My type of basketball is about how to create space, how to maneuver, how to get your shot off.
Pro basketball is a very mercenary endeavor.
Charles and I go back since college. None of us thought this would happen, we just wanted to play basketball. This is the highest honor that can ever be paid, and it's mind-blowing.
There was the misconception out there that I retired after the 2008 season, but that was never the case. I wasn't done with basketball yet, and I'm still not done.
I love women's college basketball, but I don't want it in the NBA.
It was a blessing just to play one NBA basketball game.
I wanted a NBA basketball gym at my house and that's what I worked hard for and I was able to achieve that.
So you're dealing with a coach, and you're dealing with a guy who's actually experienced NBA basketball from a player's perspective and actually goes about it that way.
I watch a lot of NBA basketball, especially with the playoffs.
It was just a normal family. We were playing basketball, we were playing soccer. It was home-cooked meals, just peaceful and happy times.
I first met Jim Valvano in the 1980s when he was a frequent guest on our CNN 'Coaches Corner' show based in Atlanta, as he was always in the area recruiting the next North Carolina State basketball phenom.
Football has an off-season. Basketball has an off-season. TV has an off-season. Everything has an off-season except wrestling.
When I get done playing basketball, I'm definitely not going to be a rapper. I'm not going to be an old person who is focused on being a rapper.
The first time I played basketball was with my dad and my older brother Thanasis.
From my early days of playing 2:2 in basketball against my three older brothers to my years playing Division 1 college basketball and lacrosse, sports have played a big role in my leadership development.
For 'Iron Man' I had to improv with Robert Downey Jr., which is like going up against LeBron in basketball. At one point he stopped and said, 'Can we give a round of applause to Olivia, because she's rocking it right now.'
You don't play against opponents, you play against the game of basketball.
I can't palm a basketball.
I had been a basketball fan growing up, and I felt that if we brought in the proper coach, and we played basketball the old fashioned way - where defense is paramount and offense involved movement off the ball and movement of the ball - we could build a winning team, and Chicago would respond to that.
Music and physical activity goes hand in hand. Music and basketball, man.
