December 27, 1991 Tim Hardaway misses all 17 shots against the Wolves
“I’m going to make this score sheet. I had to find a way to set the NBA record.”On December 27, 1991. Tim Hardaway he set a record for clumsiness in the match, with a terrible 0/17 shooting against the Wolves, but the Warriors leader could smile as his team won (106-102).
So, in his third season in the NBA, the king of crossovers he was supposed to make his second All-Star game that year, but was derailed in late 1991. Because of the color of the locker room?
“You know, in Minnesota they had this all-yellow locker room.” he said like this a few years ago. “I wondered why this dressing room is canary yellow. I was told: ‘It’s for the players to relax and soften before the matches’. I tell myself it’s bullshit and it won’t work.”
It’s just that an idea pops into his head… and he doesn’t let it go.
“I go to the court and I miss everything. I steal the ball and, you know, I never thought like that, but now I tell myself that I’m going to miss. I go to the court and I tell myself that I’m going to miss the layup. I’m alone, I’m completely alone, but I tell myself that I’m going to fail. And I actually miss the layup.” Tim Hardaway Jr.’s father explains. “Nellie (Don Nelson, her coach) asks me what’s wrong with me. I told him I should have left the locker room when I was told it was done to soften up the opponents and not be productive. I should have gone out and stayed on the field waiting for the match to start.”
