I'll always be Number 1 to myself.

People got to realize that the owners who been paying me are a lot richer than I am. It's not like I was born rich; I had to play basketball to make this type of money.

I'm never gonna try it, because you got to pay a lot for cocaine, and that's not the way I want to spend my money.

I enjoy money. You got to know how to enjoy it, though. A lot of people enjoy it the wrong way: They spend it all.

I never thought I was the best; I just thought I was one of the best.

Seems like everybody wants to know if an athlete is on drugs, so you got to stay clear of wild people.

Owners want to make their team a winner so they can get more fans in the stands, and that's why they go after the best ball-players and pay 'em what they're worth.
