So much youth basketball is being played around the world, in countries everywhere. And the sheer volume of kids means that Winthrop and Monmouth can get some pretty good players.
Despite the amazing diversity we're blessed with in this country, schools are still in large part segregated because of economic disparity. Sports are one of the few areas where kids are really given the opportunity to interact with those of different races and religions.
I have always been very comfortable behind a microphone. I love talking about basketball, I love being around people, I love being around the game, the travel and the excitement around the arena.
Guarding LeBron James has to be the hardest job in basketball.
I learned that people everywhere are basically the same and have similar goals that we do. They want health and happiness and the opportunity to provide for their families.
I think it's imperative to follow your heart and choose a profession you're passionate about, and if you haven't found that 'spark' yet, if you're not sure what you want to do with your lives - be persistent until you do.
I do believe that one way to bring cultures together, to develop trust between people and countries and religions, is through education. And through music and art and basketball and activities and joys that people share worldwide, regardless of ethnic background or religious orientation.
Isn't that great? You play 15 years, average six points a game and they call you a legend when you show up at All-Star weekend. I won't correct it if they run it. I'll just go with it.
The worst game I ever played was in the Final Four, and to be honest, I still think about it 18 years later. It's about the only game I ever think about from my entire career, but it's so fresh in my mind because it was so painful.
We couldn't make it in practice. We missed probably 20 straight. I'm thinking, 'This is trouble. We're not going to do very well.' And then he makes the first one.
Most of them really aren't a factor. Even (Tracy) McGrady and Kobe (Bryant) didn't light it up their first year.
I think Marcus might be the best player on that team right now, and that's saying something because he's a freshman.
Maybe he should get a three-year extension after that second half.
With supplies, that is where financial contributions come into play. Supplies have to be constantly replenished. It's a matter of us purchasing those supplies, especially the drinking water and food. The little things are important while the search and rescue is going on.
