anybody hand president protect rules took tough understand
It's a tough situation, you know? On the one hand, as president of the (players') union, I understand the rules better than anybody and why that rule is in place. But on the other hand - which I think is the part of me that took over - as a man, you have to protect your family.

I'm not apologizing to anybody for anything. If anything, he needs to take a look at himself. The fact he continued to say things ... after he was told my son was sitting there says a lot about him.

It's time for him to grow up. If you know Tyson like I know Tyson, he's hurting because he's not out there playing well. He really wants to win. The only advice I have for him is to continue being the guy I know he is: come in and work hard every day and stay longer if you have or come earlier.

Right now, I'm just trying to lead by example. If I can go out there and show effort each and every time up and down the floor, defensively, offensively, hopefully it will rub off on the next guy.
good left people stand worry
They have a right to feel how they feel. Even if I would have left on a good note, there is still going to be people who don't like you, who don't like what you stand for. I can't worry about that.

It's not that bad. I'm still doing something I love to do.

I just think what these guys are doing is their best and what the coach asks them to do. I came into a situation where guys are willing to do anything it takes to succeed.

I know I should not have acted the way I did, but I would have felt terrible if I didn't react.
