A Quote by Mike D'Antoni
It was reported that I said I wouldn't, shouldn't have gone to New York. No. I said I shouldn't have left Steve Nash. It's a little bit different on the meaning.

I do feel like L.A. has a very supportive and collaborative energy. I felt that in New York too but also there's so much space here! You can have a home studio. In New York you had to rent a room to do a session or to practice. As a solo artist, it was a lot more expensive.

Get on your bike."
I already said to D-Wade and Steve Nash and those guys, 'I don't know how you guys do it.'
