I was taught to play that way when I was in high school and even before I got to high school.

It's like all guys want to do is make a dunk, grab their shirt and yell out and scream - they could be down 30 points but that's what they do. Okay, so you made a dunk. Get back down the floor on defense!

I played on an all-black high school team and we didn't want people saying that we were clowns.

College coaches want to power the ball inside, they want (their post players) to power the ball up, but no one can shoot from that 15-foot area anymore.

I don't know hardly any of the players who have the in-between game like me, who can go to any position on the court.

Actually, Magic and the Lakers beat Philadelphia for Magic's first NBA Championship.

The Olympics were great, because you had to make the team, and then go to the games. Now, I don't know, these guys today don't want to do anything like that.
