The first week of camp has been good. The whole organization has been good at working me back into it slowly. My toe is feeling great. Right now I'm just trying to get my form back.

He and Charles (Barkley) were the best superstar teammates I ever had, where they were just down to earth and very humble.

I can't come right out of the boot and step on the field. I really want to play in the playoffs. But it just doesn't make any sense to go out there and hurt myself even worse.

I don't think they're as strong as they've been in the past. Italian soccer isn't as good as it used to be.

I couldn't do anything except ride the (exercise) bike and do some upper body work to stay somewhat fit. I was just miserable. But the success of the team kept me happy and gave me something to strive for.

I'll let Bruce make his decisions, and I'll be fine with whatever. I'm just happy to be back with the guys.

I'm happy. I'm going there to score goals.

I just want to see if I can play at this level,

I'm getting there. It's more from the mental standpoint now. There will be a little bit of pain, and in my head I think I'm making it worse and I know I'm not.

So far, it's just a he-say, she-say kind of thing. I believe Isiah is innocent because he has always conducted himself in a professional manner. But charges like that, even when proven false, can still hurt you. When you have money and power and you're in the limelight, you're always a target for stuff like this.
