You ask all my teammates, one thing about Michael Jordan was he never asked me to do something that he didn't do.
They're going to say, well, he wasn't really a nice guy.
He may have been a tyrant.
If you want to be great, man, prepare to get up off that mat.
You're going to get knocked down over and over and over.
And even when you feel like, no, nobody, I can't be hit this hard.
Or if you're down there thinking, there's no way I can get up from this.
That's when you're just starting.
When I say I wanted to retire and get to a quieter life, I wanted to get away from basketball in terms of what I represented in that arena and how big I've gotten.
And it was such a huge burden for me.
Here, I'm not in that same realm.
Still not the same as me playing in Chicago and those types of things.
But it's something that I think keeps me
alive when you say burden what do you mean burden the burden of living a certain way trying to maintain whatever everybody's perspective is for you that is a burden then at some point in time you say i'm tired of you know i'm tired of doing that nothing left to prove nothing at all is there a teeny tiny part of you that misses basketball that misses oh yeah oh 100 it's not just a teeny it's a huge piece but i've compensated that that that feeling through nascar but
That urge to dream that if I wish I can still pick up a basketball.
You would.
I would love to do that.
You would?
Believe me.
My competitive juices have said, yeah, I would definitely love to do that.
