<p>[funny guy- but you gotta admit Hardawy set himself up](<a href=“http://community.livejournal.com/damnportlanders/9210637.html”>http://community.livejournal.com/damnportlanders/9210637.html&lt;/a&gt;)</p>

<p>LOL. Here I was expecting something Star Trekky…</p>

<p>Hardaway is proof that one shouldn’t look to sports figures as role models for anything in particular outside of sports.</p>

<p>Leonard Pitts has a perspective I hadn’t considered-</p>

<p>George Takei is very funny. I hope the hate-filled Hardaway has had the opportunity to see that!</p>

<p>Excellent column by Leonard Pitts.</p>

<p>Hardaway’s comments were apropos what? Amaechi’s book, “Man In The Middle,” ?</p>

<p>whoops… just skimmed article in ek’s link. answer is “yes”</p>

<p>So any publicity is good publicity I guess.</p>

<p>Maybe Hardaway was still remembering what a poor player Amaechi really was. Nothing worse than a dog of a big man. </p>

<p>Very dumb comments to be sure. Ensured great book sales though.</p>

<p>This took me by surprise. Tim Hardaway was one of upright guys in the NBA. I remember his feud with that temperamental Latrell Sprewell and he was on the high-road. And Tim was the quinessential point guard. He was my hero.</p>

<p>I will excuse him as an out-of-character comment. And I choose to remember him the way I like about him before.</p>
