If Hurley or Laettner don't win, the whole thing is invalid.

Playing defense really tough?

The only time I was ever mad, is when we played y'all and I wasn't really mad at him as much as I was mad at BK for not being able to handle the ball.

even better that he's considered offensively deficient but yet a tough defender.

Perfect candidate for a guy who's hated by opposing teams & the general public but loved by his own fanbase.

Only thing that would make him a better candidate for hate would be if he played for Duke.

He kinda has this aura like he's actually good,
but he's sooooo bad on offense and sooooo good on
defense. A guard that awful on offense being a
household name is sorta hate worthy

And I don't hate Craft one bit

Legend John Chaney...

"I'm beaten by a guy who couldn't make a basket if you set him in the basket and dropped his rump through the basket," said Chaney. "King Rice was his name. He hadn't made a shot all year. He kicked one off the backboard, off the top of the backboard. It was a terrible shot. He was terrible guard. But, they called him King."

he was (and is) so non-offensive. It's like hating Dale Davis.

Noah got under everybody's skin AND was goofy as fuck. Seemed like *everybody* despised him, except Gator fans.

Nah, fuck Al Horford.

The annoying thing Noah did was the And 1 dance he'd do. And he was just goofy.

But I'd be lying if I didn't love when y'all won and he went up to the stands. Followed by his dance afterwards. Shit is gold.

And now, he's one of the best most respectable people in basketball.

I was obviously young, but my first tourney I watched was the 1991 tournament. Although most of my memories of it come from rewatching most of those games years later, I still remember the Grant Hill alley-oop in the title game as the play that made me want to play basketball.

I remember wearing a Duke shirt to school the Monday after The Shot the next year and other kids giving me shit all day. So I've been acutely aware of Laettner hate for literally my entire life.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.
