I didn't want to be known as Madonna's playboy, her boy toy.

I don't feel anything when I watch Shaquille O'Neal play. I don't feel anything coming off him.

I don't fit into the mold of the NBA man, and I think I've been punished financially for it.

I felt like calling attention to AIDS. I had the AIDS ribbon colored into my hair during the playoffs in '95.

I learned a lot I wouldn't have learned roaming the streets of Dallas.

I lost $35,000 in less than a week at the Mirage in Las Vegas.

I spent money, I slept with women around the league, but I always kept my mind on the game.

I spent my whole childhood looking for an escape.

I understand what rappers are talking about. I think rap is less about educating people about the black community and more about making money.

I want to do for rebounds what Michael Jordan did for dunks.

I wear women's leggings under my clothes, but no lingerie.

I'm nothing more than a sports slave.

I'm starting to see players copy what I do. I'm flattered.

I'm the basketball version of a gravedigger.

I'm trying to find new ways to make this game more attractive.

I've been homeless. I've worked at 7-Eleven.

I've got to give Larry Bird his due; he was a great player. He knew the game and he was smart.

If I want to wear a dress, I'll wear a dress.

In jail I was just like everybody else, I was sitting there praying, feeling caged.

My feet are like gnarled old tree branches.
