Harvey Grant On His NBA Career And His Twin Brother Horace Grant

Harvey Grant is a retired NBA player who spent his career with the Washington Bullets, Portland Trailblazers, and Philadelphia 76ers organizations.

Harvey joined Ed and Steve to talk about his NBA career, the NBA career of his twin brother Horace Grant, and reflect on the life of Moses Malone.

Steve asked Harvey whether he was ever jealous of his brother Horace Grant getting to play with Michael Jordan. Harvey admitted he was but also added that he had the opportunity to play with great players as well, "of course I was, but I did get to play with a Hall of Famer in Bernard King and I learned so much from him from playing against him in practice. What some people forget is Horace didn't just play with Jordan and Pippen, he played with Shaq and Penny in Orlando and he played with Kobe and Shaq in Los Angeles when they won their first title."

Ed asked Harvey about his thoughts on the New York Knicks and whether they will be competitive this season. Harvey like some of the additions the Knicks have made this off season and expects them to be much more competitive this season, "I think they are putting some pieces together, they've brought in Robin Lopez, Aaron Afflalo and Derrick Williams. They are putting pieces around Carmelo Anthony to make a push for the playoffs. I hope they will surprise some people this season."

Harvey went on to discuss what he's been up to since retiring from the NBA, the late Moses Malone, and his thoughts on who he thinks is the better player, Michael Jordan or LeBron James.
