“It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up magazine. Salt’n’Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine. Hangin’ pictures on my wall. Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl, I let my tape rock ‘til my tape popped. -Biggie Smalls”

Jay-z and Cam’Ron Interview on BET 2002
Jackson waited for the room to calm down, judged the moment for what it was, chalked it up as an aberration and moved on. More than a few coaches would have abandoned Pippen, claimed that he lost the team, pushed for him to be traded that summer. Jackson knew that Pippen’s mistake came from a complicated place, a Molotov cocktail of insecurity, ego and frustration about his unfair salary. When Jordan left, everyone pushed Scottie to be the leader — including Jackson — but the Bulls didn’t pay him like other franchise players, and now they were giving away his “You the man!” moment? Jackson wanted to understand why Pippen handled it so poorly, figured it out, determined it wouldn’t happen again (hopefully), and defended him going forward. Coaching isn’t just about calling plays, riding the officials and figuring out strategies. Really, it’s management more than anything else. You manage people. Jackson managed people better than anyone. - http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/110513&sportCat=nba
