I’m a running coach and I am going to continue to run, but I would hope that we are better defensively.

Where ever the Mavericks are today, we owe it to Michael Finley. He was the one guy who stayed when we were a terrible team. He stayed and fought the fight.

I'm the most unracist person around.

I spent 50 years in the NBA. Can you imagine doing something that you love the most in the entire world and doing it for your entire life and, besides that, getting a pile of money for it? It's unbelievable. I'm the luckiest guy in the world. And I know it.

You have a lot of ups and downs in coaching, especially, but I can't remember any bad times at this point. I mean, they're all good. A lot of tears when you lose, a lot of down times, but I can't remember any of them. They're all positive now. Even the bad times were good.

I’m a running coach and I am going to continue to run, but I would hope that we are better defensively.

When you have bad teams, you've got to be creative to win games you're not supposed to win.
