It's a sad commentary when I have to say that sometimes in our country we are real sensitive to race.

The thing about it is almost everyone could pass that way, but we were kept from doing it by our coaches.

I think that basketball players should get the job done no matter how it looks on the screen.

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

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.

But I like to think an athlete is an athlete.

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.
