Quote

We're beating a lot of poor teams. So what? We won a lot of games last year, too. Will Horace and Bill still be playing at this level in the playoffs...Can Pip keep it up?

I failed so therefore I succeed.
Michael Jordan

When I step onto the court, I don't have to think about anything. If I have a problem off the court, I find that after I play, my mind is clearer and I can come up with a better solution. It's like therapy. It relaxes me and allows me to solve problems.

Accept a loss as a learning experience, and never point fingers at your teammates

It's not about the shoes, it's what you do in them.

I'm not afraid to take a step and if I fall, I fall. I pick myself up and move on. If we can all learn one thing in life, it's don't be afraid to take on something that you believe you're capable of achieving.

Once I get the ball, you're at my mercy. There is nothing you can say or do about it. I own the ball.

Patience. I will become what I know I am.

I don't do things half-heartedly. Because I know if I do, I can expect half-hearted results. Most people get it the honest way by setting their goals and committing themselves to achieving their goals. That's the only way I did it anyway. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.

If I have an agenda or a goal, no one is going to deter me from what I want to do.

You have competition every day because you set such high standards for yourself that you have to go out every day and live up to that.

For a competitive junkie like me, golf is a great solution because it smacks you in the face every time you think you have accomplished something. That to me has taken over a lot of the energy and competitiveness for basketball.

We're not winning because of talent. We're just beating bad teams.

People say they wish they were Michael Jordan. OK, do it for a year. Do it for two years. Do it for five years. When you get past the fun part, then go do the part where you get into cities at three a.m. and you have fifteen people waiting for autographs when you're as tired as hell.

I think the players win the championship, and the organization has something to do with it, don't get me wrong. But don't try to put the organization above the players.

I realize that I'm black, but I like to be viewed as a person, and this is everybody's wish.

When I was playing before I retired, I never really understood the appreciation and the respect that people gave me. People had treated me like a god or something, and that was very embarrassing.

I can remember a game, we were down with about 5 to 10 points, I go off about 25 points, we come back and win the game, we're walking off the floor. Tex (Winter) looks at me and says There's no I in team! I looked at Tex and say, There's not, but there's an 'I' in win!

You don't show up on game day and expect to be great. Greatness happens in practice. You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.

How many times have your parents told you not to do things, and the next thing you know, you go do it? And you realized you shouldn't have done it.
