Remembering Dick the Knick

By Dennis D’Agostino

“The only place, even today, in my life where I feel comfortable is on the basketball court. I know I’m not a good speaker. I don’t enjoy speaking, and I’ve shied away from so many places where they want me to speak. I’m not comfortable with it. The only time I’ve ever been sure of myself was on a basketball court.” --- Dick McGuire, 2002
