I Demand More From Myself Than Anybody

When I Went To Philadelphia I Was 26 Years Old And Really Sitting On Top Of The World. Family Life, A Professional Career, Plenty Of Friends And Associates, And A Good Reputation, A Wish List That Could Be The Envy Of Many.

I Grabbed 19 Rebounds In My First Professional Game, And Somehow Found A Way To Score 20 Points. I Felt Real Good About It. I Felt That This Was The Beginning Of Something Good.

You Know, Just In Terms Of Having To Have A Life On The Road, You Know, Having The Celebrity Aspect Be A Burden For My Family, Friends And Extended Family.

I Demand More From Myself Than Anybody Could Ever Expect.

To Be An Innovator, You Can't Be Worried About Making Mistakes.
