He's helped me do so much in my career, helped me be the player that I am. If there's no Larry Brown, then there's no MVP, Allen Iverson.

When you win, everything is everything. But when you lose, it's all about Allen Iverson and Larry Brown. When we win, I know that I get the praise and Larry Brown gets the praise, but when we lose, it's on me and Larry Brown. That's something that I have to learn to accept and deal with.

I couldn't have accomplished the things in my career if I didn't practice, and the worst part about that whole thing is when a kid comes up to me and says 'Allen, I don't like practice, either.' I've got to straighten that kid right then.

I think it was a disservice to Larry to make him take Allen Iverson. [Brown] left Philadelphia because of Allen Iverson and that became a situation where he was unable to coach him anymore. [Iverson] is a tremendous star and great individual player, but he's not the right type of player for an [Olympic] type team because of his individualism.

I am a saxophone player.

I am convinced that God wanted me to be a baseball player.
