Beat L.A. - 2:19

Random Laker note: Following the 1996/97 season, Rick Pitino decided against strongly pursuing Rick Fox. At the time Red Auerbach was upset because he thought Fox was a player. Obviously Fox went on to play a role on several successful seasons with the Lakers. Ultimately, and I hate to admit this, Pitino was vindicated even though it took about 10 years. How was he vindicated? Let's just say I'd be even more disappointed by Fox's appearance in the new television show Dirt if he spent his entire career with the Celtics.

By the way that link about Fox's role in Dirt does not do justice to how horrifying one scene was. I'll leave it at that.
