I was a psycho in college.
Freddy Krueger, that's my boy. He's lean, and he's mean. I like scary movies, and when I had my head shaved, some people thought I looked just like him.
The triangle offense is more for slashers and people who like to take the ball to the basket.
Growing up playing on the streets, you made your name by talking mess and getting into people's heads.
As kids, we all wanted a bike. But a lot of people don't have that opportunity, especially in the inner city.
To be part of this exclusive club is special. It's a proud day for me. It's special for me. I get a chance to join Cheryl, the first brother-sister act in the Hall of Fame. She was a role model.
You have to be willing to fail, because you're not going to make every shot.
I'm very respectful of others.
I try and do the right things most of the time and let the chips fall where they may.
When you have 20,000 people yelling and screaming at you, four other guys can concentrate on the floor. So every time I touch the basketball and everyone is yelling and chanting and doing things towards me, well, four other guys can concentrate.
A lot of people wish they could be in the house with the greatest of anything. I just so happened to live across the hall from absolutely, positively the greatest women's basketball player ever.
I made a lot of big threes throughout my career, but it was the 3-point shot that allowed me to maneuver inside the paint, post-up, mid-range game and so forth.
I don't know if it's a small-market thing or not, but we never get the benefit-of-the-doubt calls like New York, L.A., Miami and the big market teams. That's just the way it is.
I was a brash player, and I spoke my mind on the court.
A point guard can carry a team - if he has all the right stuff.
Whether it's the best player or the 12th man next to the Gatorade cooler, understanding the personalities on your team is key.
Having played in the league during the '80s, '90s, and the new millennium (old, I know), I had the chance to see firsthand how the best point guards of our time played the game.
It used to be you a needed a true center to win championships, but now the point guard position holds just as much weight.
I think the character of a man is to establish something where no one else has ever done before.
In professional sports, you live in the moment, and that's what I love about it.
