Tim Hardaway on Saturday was enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, joining Mitch Richmond and Chris Mullin to complete the Warriors’ Run TMC trio.
Warriors Hall of Fame coach Don Nelson allegedly lied to the entire NBA ahead of the 1989 draft, saying Tim Hardaway’s knees were shot.
With those four on stage, Hardaway reflected on his career and expressed gratitude to the laundry list of family, friends, teammates and coaches who helped him get to this point. Of course, he mentioned former Warriors coach Don Nelson and his Run TMC counterparts, who captivated fans with its exciting up-tempo run-and-gun style.Mullin and Richmond took Hardaway under their wings during his first season and taught him how to be a pro.
“Run TMC, man, we were ahead of our time,” Hardaway said. “Chris, Mitch, you will always be family to me. We did everything together during that time with the Warriors. I cherish those years, I cherish our friendship.” It was “incredible,” he said, to think that a kid from the South Side of Chicago made it all the way to Springfield, Massachusetts.“This is bigger than Tim Hardaway,” he said. “This for the South Side of Chicago.”
