If they want to win right now, I'm all for it. That's all I said the whole time. If you want to wait five years, let me know. My legs aren't as young as they used to be.

I don't set out to make a really hot shoe, I set out to make a product that is true to where I am.

Horrible, terrible AAU basketball. It's stupid. It doesn't teach our kids how to play the game at all so you wind up having players that are big and they bring it up and they do all this fancy crap and they don't know how to post. They don't know the fundamentals of the game. It's stupid.

To be honest with you, I (would) much rather play basketball and not be famous.

It's wonderful for the players. It's a huge challenge and a huge responsibility for us to get our act together, get our butts in gear. Phil isn't going to bail us out because of our mental lapses.

My role is to make sure we're moving in the right direction, getting points, rebounds, steals, assists and providing leadership.

What people see on court is another side of me; it's not me.
