Meadowlark was the most sensational, awesome, incredible basketball player I've ever seen.

It was a challenge to my teammates to help me.

They were so clever finding ways to get me the ball. They had to do more than just give up open shots. They had to avoid fouls and pass me the ball in traffic.

I guarantee you, if you could give me 10 points in all those seventh games against the Boston Celtics, instead of Bill Russell having 11 rings, I could've at least had nine or eight.

I believe that good things come to those who work.

You must understand as a kid of color in those days, the Harlem Globetrotters were like being movie stars.

If you have ability in a certain area, why not capitalize on it and improve it and use it?
