"I was congratulating [Michael Jordan], just telling him it was well-deserved," [Kevin] Martin said. "And the first thing he said was, 'I can't wait to be here for your (Hall induction).' So I told him, 'Quit drinking.' "

Nice article

looking forward to Tyreke coming in on Sunday and Kevin living up to MJ’s expectations.

Agreed

It’s good for K-Mart to rub shoulders with greatness. I hope he can bring that to camp and make it rub off on the rest of ’em…

I can see the RealGM Wiretap already

KMart to MJ: “Stop Drinking”

I can see the WSJ already

KMart to America: “Sell your Seagram’s stock.”

Cool article

It had to have been inspiring being around Jordan and listening to his Hall of Fame speech. It’s a hard path to walk, but one must forget the naysayers and work hard on your game.

I’m still hoping for that breakout year from K-mart to happen this season; this cat works so hard during the summer, it’d be surprising to me if he didn’t improve an aspect of his game. And I’m waiting on that 50 pt game….

Kevin Martin – 50 point game.

So is Kmart concerned with MJ bad habits or

is he implying that Jordan must be drunk to assume Kev will be in the hall?

I love that

MJ doesn’t overlook our guys when it comes to Team Jordan just because they play for the “Lowly” or “small market” Kings first it was Bibby & now KM. I guess being a Kings fan I have to be happy with the small acknowledgements we get from time to time
