I've got to give Larry Bird his due; he was a great player. He knew the game and he was smart.
If Lebron was playing in the late 80's and early 90's, just an average player
I'm fighting against becoming soft. That's the worst thing you can say to a basketball player.
A player dreams of being a superstar, but he doesn't want people flocking all over him asking for an autograph.
Larry Bird is overrated in a lot of areas. ... Why does he get so much publicity? Because he's white. You never hear about a black player being the greatest.
I'm starting to see players copy what I do. I'm flattered.
It was very difficult being in that house, just sitting around talking about this and that and smoking cigars. But I enjoyed this and I love Britain.
Wilt Chamberlain lied when he said he had 20,000 women.
We were getting cable TV on his watch.
I was running, jumping and doing my thing. My focus was to just show them I could jump, get up to the rim. I tried to get a lot of rebounds, run, maneuver, set screens and stuff like that. ... I think I'll be back here. I think they freaked out. They couldn't believe I am 43 years old.
Many things have happened in the last 10 years. ... I should have been dead, ... The crazy antics, the wild parties. If I did drugs the way I partied with drinking, I would be dead.
My dream is to get back into the NBA on the back of these games, Portland and Toronto have offered me try-outs.
My fans are very important to me and I showed up Thursday to support their loyalty. I'm sorry that I only played a few minutes, but promise to make it up to them on Jan. 10.
Maybe next year, though I need to practice hard. The results in the competition were dazzling.
