we had a guy we got in a trade from the clippers his name was terry cummings and uh you looked at him and you said oh my gosh i mean you he was stronger than new rope and and then

and

then i had the good fortune to go to new jersey and being with buck williams Now, guys, I'm telling you what.

That is – what a fun time that was.

And, dude, he had some incredible lines in there, too.

What did he say? As strong as a new rope? He said, Terry Cummings, oh, boy, this guy's stronger than new rope.

Gosh,

dozen years off, but respect.

There's a weird part of me that wants to say that it was Terry Cummings, but I'm not going to guess here because it's too open of an answer.

Terry Cummings, who was a hell of a player before your time, Kyle.

Terry Cummings.
