Kirk is a very big piece of this team's foundation. He is a great leader for our team both on and off the floor and I am very excited to watch him develop.
More Quotes from John Paxson:
I respect the fact that he wants to play. We're also paying his contract, and we have the right to make sure it's the best thing for us. If we can get some financial relief out of the deal, then we'll certainly look into that.John Paxson
The Bulls spent the ensuing three months investigating Curry's health. Three years ago, Eddy told the Chicago newspapers that his mother had had a mild heart attack, ... Later we asked him about it, and he said that no, it wasn't true. Of course, we were not able to confirm that kind of information.

The bottom line, ... is if Eddy had not had any incident and a doctor hadn't suggested it, we wouldn't be asking for it.

Let's face it, we've had several (coaches). So keeping that continuity was huge. And I honestly believe that Scott is one of the top coaches in the league because he teaches the game on the practice floor. And he also knows how to manage a game, how to use people. He's not afraid to try things.

It's always unfortunate. I have as high a regard for Antonio as I do for anyone. I think he is as professional as they come in our business. His reaction was based on what he saw, and I don't fault that at all.

That's fine if the player doesn't want to know what condition he might have. But does the player also want to give up money on his contract if he doesn't do everything a team asks of him in regards to medical testing and then something catastrophic happens to him The players can't have it both ways. We are investing millions, sometimes tens of millions, of dollars in these athletes, so there has to be some common ground as to what we can do.
