Every parent wants to see their kids excel.

Every time when they would call my name I kept hearing 'New York Knicks' instead of 'Seattle SuperSonics.

I think the people here in New York appreciated what I brought to the table, and they showed it when I retired by the way they came out and supported me, and it meant a lot to me. It made me feel like I am a part of this city, and I will remain a part of this city.

Umm - it was - you know - umm - a good game. You know.

We feel that we are fighting for our lives and our livelihoods.

Everybody keeps telling me how surprised they are with what I've done. But I'm telling you honestly that it doesn't surprise me. I knew I could do it.

I'm satisfied with the way I play, but I don't evaluate my performances. I worry about what I can contribute defensively. I don't need to score. As long as we win, I don't care how many points I score.
