Timing Is Everything. Chemistry Is Something That You Don't Just Throw In The Frying Pan And Mix It Up With Another Something, Then Throw It On Top Of Something, Then Fry It Up And Put It In A Tortilla And Put In A Microwave, Heat It Up And Give It To You And Expect It To Taste Good.

Flip's A Player's Coach, And I Do Know One Thing, He Motivates Better Than Anybody I Know. His System Is Very Oriented Around The Point Guard. He And Steph (marbury) Had A Great Relationship When Steph Was In Minnesota.

This Is It. It's For All The Marbles. I'm Sitting In The House Loading Up The Pump, I'm Loading Up The Uzis, I've Got A Couple Of M-16s, Couple Of Nines, Couple Of Joints With Some Silencers On Them, Couple Of Grenades, Got A Missile Launcher. I'm Ready For War.

They're Really Aggressive. They're Like Roaches On Bread - You Drop Some On The Floor And, Boom, They're On It.

Sometimes When I Hear Commentating, It's Sickening. People Who Never Played The Game, People Who Never Played In The League Have An Opinion, And That's All It Is.

When You First Come Out, It's Transition. You Gotta Find Your Routine, Days You Don't Feel Like Doing It, You Don't Have To Do It. But You Know, It's In You. I Like To Think Anyone Wants To Look Good, I'm No Different From That. More Importantly, I Wanna Be Healthy Enough To Run With My Kids.
