    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">What stands out most about the job Eddie Jordan has done this season is how calm he remains in the immediate aftermath of a loss like the one last night at MCI Center to the Boston Celtics, one of those losses that can drive a coach into a rant, drive him to lose patience with his team, and in some cases lose the team itself.

    Jordan always finds restraint. He can criticize, even publicly, but sound professorial in doing so. He reminds himself the NBA season is a marathon and there are going to be nights like last night, when one of his all-stars, Gilbert Arenas, scores 43 points and another of his all-stars, Antawn Jamison, comes back from an injury to score 30 and grab eight rebounds -- yet, the Wizards lose.</div> Source

    Eddie is very calm...with the guards. If the bigs make ONE mistake (excluding his lovers, Michael Ruffin and Etan Thomas)..they are yanked.
