If you think and achieve as a team, the individual accolades will take care of themselves. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.

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

I would tell players to relax and never think about what's at stake. Just think about the basketball game. If you start to think about who is going to win the championship, you've lost your focus.

All I knew is that I NEVER wanted to be AVERAGE.

Never think of the consequences of failing for you will always think of a negative result. Think only positive thoughts and your mind will gravitate towards those thoughts!

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

Another day, another opportunity to prove everyone who doubts you wrong.
