I must say I'm impressed, I would never think he could be such a passionate writer.

But my editorial instincts claim that he should finish it at the "Everything is motivation" sentence. It requires no further explanation.

It makes it really hard to want to get rid of players that fit well here. If Kanter could just play defense, our decisions for the future would be so much easier.
