Petty things don't bother me as much as they used to.
I've also always known that I wouldn't be playing for the N.B.A.
Basketball is always a piece of my life, but never the centerpiece.
I have no regrets about my career or retiring. Not once have I thought 'Gosh, I wish I was back on the court.
I think every time I go in a game, I have added something positive. I have gotten a rebound or made a defensive play. That is what I try to focus on.
I like being on the floor, listening in on the huddles. It makes me feel like a player again.
