I think that any time you're able to get a guy like Carmelo Anthony to be on your team, you're going to be a step up.

I started playing baseball and soccer. Those were my sports on the streets and in school when I was growing up. I didn't even start playing basketball until I was 14.

Play the game with a smile.

When people ask me what I miss most about the game, it's being in the locker room and getting to know the guys. Back in those days, we had roommates. We had to talk basketball and that was a great way to understand the game itself and form those lasting relationships.

I have been involved in music since 1972 when I started managing two artists from The Jimi Hendrix Band. My family has been involved in music for years, so it's kind of in my blood. I just wish I could sing!

Guys have to look up to somebody. Everybody needs to have their own role and somebody has to be the star.

Jamal Crawford reminds me the most of myself, the way he goes to the basket. But they need leadership.
