It's an honor to be considered in the same breath, but I'm not Michael Jordan. I'm the first Chamique Holdsclaw. And I think that's where the women's game has to get to, when women are recognized on their own.
Chamique HoldsclawI know what makes me happy. I know what makes me miserable. I'm trying to stay on the happy side.
Chamique HoldsclawI don't know if I'm the best. There are better shooters, better defenders, but there aren't too many female who play the game like I do.
Chamique HoldsclawI've always been a step ahead. A lot of people haven't experienced the things I've experienced, and made me a stronger person. The life I've been exposed to has let me know what step to take and how not to go back a step. I take life one day at a time, and I prepare myself for each one of those days.
