Every team that I've gone to has had trouble winning games. I guess that's what I've been put on this earth to do, to fix it.

Hard work does pay, and you just have to continue to work, and you got two guys, when you're talking about Gary and myself, we have a God-given talent, but we worked at it and we're happy to be where we are today.

Good teams beat you with speed. Great teams beat you with spacing and timing.

I also play a little bit of Tiger Woods once in awhile. Get on the golf course there, and pretend that I'm beating him.

Oh, I think, watching Magic, him being one of my... I'm one of his biggest fans, and just trying to emulate what he did, going out on the playground, and also playing with older guys.

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

If there wasn't any business and it was just strictly basketball, then there would be no issue, it would probably be done by now. But the team has to protect.
