I don’t know who came up with the line, but the team had T-shirts with that phrase on it. And during an interview, Taft used that line to answer a question.

I thought Krauser penned "We be Great" but apparently ran into some copyright issues with the Frosted Flakes folks...

Its funny that on one hand, this is our very recent hoops history, while on the other hand, it's now 14+ years ago.

What poster wrote the book of the same title? I enjoyed reading that back in the day.
