I believe over time, through people talking about it, this quote has grown, morphed and gained a life of it's own. It's around this time that the expectations around basketball were surging, mainly because the football season was already circling the drain.

Copied from Tech Talk Live notes:

Has Mike Young ever had a starting five that shoots as well as this one?

No. I’ve talked about that with some others. I’ve never had that team, and I’ve had a bunch of really, really good teams, and I’ve had teams I could put four on the floor that could really stretch you. I don’t think I’ve ever played with a true front line, and all five guys can shoot it. That really gives you heartburn on the defensive end. Nobody wants to guard that, that’s really tricky. If I’m guarding your team and you can’t shoot, well I don’t have to guard you, so I can stay back here and cover up some other things. When I’ve gotta get out to you, and the longer that possession goes, the farther out those defenders get, now you can drive it and do some other things. The opportunities, I’ve had a great time this summer just imagining and toying with things, that’ll be a lot of fun for me.
