I've seen a lot in my life. I've seen a lot of winning. I've seen a lot of testing times. I think when you're tested, you really find out what you're made of.

I don't really want to go into my problems with the team at the time except to say that no one's ever had to pay me to play basketball.

I don't think people fully appreciate the trauma associated with losing. It takes a lot out of you, year after year.

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

I always wanted the ball in my hands with a game on the line, as I think any real competitor does.

You can't ever totally know what's inside of someone else, or see the kind of will someone like Magic has. You have to rely on your instincts to find people who hate losing and know how to win.

I was disappointed if I didn't have a chance to win a game, and if I had the chance and didn't do it.
