Curator note

Some exist with pride, some struggle with pride, some compete with pride, and some fail with pride, but very few can retire with pride. When you finish reading this, congratulations, you've witnessed the lives of many players. The concrete manifestation of this statement is Stephen Curry saying "Nobody wants to touch us next season" after a defeat in 2021; it is Tim Duncan's unwavering belief that they wouldn't mess up before the 2014 Finals; it is Kobe Bryant's promise at Jerry Buss's memorial service to lead the Lakers to the playoffs; it is Dirk Nowitzki hiding in the locker room and crying on the night he shed the "soft" label; it is Kevin Garnett's triumphant roar after lifting the trophy; it is the reason why the 2004 Pistons won and the F4 Lakers lost. Our story begins in that era when pride still holds great significance.
