Failure is acceptable. but not trying is a whole different ball park.

Even when I'm old and grey, I won't be able to play it, but I'll still love the game.

Each time I step on the basketball court, I never know what will happen. I live for the moment. I play for the moment.

I play to win, whether during practice or a real game. And I will not let anything get in the way of me and my competitive enthusiasm to win.

If you pass the ball to Bill Cartwright, you'll never get the ball from me.

You remember the [remarks] you made in 1994 about, 'I think I can guard you, I can shut you down, I would love to play against you?' Well, you're about to get your chance.

I knew where I wanted to go, what kind of player I wanted to become and I focused on getting there.
