Showdown on airplane prompts Rivers to release Horace Grant.
Byline: Brian Schmitz
ORLANDO _ Relaxing in his $10 million dream home in Winter Park on Thursday morning_The House That The Magic's Money Built_Horace Grant couldn't believe his once-blissful relationship with the club had ended in a nightmare:
A screaming confrontation between himself and Coach Doc Rivers that became so heated, it required players to separate them _ at 30,000 feet.
The Magic was on the team plane bound to Orlando on Tuesday night after a listless loss to the Chicago Bulls. Rivers had been summoned to another part of the aircraft to quell a brewing argument between Grant and superstar Tracy McGrady.
McGrady was upset by quotes in an ESPN.com story about his defensive shortcomings that were attributed to Grant (and attributed to "a Magic player" whom T-Mac figured was also Horace).
