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.

The only thing I care about is winning. That's all. If you don't want to win, you don't want to be around me.

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.

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.

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

You can't get much done in life if you only work on the days when you feel good.
