More quotes by Earl Monroe
Baltimore was like a small town when I got there - the Colts, the Orioles, guys like Frank Robinson, we all knew and respected each other. Everyone would cross paths at one point at Lenny Moore's Sportsman's Lounge, trading stories and having some fun.
Earl Monroe
Just be patient. Let the game come to you. Don't rush. Be quick, but don't hurry.
Earl Monroe
The game of basketball is one thing, but the image of the game is another thing.
Earl Monroe
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.
Earl Monroe
Play the game with a smile.
Earl Monroe
