I've always said you have to go through a lot of heartache in life to feel joy.

Don't ever have a rule that you won't enforce with your best player.

You don't want to be down 2-0 in a series. It's always important to try and get one on the opponent's home court. It makes your job at home easier.

The 76ers hold a special place in my heart and I am intrigued by the opportunity to return to Philadelphia, where I was part of a rebuilding program, joining the team the year after it went 9-73 and going to the NBA Finals just four years later.

Work as hard as you can to become as good an individual player as you can to help your team win

I think there's a lot of different ways to win. You've seen teams that win championships with a super-duper star like Kobe Bryant. Those championship teams with Michael Jordan certainly had a great, great player.

To change a team you must change their comfort zone.
