beauty equality gave intellect looked parity people pride realize recognize respect sell white
What he looked for was parity and equality and respect, and I think that he did get. Now, the respect, yes, I don't know if we have the parity and the equality because there are still advertisers who don't think of Ebony. There are still advertisers who don't think of Jet. Where we have to go in and sell them and re-sell them constantly, constantly, but I think it's the respect of the white community, that's what he wanted. I want people to realize what he did for African-Americans; he gave us a face. He made people recognize the beauty in us, the intellect in us, and also the pride that we have.

fit five four great guys locker love veteran
As a player, you would love to have him on your team. As a person I just don't know yet. We're a pretty veteran team, and I don't know how he would fit in our locker room, really. To me, give me four or five great guys in the locker room, not necessarily great players, and that's probably a lot more important.

changed defense deserve efficient four games good job late limiting locker looks pride schedule teams three tired
If the commissioner changed the schedule and you had to play three or four games in a row, championship teams still find a way to win. So we don't use tired as an excuse. We didn't deserve to win. We weren't very efficient offensively. And give their defense credit. They did a good job of limiting Dirk and Josh's looks late in the game. They have a lot of pride in their locker room.
anybody expected game locker room talk time
I don't think anybody in this locker room expected to be one game under .500 at this point. I don't think anybody expected to be one game under any time this season. We can talk about it, but now it's time to just show up and play ball.

If I'm such a problem, why do these people continue to invest dollars if he's a problem? I wouldn't. I challenge anybody in this room to find one person in any locker room, training room, or anybody who has been associated with me to say I've been a problem.
