Sometimes, things may not go your way, but the effort should be there every single night.

I missed 9000 shots in my career, lost almost 300 games and missed the shot to win the game 26 times.

For a competitive junkie like me, golf is a great solution because it smacks you in the face every time you think you have accomplished something. That to me has taken over a lot of the energy and competitiveness for basketball.

No brain, no gain. Stay in school.

There is no such thing as a perfect basketball player, and I don't believe there is only one greatest player either.

I went to a bookstore to try to find a book. The bottom line is, it all comes by trial and error. It was scary and exciting at first you don't know what to expect. But once you look into your child's eyes, you forget about that.

Basketball isn't just about the bright lights, packed arenas and highlight reels. Basketball is a way of life. Basketball is a relationship between you and the ball, you and your teammates. If you love the game, nobody can take that from you.
