I'm a realist. I like to put it in business terms. I ran three different corporations my way and I was successful. But I'm an older guy who is on his way out so they brought me in as a consultant for the new, up-and-coming CEO. I'm here for him.

I'm the master marketer.

Anyone can win a slam-dunk contest. The real Superman is dead. He was assassinated by Pat Riley. I'm the Big Cactus now and ready to roll again.

We know what we have to do. I know I have to get up in the morning, put my underwear on first and then put my pants on first. I don't need people to tell me that.

But you can not compare Yao's stats to mine. You just can't compare it and I am playing everyone one-on-one.

We had more great times than bad times together, but they've moved on, I've moved on. I have a new team now and I have a new focus.

I don't see us having a problem. It's going to be my job to manage the locker room, anyway, so it will work out.
