    e.g.

    "
    “People will always want to talk about the championships, the All-Star selections, or the scoring titles, but what I’ll really always cherish are all the times I let my teammates know when they completely fucked up,” said Bryant, adding that since deciding to retire at the end of this season, he has been hit by a sudden wave of nostalgia for all of the instances in which he unloaded on his fellow players for their mental errors or lack of physicality against opponents. “It really is the little things that stick with me, like yelling at Dwight Howard for not taking a charge or kicking Kwame Brown out of practice because he didn’t dive for a loose ball.”

    “That’s the type of stuff I’ll really miss the most,” Bryant added."

    awesome

    That is great, they even threw in some that had to be real for authenticity. Like the Steve Blake one.

    My favorite part was the Byron Scott part.

    The title to this thread is much funnier if you pronounce tear as "tare".

    I think that Kwame Brown one is real, and I also read that Kwame and Jordan got into it at practice when they both played for the Wizards.
