Your best player has to set a tone of intolerance for anything that gets in the way of winning

You need your best players to play their best when their best is needed

Players with high character get better. Players with a serious approach get better. The fools never get better

When you know better and you don't do better, you're no better

The best teams play for each other, not with each other

Shooting percentage is just as much about decision making as it is about technique

Sometimes I look like I was under interrogation. Some people just don't look good in clothes. In New York, Armani and all those clothing people used to call me up and tried to pay me not to wear their clothes. This is as good as it's going to get...and then it's all downhill. I'll be fine. I never feel as bad as I look.

I think coaches sometimes foul their own players out of game by benching them too long when in foul trouble

I quit the Knicks so I know what quitting is, I did. I quit. And it's something I regret to this day. I live with it every day and I regret it. And I let my emotions come into it. And I was just emotionally spent. I made a bad decision and I quit.

If Kyle Korver blocks your shot there should be a penalty box you should go to!

Don't worry about being cool. Worry about being the best

Just concentrate on what you're supposed to do
