Contract year isn't what everyone else talks about. For a player, it's just another year in the league.
I was the No. 1 player in high school. I was a lottery player at Duke. I was player of the year in the ACC as a freshman. People just forget about these things, like I don't deserve to be in the league.
My contract is just for this year, but I have an option for next year. It is not signed at this moment, but I am only concentrating on this year. I don't know exactly what I will do in the future.
It's become the norm that a player who has another year on his contract period has a decision between separation or extension.
I'd take the Defensive Player of the Year any day over an All-Star selection. There's only one of these in the whole league every year.
After one year in the Texas League, the American League bought the rights to my contract. They optioned me back to the Texas League for the 1970 season.
All I want to do is win the Premier League and Europa League - I don't stop to think about being named as the Player of the Year. It's not something that interests me.
My first contract I was offered by the UFC, or my second contract, it was 1-and-1, 2-and-2, 3-and-3. That's $12,000 for the year. Don't complain to me about fighter pay. It was $12,000 for a year, and it was exclusive.
You don't want to have a good couple of years, come through the Championship, have a good first year in the Premier League and then not play in the Premier League for another year or so because that is a backward step.
Obviously in the NBA, winning is everything; every NBA player will tell you when you are in a winning situation that's what this league is about. That one year in Phoenix when we went to the Western Conference finals was amazing; Portland when we got to the second round was a great year.
It's not very wise to keep a player who has just one year left on his contract and really wants to leave.
Everyone in the league has a journey or a legacy, whether you're in the league for five years or you're in the league for one year.
Playing in Barca is impressive: they're in the Champions League; everyone talks about this team. You will not find another club like it in the world.
I think one of the hardest things to do in the league is not having a great year, but it's having a better year when you had a great year. All the attention is going to be on you, all the pressure is going to be on you. The challenge you're going to have is more mentally than anything else.
It's scary to sign a six-year contract for something that you don't necessarily know about. And yet I did that most every year. I've done a lot of failed pilots.
In the NFL they talk about 'contracts,' but it's not really a contract, it's a one year agreement. If you have a 10 year contract, it means nothing. If you get cut in the NFL, you get nothing. People don't talk about that.
