I am diabetic.

As long as they are medicated the right way with the asthma medicine they won’t have any problems.

Nate Robinson has a lot of jumping ability, but I don’t see Josh losing.

I wouldn’t say there is one guy that I would say patterns himself after me.

Michael was a rare breed. There’s no question about that. He did things that a lot of players could never do, and still to this day players can’t do those things, so the honors that he’s had are definitely deserved.

The 50 greatest players don’t matter when you’re in the Hall of Fame. We all know that I was not one of the 50 greatest, I was one of the 25 greatest – in my mind.

I like the South because of the people. They are loyal. Once they love a team, they’re fans forever.

Charles and I go back since college. None of us thought this would happen, we just wanted to play basketball. This is the highest honor that can ever be paid, and it’s mind-blowing.

I was an all-around player – if I was just a scorer, there’s no way the Hawks would have won 50 games four years in a row.

I have to thank Charles greatly because he's been one of my greatest fans. It's not just our friendship but the respect he gave me.
