I wouldn't say I'm a ball hog. I'm a shooter.

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

My parents are my backbone. Still are. They're the only group that will support you if you score zero or you score 40.

You can't be held captive by the fear of failure or the fear of what people may say.

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.

Great things come from hard work and perseverance. No excuses.

The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do.
