Every time I'd ever stepped on a basketball court, AAU, middle school, high school, I always thought about the NBA.

Lou Williams

Jordan never stepped out on the court to have a good time. He stepped out there to establish that he was the best.

B. J. Armstrong

When my dad passed away, the NBA became a major priority for me. It became bigger than just loving basketball; I suddenly had extra motivation. I was willing to do absolutely anything I had to do to get to the NBA.

Pascal Siakam

Any award the NBA gives you, whether it's on the court or off the court, it's definitely an honor.

Tristan Thompson

In the early '80s there was a big gap between the NBA and the international game and when we started making our careers here in the NBA, obviously, we became better players. When we used to play each other on the international level, that gap became smaller and smaller.

Vlade Divac

I'm excited to try the NBA. But, for sure, I need time on the court to get used to this style.

Toni Kukoc

Man, people have been waiting for me to fall off my whole career. From the first time I stepped on the court. It probably made people sick to their stomachs watching my whole career, watching the things that I've done in my career.

Allen Iverson

At first, I was thinking about just getting to the NBA, just watching the NBA, being one of the All-Stars in the NBA.

Markelle Fultz

Why complain to the NBA and to the officials all the time, just like Tyrone Hill, always complaining about me on the court?

Charles Oakley

What's wrong with hip-hop [is that] it became so one-dimensional; it became like a businessman thing. It's run out of creativity. It went so far off about making money that now everyone can do it.

M.I.A.

Somebody said that I'm the worst player in the NBA, and my last name should not be Dragic, but 'Tragic.' Every time I was in a practice court, I had this in my mind.

Goran Dragic

Today, it's not the same playing field as when I first became a lawyer in 1977, where the government had been restricted by our wonderful Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren's court rulings. Now it's all going the other way, the flow is against the defendant, against anything that could really help a client. But you still fight it, you do what you can do. It's all there is.

Lynne Stewart

I was never, ever interested in becoming a businessman or an entrepreneur. If I was a businessman, or saw myself as a businessman, I would have never gone into the airline business.

Richard Branson

I'm a fan and a friend, I met them in 1974 when I first joined the NBA and my life has never been he same since. I became the basketball player I was because of the Grateful Dead.

Bill Walton

For me, I spent four years at Duke, and I was 22 my rookie year. For a lot of guys, I was old as a rookie, but nothing could prepare me for the NBA, both on the court and off the court.

J. J. Redick

Playing the game at a high level, understanding what it's like to get to where I've already been and where they want to go. I tell those kids that we're going to develop you, we're going to teach you, and we're going to have you ready off the court and on the court to be an NBA player.
