Names that Ian Begley is looking at across the NBA in terms of big man trade targets for the Knicks: 🔸 Andre Drummond: "Looking at how the Knicks have viewed him in the past - which is favorably - they've wanted to take a run at him in past offseasons. I wonder if that's a guy they take the temperature on" 🔸 Precious Achiuwa: "Is a reunion in the cards? I don't know, I just wonder because of the situation" 🔸 Dario Šarić: "If you're looking for somebody to play a small role, I wonder if they take a look and see what it would take to procure him" 🔸 Daniel Gafford: "I thought he would be available...it seems like they want to compete, so if that's the case, Gafford won't be available" Ian, Iman. / Shump Street Podcast, and Matt Spendley on The Putback with Ian Begley ➡️ The Home of FAIR PLAY™

Doc Rivers HOF speech: "When I was playing for the Knicks, Coach Pat Riley & I had the biggest argument in my entire playing career "Jeff Van Gundy told me years later he was standing outside the door…thinking he may have to come in if he heard furniture moving "Finally during the shouting match Coach looked at me and said: 'One day when you're a head coach––and you will be one (he was screaming at me) you WILL be one––you're gonna understand exactly where I'm coming from' "And I literally yelled back at him: 'Are you crazy? I am neeever gonna coach; every coach that I know––they're nuts' "Well I wanna tell Coach Riley thank you for being right on all accounts "And one of the lessons he taught me was: Never coach a person for who they are today; push them to who they should be someday "That was very important for me"

Richard Sherman was asked if the 49ers miss the playoffs this season, will Kyle Shanahan be on the hot seat: “I don’t know who asked this question, but we gotta check what’s in their cup. Absolutely not. He wouldn’t be close. He would be on an iceberg and if he was somehow on the hot seat then there would be 20 seats in the NFL getting hotter as his got hotter because if he ever got fired, so would they. Because there are at least 20 teams in the NFL that would fire their coach that day to have a chance to interview Kyle Shanahan to be their head coach.”

Bam GOES OFF on the "unethical" comments about his 83: "You're blaming me. You should be blaming the head coach. I was not the one who let me go one on one the whole game until I had 70 then you sent the double. At that point, I had 70 with 9 mins to go. You think I'm not going for it? That's the thing that's crazy when they talk about unethical part of the basketball. If I have 70 w 9 mins to go, who would be like, coach just take me out? Yeah, right You can't be mad at that. If you are mad, I don't care. A lot of people, they're upset. If they did play, they never got the chance to get that close to chasing greatness. If you get that close, that's the point of chasing it -- so you can surpass it.” (via Naveen Ganglani)

Bam Adebayo GOES IN on the critics that says his 83 point game performance is unethical: "For the couch coaches, I mean, if you're in my shoes and you have, first of all, y'all are blaming me. You should be blaming the head coach. Get that first. I was not the one letting me go one-on-one the whole game until I had 70, and then you started to send a double. At that point, I got 70 with, like, what? nine minutes left to go in the game you think i'm not going for it like like and that's the thing that's crazy when they talk about the unethical part of the basketball i'm like if i have 70 points with 9 minutes to go Who would just be like, you know, coach, just take me out. Yeah, right. Anybody in my shoes with nine minutes left? Okay. A minute? All right. Nine? Yeah, I'm going for it. You can't be mad at that. If you are mad, I don't care because a lot of people, they're upset because if they did play, they never had a chance to get that close to chasing greatness. And then if you get that close to chasing greatness, that's the point of chasing it so you can surpass it. And some of the people have never played basketball. So like if you've been in the backyard and you and a couple of your homies have been playing 21 and you got 19. You're not going to get an easy look off. And four, they're going to talk about the free throws. It's not like I shoot 15 free throws a game. It's not like I average 10 free throws a game. You can watch the film. I was legitimately getting fouled every time. So I went to the free throw line."

Anthony Smith explains why he believes Ilia Topuria should return as soon as possible: "I'd like to see him back at the end of the year. You don't want to sit on that too long because it'll fuck with you. It'll mess with how you feel about yourself, especially when you're the level of superstar that he is. I mean, he had a celebratory dinner beforehand, and people were practically holding a funeral for Gaethje before the fight. You're going to have to eat that. You're going to have to eat that shit for a minute. The quicker you can get back, be healthy, and try to get that monkey off your back, the better."

Kobe Bryant drops the ultimate truth bomb on Shaquille O'Neal. "If Shaq had your work ethic... He'd be the greatest of all time for sure... I wish he was in a gym, I would've had 12 rings!" "This guy was a force like I have never seen... he did not care, he was mean, he was nasty, he was competitive, he was vindictive." "I don't deal with people that don't commit at that level but then act as if they do... If you were in shape, by the time I run down on the fast break and run back... you're still coming down the first time, bro. Like, what the hell do you want me to do?"

New University of Houston baseball head coach Will Davis on coaching Alex Bregman at LSU, what he learned from it: "I'm a hold the best players accountable guy. You've got to kind of treat them all the same. . . Now what made Bregman tick is he was very advanced on a mental level. Where he really stood apart was the mental aspect of the game. "People say coach on the field. But he did things you would never. . . He did some stuff in games, I tell these stories all the time to our players, that you were like... It's stuff that I have thought about being in the game so much. But you never expect a player to do it. "He would do stuff to try and help us win that was next level."

Bill Belichick says he learned from Bob Knight coaching Michael Jordan to coach the best players as hard as you coach the worst ones because then it gives the best ones more authority to lead “It was really important because Tom knew it, and Tom brought it to my attention. It enabled him to give more leadership to the offense. If I didn’t point him out, then everybody walks out there feeling like, ‘Well, they got yelled at except for him.’” “But when I could make points to Tom, then Tom could say, ‘Hey fellas, look, he got after me too. He got after all of us. We’ve got to get it going.’ And I learned that from Coach Knight.” “Coach Knight did that with Jordan in the Olympics. He told Jordan, ‘Jordan, I’m going to be on you. I’m going to be on you hard, especially on defense, because I know you can take it.’” “Jordan says, ‘Bring it on. I just want everybody else to play better. Bring it on.’ Because if you’re yelling at Michael Jordan, everybody else has got to come.” “So a lot of times I would tell Tom, ‘Hey Tom, it could get a little rough in there today. Just want to let you know.’ He goes, ‘Well, make sure you include me. I need to be part of it.’”

Vince Carter says he would beat Michael Jordan in an NBA Slam Dunk Contest if both were in their primes “I'm winning. I don't know how, but I'm winning. I appreciate that because that's what the era was like. You know, it will be fun because MJ's going to put up a fight, and I know I would have to bring it” “Just like with Kobe, Dr. J, the greats of the game in dunking, I would love to have had the opportunity to dunk against those guys. I would have loved it” “Like T-Mac, I forced him to be in the dunk contest, but it's for a reason. I wanted the best competition, and I knew he would bring the best out of me. I wanted Kobe to be in it. He was like, ‘Nope,’ because he didn't want to lose. That's his mentality” “I was okay with losing to the greats of the game because, at the same time, I felt like if I'm able to win, what do you consider me”

When Villanova won the 2016 national championship, Jay Wright was stoic as that buzzer beater went in. As the Knicks won, Jalen Brunson was initially stoic to shake the Spurs coach's hand. Coach Wright noticed. "It's a humility that that could be me. I could be on the other side of this," Coach Wright says.

Doc Rivers reveals he once got into a heated argument with Pat Riley that taught him one of the biggest lessons of his career: never coach people for who they are today, but push them toward who they can become “Coach Pat Riley, when I was playing for the Knicks, Coach Riley and I had the biggest argument in my entire playing career. I know all you players thought, you know, I used to go at coaches too.” “And during the shouting match, Coach looked at me and said, ‘One day, when you’re a head coach, and you will be one, you’re going to understand exactly where I’m coming from.’” “And I literally yelled back at him, ‘Are you crazy? I am never going to coach. Every coach that I know, they’re nuts.’ Well, I want to tell Coach Riley thank you for being right on all accounts.” “And one of the lessons he told me was to never coach a person for who they are today, but to push them to who they should be someday. That was very important for me.”

Rory McIlroy has never minced his words when it comes to his views on LIV Golf. He was asked about it again yesterday, and in typical Rory fashion, after saying he was “too judgemental” with players that went, he then said “if you want to be the most competitive golfer you can be, this (PGA Tour) is the place to be. And if you don't want to play here, I think that says something about you.” Speaking after a 5 under par 67 to climb inside the top 10 of the Truist Championship, Rory spoke about his thoughts on the news that the Saudi Arabian PIF was pulling funding to the league: “Yeah, look, I think everyone sort of knows my views on LIV and where it stands in the game of golf. I don't think I need to rehash any of that. It's never been for me and, look, it doesn't mean that LIV is going to go away. They're going to go and try and find alternative investment, whatever that may look like. But when one of the wealthiest sovereign wealth funds in the world thinks that you're too expensive for them, that sort of says something (laughing).” He then was asked what a possible route back for players to the PGA Tour would look like: “It's a question if they do want to come back. Obviously we have seen the quotes over the last few days. And, you know, it seems like some of the guys, if -- again, it all depends on what happens to LIV. But if it is a scenario where they have the option to come back and play on the traditional tours, you know, I think Brian Rolapp has said anything that makes this Tour stronger, anything that makes the DP World Tour stronger, I think everyone should be open to that. That's just good business practice. “So, but again I think there's going to be a lot of sort of bridges to cross to get there, just because, you know, obviously the guys over there are under contract and if they are able to keep it going and get a schedule together next year, it seems like those guys are still going to play the majority of their golf on LIV, in whatever form it takes.” That was followed up with a question about whether he was surprised that LIV Golf players have been outspoken about not wanting to return to the PGA Tour: “Yeah, which is totally fine. Like, again, I think I've said at the start, I was probably too judgmental with the guys that went because I was seeing it from my point of view and maybe not seeing it from other points of view. But again, I'm not going to judge anyone for not wanting to play on the PGA Tour. “I don't know, you know, does that mean that they go play DP World Tour maybe; if that's a pathway, that would make the DP World Tour stronger, and I would be delighted with that, because that's my home Tour, at the end of the day. “But this is, if you want to be the most competitive golfer you can be, this (PGA Tour) is the place to be. And if you don't want to play here, I think that says something about you.” Rory is 4 shots behind Sungjae Im heading to the weekend at Quail Hollow. Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Truist Championship

Isiah Thomas says they didn't run any plays at Indiana because they were the most connected team, and the quality he appreciates most about Bob Knight is that Knight had the courage to coach him “The thing that I loved about Coach Knight… Now that I’m older… Is that he had the courage to coach me. He had the courage…To have confrontation with me.” “He had the courage… To make me do right… When I wanted to be wrong.” “He didn’t let me slide. He didn’t let me get by. It would have been easier for him to do that… Because I was pretty good at the time.” “He would tell me, you’ve got to go to class. If you don’t go to class… You can’t come to practice.” “In terms of freedom, we had no plays at Indiana. We didn't have an out of bounds play. We weren't coming down calling a play. It was like, you've got to get to know your teammate. And once you know your teammate, then you'll know if he's going left or right.” “That was the way Bob Knight made you think and play... He always said it's a thinking man's game. Mental is to physical as 4 is to 1.”

It would have been easier for him to do that… Because I was pretty good at the time.” “He would tell me, you’ve got to go to class. If you don’t go to class… You can’t come to practice.” “In terms of freedom, we had no plays at Indiana. We didn't have an out of bounds play. We weren't coming down calling a play. It was like, you've got to get to know your teammate. And once you know your teammate, then you'll know if he's going left or right.” “That was the way Bob Knight made you think and play... He always said it's a thinking man's game. Mental is to physical as 4 is to 1.”
