I've got to give Larry Bird his due; he was a great player. He knew the game and he was smart.

I go out there and get my eyes gouged, my nose busted, my body slammed. I love the pain of the game.

There's one thing everyone should understand: I like my character.

The Bulls talked to just about every person who ever met me.

I understand what rappers are talking about. I think rap is less about educating people about the black community and more about making money.

You watch some teams these days and you wonder if they just met on the playground and decided to choose up sides.

I spent my whole childhood looking for an escape.
