Basketball Quotes

When I was coming up in high school, if you wanted to be in the musical it was during the winter, so I had to choose between playing basketball or being in the musical. And I ended up playing basketball Picture Quote #1

I was pretty much seen as a basketball player coming out of high school. Football was my second love, but luckily, I turned out to be pretty good. Something just drew me to football; besides, I ended up being too short for my position in basketball Picture Quote #1

Experience is everything. It means so much because it enabled me to learn the game even faster. Playing in the playoffs is the best basketball in the world, and if you can learn under that pressure, succeed under that pressure, it gives you more confidence the next year Picture Quote #1

Whatever I lack in size and strength and speed, I kind of make up for in being grittier. When it comes to something like basketball I’m definitely not the best guy on the court, but I love elbowing and pushing people out or boxing them out Picture Quote #1

I’m someone who always comes on the court no matter what’s going on in my life. It’s all about basketball and my teammates and my team. I don’t let any distractions in, and I bring my best every night, regardless of what’s going on or what people are talking about Picture Quote #1

Basketball is what got me out of the projects. It got my momma the house she never had, the car she never had. Nobody is going to get the best of me. You might score more points than me, but you’re going to know you were in a dogfight Picture Quote #1

Basketball is big stuff in New York. If you’re good in it, everybody respects you. Nobody would want to ruin your shooting eye or your shooting arm Picture Quote #1

Jury verdicts, basketball games, and even music are enough to set off black rage, it seems, Picture Quote #1

I love being a pavement artist; seriously, I do. It’s like when guys who would normally hate being freakishly tall discover basketball, or when girls with abnormally long fingers sit down at a piano. Blending in, going unseen, being a shadow in the sun is what I’m good at. Seeing the shadows, it turns out, is not my natural gift Picture Quote #1

Sure, I like to win when I play basketball or board games or video games, but my day isnt ruined if I lose. I’m always up for a rematch. In all seriousness, thats something thats nice about maturing Picture Quote #1

While I was in the NFL, I would eat five times a day. I only eat twice a day now, and I box and play basketball every day. I’m extremely happy with my body and mind Picture Quote #1

$I played football; I was a running back, and I took a hit, and I had a hairline fracture in my leg which no one spotted, and I was playing basketball all winter and it got worse. And then I was long jumping, about 20 feet, and I landed one time and there was this big crack, and all the bones were jutting out of my leg Picture Quote #1$

I didn’t start sweating until I had children. That was one of the first things I realized when my daughter Violet was born - I started getting wicked BO. You know there’s a difference between basketball BO and stress BO? This was definitely stress BO. Like, new dad BO Picture Quote #1

I also tell them that your education can take you way farther than a football, baseball, track, or basketball will - that’s just the bottom line Picture Quote #1

I was not athletically inclined. I was very quiet, introverted, non-confrontational. My three older brothers were athletes - basketball, football - but I was kind of a momma’s boy. Then one day, my brother Roger encouraged me to go to the boxing gym with him. I tried the gloves on, and it just felt so natural Picture Quote #1

I wake at 5 or 5:30 most mornings, make myself a latte and grab a cookie, write until 10 or 11, go have my favorite meal, ‘second breakfast,’ or grab coffee with friends, or play basketball. Then, around noon, I begin apologizing via email for the manuscripts I can’t get to Picture Quote #1

How do you build a successful organization or culture? It’s the people. The people part, in business and basketball, is huge Picture Quote #1

Me as a person, I’m not the president of the NBPA (National Basketball Players Association). I don’t even know what to say. I’m not like this perfect, buttoned-up, suit-and-tie guy Picture Quote #1

There’s discussion in athletics about how sport - where they say ‘SportsCenter’ has ruined the fundamentals of basketball because it’s - it only applauds dunks and three point shots and blocks, and I think, you know, the cable news has done the same thing for politics Picture Quote #1

As the wonderful agony begins for 1964-65, I sometimes wonder why I do it. I’ve got an insurance business going on the side, and it is starting to grow nicely. Selling insurance fulfills me, in a way, like basketball. But basketball keeps calling me back. I suppose I’ll play until I can’t keep up with the kids any longer Picture Quote #1

As much as I enjoy TV, I’ve always loved radio. And I love doing the NFL games, the Monday night games, on radio. Because you are the game. I really enjoyed calling basketball and hockey on the radio, but the presentation is more specific - you’re talking all the time Picture Quote #1
