Don't let talent get in way of team performance. Great players do what's outstanding for team, not what makes them stand out

Basketball came to me and for some reason it gave me an opportunity to live a life that I didn't dream possible. But it did let me live my dreams.

The passion to win games, the incredible, focused energy and also the camaraderie of the team were all things that I really loved.

It was clear to me that I was never going to be the same kind of player I had been. It was time to quit.

I enjoy winning, but more importantly I enjoy the people I'm around.

There are many players who don't measure up to their marketability.

As a player all you can do is play within yourself, even in the context of a team sport.
