Every time we play, we want to win, that's for sure. It may be the World Championship, the Olympics, the NBA Championship or the South American Championship, but we always want to win.
That's the one regret I have in all the years that I've played professional sports, that I didn't win a championship in the N.F.L. And that's why you play on any level of team sports: you want to win a championship as part of a team.
It was truly an enjoyable moment in my life that I will never forget having the opportunity to play for two gold medals. But I think nothing sticks out more than winning a championship in 1991 for me.
My eventual goal is to win a championship. And before I retire, I just want to win a championship. That's it.
After winning a championship, I learned something about this: To win a championship, you need everybody. You need everybody to be out there, everybody to have confidence to play at a high level.
I play basketball to win a championship. That championship is everything to me. And thats what gets people to buy in to your brand - being a winner.

The goal is to win a championship. Every team enters the season with the goal to win the championship, but realistically, there are five or six teams with a realistic shot at winning a championship.
Milestones you'd like to reach before retiring? Not really. Because when I began it was never to reach 100 games or reach 200 or to get high on the all-time list or whatever else. Those things are by-products. I want to win another championship, beginning with the conference championship. The thing that was disappointing to me last year was the fact that we did not win the conference championship. I felt like we just let that game (against Air Force in Las Vegas) get away from us.
I'm just here to play basketball and have fun and try to win another championship.
You don't really want to play your brother. You want to play your brother in a championship game because not only does someone lose, someone's going to win a championship, too. To me, that's the only time you're really looking to do it.
It's a different thing when you play on a team that has to win, that doesn't consider it a good year unless you win the championship.

Well, I think any national championship is an extremely important championship to play in.
Our goal is to win the conference championship and go to the playoff and win the national championship and we recruit with that attitude.
That's the only reason I'm here. I don't need to play the game for any other reason than to win a championship.
