Adrian Dantley is a guy that I looked at . . . on how to maneuver my body around.

I don't create controversies. They're there long before I open my mouth. I just bring them to your attention.

I played against him (Wilkins) in college. Getting nominated with him, that's pretty cool.

I don't have time to put up with the politics. Who's a Democrat? Who's a Republican? Who's liberal? Who's conservative? Man, can my daughter just go to a school and not get killed? Can these people get a good job? That's what I'm concerned about.

Well, all I can say is that people know I'm not saying anything out of malice.

I know I'm never as good or bad as one single performance. I've never believed in my critics or my worshippers, and I've always been able to leave the game at the arena.

These are my new shoes. They're good shoes. They won't make you rich like me, they won't make you rebound like me, they definitely won't make you handsome like me. They'll only make you have shoes like me. That's it.
