My decision leaving the Nuggets was based on the organization not saying they had the cap room to sign me.

My favorite memory is my five years with the Nuggets. From my first day to my last day is a great memory. There wasn't a year that I was a Nugget that I didn't think we succeeded.

There are people out there dying every day, so when you wake up, you just have to thank the Man Upstairs for another day on this planet. There's not much else we can ask for.

When an elevator brings u upstairs, you better send it back down in order to bring others up!

When you take the elevator to the top, please remember to send it back down so someone else might use it.

I am not in politics. 'President Mutombo?' No, no, no. There has never been a politician in my family, and I am not going to try to be the first one.

God put us here to prepare this place for the next generation. That's our job. Raising children and helping the community, that's preparing for the next generation.
