You don't have to be Magic to be special. You're already special, you're you.

If people around you aren't going anywhere, if their dreams are no bigger than hanging out on the corner, or if they're dragging you down, get rid of them.

You either have to be great or you have to be bad to get a good pick.

It all started when I got injured early in my second season. This turned out to be as difficult emotionally as physically.

When you are honest and open with young people, they let you in.

Any guy who can maintain a positive attitude without much playing time certainly earns my respect.

I'm a big believer in dreaming. If you don't dream it, you can't become it.
