueling the flames and pushing Fisher into the storm of public opinion.

Not long ago, Kohl had just been defeated by the Clippers 0-4, ending his own coaching career. And now, he sat in the studio, commanding and critiquing with ease.


As Fisher was caught in the whirlpool of public opinion, Durant stood up: "You damn media, why can't you sincerely praise the performance of the Clippers? Isn't it because they played well that we lost? The reason we lost is simple—it's because the Clippers performed better in the last two games!"
