I'd like for people to remember me as a winner, because I ain't never been nothin but a winner.

I think I'm telling the truth. I sat by Ray Perkins at the Hall of Fame dinner in New York, and at that time he didn't know he was our coach and I didn't either.

We can't have two standards, one set for the dedicated young men who want to do something ambitious and one set for those who don't.

If it is worth playing, it is worth paying the price to win.

If we'd beaten 'em, I wouldn't be going out.

My approach to the game has been the same at all the places I've been. Vanilla. The sure way. That means, first of all, to win physically. If you got eleven on a field, and they beat the other eleven physically, they'll win. They will start forcing mistakes. They'll win in the fourth quarter.

I can reach a kid who doesn't have any ability as long as he doesn't know it.
