I’ve never seen a better coach than Gregg Popovich.

When it's time for me to walk away from something, I walk away from it. My mind, my body, my conscience tell me that enough is enough.

The marketing of players has created untold wealth for many sports stars. You can't blame them or the company that covets the relationship with them, but that doesn't mean the player is good.

You can't imagine how much good luck is involved in winning, but all of a sudden, you get in a situation where every break goes your way, every call goes your way, every ball that rolls around drops in instead of out. It feels magical.

I would never, ever intentionally hurt a player contractually.

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

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