Robert Parish I’d played with three of the baddest men ever: Larry (Bird), Kevin (McHale), and William (Bill Walton). So, I wasn’t genuflecting to Michael Jordan. He’s a badass man, don’t get me wrong. But I balled with some of the best, too. After practice, the media of course made more out of it than it was. Just a little talk during a scrimmage between two guys who really respected each other. Along with barking back at MJ here and there, my real job on the team was to be a veteran to some of the young guys, like Dickie Simpkins and Jason Caffey. I took them under my wing. But really they took me under theirs! Those guys had me doing things I’d never done before. Like go to a gentleman’s club.
