Respect for tellers of truths
This corner of the net has a great deal of R.E.S.P.E.C.T. for Jeff Van Gundy, as a person, a basketball coach and a NBA analyst.
“Hey, listen … that’s truth telling, right there … whether you like to hear the message or not. If Doc Rivers is always the one having to tell the truth, you will not be a championship team. Kevin Garnett risked being a truth-teller … maybe, at the expense of a friendship, right away, I respect that about Kevin Garnett. I respect it about Paul Pierce.”
- Jeff Van Gundy

leadership is about doing what’s right, not what’s popular. this is the reason garnett is a world champion. hurt feelings go away, however, i bet this makes davis a better player.
