>>Let's take a look at Witch Craft's responses (w/my commentary):

>>> Arvydas Sabonis

>>> Chris Webber
>> (solid citizen: DUI, assault; how can such a loser be so cocky?)
>>> Kevin Garnett
>> (didn't this lockout mess start because of "Garnett money"?)
>>> Gary Payton
>> (cockier than Reggie Miller and Chris Webber combined)
