    T-Mac uses a lot of double negatives when he talks.

    "I don't believe in no pressure" -- does that mean he doesn't believe in pressure, or he thinks there's always pressure?

    He doesn't believe in such a thing as "no pressure." So, yes, there's always pressure.

    I can't help but see some ignorance in this post.

    So only African Americans are capable of committing double negatives? I'm not even African American but even I feel offended somewhat.

    "This is the most talented team that I've been on in my 12 years."

    This is becoming a Sports Cliche

    I think he means he doen't believe in any pressure, ie. pressure doesn't factor into it, or doesn't bother him.

    Maybe it's where you graduated. Shane Battier kind of sounds like a nerd.

    Well in T-mac case the last few years it is true too bad he can't say "This is the most healthiest team that I've been on in my 12 years.
