There's a through line that connects all of us.

These young guys are playing checkers. I'm out there playing chess.

I like playing for the purple and gold. This is where I want to finish up.

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.

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.

Michael Jackson? He was something more (than one of my favorite entertainers), a true friend. He wasn't just a genius. Above all, he was a good person, who gave so much. He gave people values, he encouraged them to better themselves all the time. He was far deeper and more authentic than people could see. He was misunderstood too many times

It really doesn't matter to me. We're just talking about clothes. I can understand what the NBA is trying to do. I love my sneakers, but we're just talking about clothes.
