TSN: Did you think you had the 3-point shooting contest won at All-Star weekend?
KORVER: I was buttoning up my shirt, getting ready to go out because I figured I'd be interviewed and all. I wasn't happy with my score, but I was watching Quentin (Richardson), and he was struggling. I thought he was out of it, but he got to the next-to-last rack and he just started making everything. He made nine shots in a row, and there's nothing you can do about that.
TSN: You had a coat drive last month in which people who donated a coat to charity could come meet you after the game. I understand that went a little too well.
KORVER: It went very well; I was surprised by it. When they were first telling me about it, they figured we'd get 100, 200 maybe 300 coats. Then I would just hang out after the game and shake hands and sign autographs for people who brought them in. But during the week, the P.R. people kept getting phone calls about it, and they came to me and said, "You know, this might be a little bigger than we thought." And it wound up being almost 1,500 coats.
TSN: Wow, so you were there after the game for ...
KORVER: Two hours, maybe a little more than that.
TSN: Did you know you had so many fans?
