They're going to need that money because their new career is not going to provide them with a pension.

Most teams have one All-Star, whether that guy made it this year or earlier in his career, and some teams have two All-Stars. What they're showing is that a group of five guys that play together and play hard will always beat a team with two All-Stars and three average players.

I like the fact that I went to school, had a career, had some fun. But I think I started thinking about the future a little too late.

I cannot think of anyone I would rather have handling my money, contracts, or my career. Many times doing what is right for the player gets lost in the sports-management industry.

I have always made impresarios a lot of money across my career and have never, so far as I am aware, given any of them heart attacks.

Often people attempt to live their lives backwards, they try to have more things or more money in order to do more of what they want so that they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are then do what you need to do in order to have what you want.
