I think Kidd was having the court deal from hitting his wife, wasn't he?
And I think Vince got injured.
Duncan, Iverson, and Jefferson honored their commitment, but Larry Brown is absolutely right for saying that 9/11 played a hand, because terrorist threats were still fresh in people's minds.
He's wrong in saying that was the problem, though. There were a number of prblems; none of them are 'the one problem.'
Real injury or fake injury?
Just checking.
