One thing you gotta know about me is I have absolutely no filter. I have no problem saying what the hell I think of someone.

You have to be able to separate business from the love of the game. There were a lot of decisions made business-wise that I wasn't happy with, and I took a lot of blame over the years. But you have to be able to separate that from the love you have for the game.

You can't go and anticipate what it is that you want to see. You just have to be present. Be where you are.

I was shooting 45 times a game. What was I supposed to do? Pass it into Chris Mihm & Kwame Brown?

I'm playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition-that's what I've always wanted.

I love the weather, I love my '63 droptop Impala, I love the 405, and I love my guys.

I love going one-on-one with someone. That's what I do. I've never lost. It's a whole different game, just to have them right in front of you and be able to do whatever you want.
