The most important thing to me is the friends that I've made.

I think that David Stern is probably the greatest commissioner that any sport has ever had in the history of this country.

Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission. I truly believe in the saying "We work to become, not to acquire."

Friendship is a full-time job.

I've been fortunate to meet and work with a lot of really smart people. The thing that strikes me most about them is how they continue to explore and learn every day. I have tried to apply that approach in my modest career as well.

To love someone is nothing, to be loved by someone is something, to love someone who loves you is everything.
