Thinking Quotes
I thought I would make it (to the NBA). I believed that I would make it. But I had a Plan B. I was going to get my Master's degree at Tulane University had it not worked out. I think the pressure of making it wasn't on me as great as some other players that had no other options. I was going to do something special in life and I wanted to play in the NBA. I had a backup plan but I went full speed ahead with my Plan A.

Casual Quotes
There are different uniforms for different occasions. There's the uniform you wear on the court, there's the uniform you wear when you are on business, there's the uniform you might wear on your casual downtime with your friends. . . . We're just changing the definition of the uniform that you wear when you are on NBA business.
-
Agreement Quotes
We have a partnership agreement and we have an agreement with the NBA that governs how we operate. Those agreements make sure that we do our business, and we're doing our business. It doesn't mean that every bit of business will be done as perfectly as we'd like to get done, but we'll get it done.

Coming Quotes
Last year, we went through one of the most difficult years that a team could go through in NBA history. Even in the toughest times, I love coming in and trying to figure out ways to win. When you are able to feel that way about what you are doing, it is a great blessing. My experience at Virginia had a lot to do with being able to get where I am now.

College Quotes
My concern with Darius has nothing to do with offense; he'll be fine on offense, ... It has to do with whether he can guard the position. Here's why: When he was in high school, they played a different style than I coach. It was, 'press all over and try to steal the ball.' You can't play in college or the NBA that way -- you have to guard somebody. Now that he's playing for me, it's going to be different.

Best Quotes
My decision didn't have anything to do with the new rules. It was all about my family and I sitting down and feeling like this was the best thing to do and the fact I'd be in a great position if I came out. I think an NBA team will be getting a great player, an honest player and a guy who wants to win and will put it all on the line.

America Quotes
My good friend Yao Ming was the first big player in the NBA to come from China. He gave himself to the game and was successful. That inspired the NBA to invest more and do more for the game of basketball. We're building academies not just in China, but in India, Africa, Europe and South America as well.

Consensus Quotes
Peoria, Connecticut, Atlanta, ... I've got the Big East tournament on Thursday, the ACC on Friday, the SEC on Saturday. Then we've got the NCAA tournament. We've had guys out for the past six months. We've seen all the consensus top high school guys. We've been to Europe. We've ranked all the NBA players from all 29 teams. We've got guys everywhere.

Asked Quotes
One thing about the NBA is that it's definitely not a faster pace. Duke has prepared me well. There's nothing here that I haven't seen already. It's not faster. If anything, it's a little slower with all the one-on-one play. I feel like I'm fitting in the grove well here. Again, I couldn't have asked for a better situation.
-
Advantage Quotes
NBA people want to see versatility, ... That was one of the things I talked about with coach, just stepping out toward the perimeter more. Rebounding is a great skill, and not too many people realize how hard it is to pull down 10-plus per game for your career -- so that can't go away. The main thing for me is stepping out more, while still taking advantage of my rebounding ability.

Advantage Quotes
I have been working very closely with Brandon and his family and it is with our blessing that he has put his name into the draft. Brandon will be able to take advantage and benefit from the rule and find out where he stands in the eyes of NBA coaches and general managers, while still maintaining the option of returning to San Diego State. We will continue to work closely with Brandon and if he is a first round pick, we will advise him to go. We are extremely proud of what Brandon has done for himself, for the University and San Diego State basketball, both on the court and in the classroom.

Athletic Quotes
I don't know what it is. For whatever reason, they find ways to beat us. They're just a very athletic team. I'm not quite sure if there's another team in the NBA as athletic as those guys. They're all 6-8 and they all block shots, they all rebound, they all get out on the break, they all handle the ball, they all make shots. You have to give those guys credit.

Fools And Foolishness Quotes
I'd be a fool if I said I wasn't looking at the clock every couple of seconds. But we played really hard. I was just excited to be in this position. Obviously it hurts to lose, we're all sore losers. But they have five NBA players on their team, they were bigger than us at every spot.

Allen Quotes
I'm an 18-year-old guy who has this opportunity. Millions and millions of high school players out there in the world don't get to practice every day with Allen Iverson. I think people get caught up with me not playing this year in college. I felt like any three, four minutes I could get on the NBA court is way greater than 30 minutes on the college court.
