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.

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.

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

Just because it is an All-Star Game doesn't mean that you are playing as efficiently as you should.

I think that everyone should be able to dribble. Everyone should be able to pass. Otherwise, why are you out there?

There's so many young peoople who start to play basketball and never learn the fundamentals.

When I came into the league, once a team drafted you, they owned you forever. If they didn't like the clothes you wore, or the car you drove, they could blackball you.
