Tim Hardaway: "I was supposed to go 3 or 4. I went 14 to Golden State. Don Nelson is calling all the teams that was supposed to pick me and telling them I got a bum knee. And then he picks me."

Michael Irvin says a relative who bought him sneakers in eighth grade has lived rent-free in his house for 30 years, and still calls asking for new cabinets
“The white fans, they got every dime of their money, they don’t worry about none of that. I got 16 brothers. I own seven homes in Florida right now, and I got seven relatives in them and they won’t leave.”
“They ain’t paid rent in 30 years. And they’ll call me: ‘Michael, we need some new cabinets in the house.’ You’ve been standing there 30 years, ain’t paid no rent, what are you doing?”
“Because our family feels, ‘Remember, I brought you some sneakers in the eighth grade, you should be able to get me this house.’ Like, that was sneakers. Why do I gotta get you a house?”
💔Derrick Moore, 47, a beloved elementary school teacher and father of four from Loganville, Georgia, gave his life on August 7, 2026, to save a young girl he had never met.
While at Myrtle Beach, SC, he saw the child caught in a powerful rip current after lifeguards had gone off duty. Without hesitation, he ran into the water, pulled her to safety, and then was swept under himself. His body was recovered the next day.
He was known as “Coach” to his students at Rockbridge Elementary. Colleagues and family describe him as a man who always showed up with a smile and a heart ready to help.
He didn’t know the little girl.
He just knew she needed saving.
Rest in power, Derrick Moore.
True hero. Forever. 💔🇺🇸🫡
