...and that's what separates the professionals from the taxpayers

Championship teams are built on being prepared, playing unselfishly and being held accountable.

My biggest fear had always been getting hurt, and not being able to leave the game as a player on my own terms.

I've got to play free agency out, and I've got to look at all of my options.

Kobe enjoys that situation. Stepping up and making the big basket or being involved in a key play.

The 76ers currently play very good basketball, and we don't. However, we are still only one win behind them. If we continue to improve, we should be on the top of our division at the end of the regular season.

Yeah, I'm excited about it, my teammates are telling me to look at the basket, so that's what I'm trying to do.
