When pride still matters

Description

Some people exist proudly, some struggle proudly, some compete proudly, and some fail proudly, but few can quit with pride. When you finish reading this paragraph, congratulations, you have seen many players in their lives.
The embodiment of this statement is Stephen Curry saying that no one wants to touch us next season after the failure in 2021; it is Tim Duncan who firmly believes that they will not mess up before the start of the 2014 Finals; it is Kobe Bryant Special in Old Bath At the memorial service, he promised to bring the Lakers into the playoffs; it was the night when Nowitzki got rid of his reputation as a softie and hid in the locker room and shed tears; it was Kevin Garnett who screamed in the sky after winning the cup; it was the reason why the 04 Pistons Winning and the reason why the F4 Lakers lost.
Our story begins in an era when pride still mattered.
