Purchasing the Bobcats is the culmination of my post-playing career goal of becoming the majority owner of an NBA franchise.

I've never been afraid to fail.

When I was playing before I retired, I never really understood the appreciation and the respect that people gave me. People had treated me like a god or something, and that was very embarrassing.

I can't speak for the future. I have no crystal ball.

It's always been said that when I can't find a way to do anything, I will find a way to do it.

It's absolutely wrong that I don't want guys to challenge me. And the people who say that aren't in the room.

You have competition every day because you set such high standards for yourself that you have to go out every day and live up to that.
