One thing I've learned about the NBA is that you can have one good year, but you've always got to be progressing and working and making yourself better.

I don't think in the past. I don't think in the future. You grasp the moment.

I don't play basketball for the money. I don't play it for the crowd. When I didn't have a friend, when I was lonely, I always knew I could grab that orange pill and go hoop. I could go and dunk on somebody. If things weren't going right, I could make a basket and feel better.

We don't mind working hard to be successful. We don't mind working to be at our best.

I'm no Bob Gibson. I can tell you that.

I don't like the feeling of losing.

In New York, they like winners. They don't like second place.
