When I was 3, my father stopped coming home.
When they gave me that trophy, bro, I cried.
With me, everything's right on the table.
I felt like calling attention to AIDS. I had the AIDS ribbon colored into my hair during the playoffs in '95.
I don't fit into the mold of the NBA man, and I think I've been punished financially for it.
I didn't want to be known as Madonna's playboy, her boy toy.
This whole huddle thing really pisses me off.
These people didn't know anything about black people, so the only thing they could imagine was the worst thing.
I'm trying to find new ways to make this game more attractive.
The NBA believes if you play for a team and get paid by a team, you're the property of that team for 24 hours a day.
The NBA's chosen ones think I'm setting a bad example? I think they need to look around and stop taking themselves so seriously.
The only time I'd played organized basketball was my sophomore year in high school, when I barely made the junior varsity team.
The Spurs couldn't put everything aside and just play the damn game.
