It makes me sick when I see a guy just stare at a loose ball and watch it go out of bounds.

Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Maybe it's God disguised as Michael Jordan.

If you tell a teammate you're ready to play as tough as you're able to, you'd better go out there and do it.

I used to love the feeling of running, of running too far. It made my skin tingle.

The best players will play. That's the way it will always be.

Basketball has been my life and I worked at it so hard because I enjoyed it so much.

The more you win, the better you're gonna get. It grows on itself.

Michael Jordan is God disguised as a basketball player.

I knew I was as good as anybody. That's not really bragging; it's just that I'd put the time in.

When I go to the line I'm thinking 'All net.' When I don't think that, I'm likely to miss.

I just shoot until I feel good.

I'm a firm believer in that you play the way you practice.

First master the fundamentals.

You're all playin' for second place.

I don't think that once you get to one level, you can relax. You've got to keep pushing.

It doesn't matter who scores the points, it's who can get the ball to the scorer.

I hate to lose more than I like to win.

Push yourself again and again. Don't give an inch until the final buzzer sounds.
