"Jamal Crawford reminds me the most of myself, the way he goes to the basket. But they need leadership."
"Just be patient. Let the game come to you. Don't rush. Be quick, but don't hurry."
"When people ask me what I miss most about the game, it's being in the locker room and getting to know the guys. Back in those days, we had roommates. We had to talk basketball and that was a great way to understand the game itself and form those lasting relationships."
"Guys have to look up to somebody. Everybody needs to have their own role and somebody has to be the star."
"The game of basketball is one thing, but the image of the game is another thing."
