There aren't too many people who you'll run into called Rip.
That's the best Lindsey has looked. With his energy, his pressure on the ball, getting the ball to the right people at the right time, I thought he played great. It was the first time he's not been sick or hurt.
Some were greatly offended, some were terribly amused, but mostly they were shocked that he did it knowing we're coming up, ... How do you tell someone, especially a psychologist, who should know better, that he's making people uncomfortable?
He's definitely looking at it as a challenge. A lot of people believe that he can't win without Shaq. Now he wants to prove to everybody that he can.
It's definitely amazing. Anybody that comes into the league with that much hype and is able to man-up to that and play so well so early when people probably thought it would take him longer ? it's kind of crazy.
