You have to teach now - tell a kid how to box out, tell him how to pass, teach him footwork. Players don't understand that anymore.

Look, I think you should promote the game, but I think you should make it what it ought to be. Not some kind of a side-show.

When I started playing, I wasn't fast, I was gangly, my jumpshot was terrible.

But I think the image that's thrown out on television is a bad image. Because you see players who want to imitate hip-hop stars. And the NBA is taking advantage of the situation.

Now, I guess, people want stars. People are trying to invent stars.

Just fundamental things - I played guard and I played forward, so you get into a position where you are pivoting out on the court.

But when I did it (the triple-double), I didn't even know it until someone told me.
