Class act. Great guy. But his injury and failed expectations make him the biggest FA let down in Magic history. His salary prevented us from building a better team around T-Mac.
So we should add Doc Rivers to this list. He told Duncan that his fiancé wouldn't be allowed on the team plane.
Yep, Grant Hill was on NBA TV a few months ago and said he was at the dinner when that happened. And that the energy went right out of the room when he said that. And what added insult to injury was Paul Pierce was there and said he did allow it with the Celtics. Doc was allowed way too much influence on player decisions too. He wanted Sasser, wanted to keep Meech instead of Ben Wallace and others.
