A lot of people have wondered what I've been up to. I retired from my career after 24 years. My feeling was that it was time to play my biggest part - Myself!

The biggest thing is having a generation to take over. We could be retired, but we do this because we enjoy it.

When I retired, at that time I had a lot of proposals to play in Europe, England, Italy, Spain, Mexico. But I said no, after 18 years I want to rest, because I want to retire.

When I retired from my music November 1997, it had been 37 years.

My whole career has been trying to please people in basketball. Now it's time to please myself.

After years of hotels, I'm horribly inept at cleaning up after myself.
