Timberwolves: Flip Saunders touched so many lives
Reaction to Sunday's death of Flip Saunders, Timberwolves coach and part-owner:
"Coach Flip made my dream a reality. He believed in me. I am forever thankful to him for that. We all love you and will miss you." -- Timberwolves point guard and former Apple Valley star Tyus Jones
"This is a very sad day and my heart, my prayers and condolences go out to the entire Saunders family. Flip was more than just a friend, he was a confidant and a mentor. The basketball world lost a 'coaches' coach' today, and I lost a great friend." -- Los Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers
