The road to freedom is a beautiful system

I will have Derek Fisher wear all 5 of his rings the first time he comes in to talk to Carmelo.

He practiced against Kobe all of last year, so obviously it was sweet revenge for him. We deserved that. We didn't know who he was, we gave him up to Charlotte, we had no idea how good a player he was.

If you give the future all your attention, the present will pass you by.

In basketball - as in life - true joy comes from being fully present in each and every moment, not just when things are going your way.

Coaching is salesmanship. Coaching is winning players over and convincing them they have to play together. It takes a team conviction to play together to make things work.

I'm not going to coach again. I've done my coaching, and I think I can put that aside.
