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 average 25 with three guys on me and they are just looking at stats I guess.

Every time that I've won a championship I've looked at my guys around me and looked at their work ethic and said 'You know what, I'm going to win it this year. I feel that way now.

I'm the last in the line of Russells and Chamberlains.

I make the game easy. Double and triple me, I'll kick it out to you for a wide-open shot. I'll add years to your career.

Talk to the guys that ain't doing nothing, don't talk to me. I just want eight guys out there with me who want to play.

I think it's a great city. I think it's a fabulous city. But in my young juvenile days, I was an idiot, and I bought 30 cars. And I need to drive those cars, and New York isn't really the place you can do that.
