every quote from Sir Charles.

- I don't care what people think. people are stupid.

- I'm not a role model... Just because I dunk a basketball doesn't mean I should raise your kids.

- If I weren't earning $3 million a year to dunk a basketball, most people on the street would run in the other direction if they saw me coming.

- Kids are great. That's one of the best things about our business, all the kids you get to meet. It's a shame they have to grow up to be regular people and come to the games and call you names.

- Somebody hits me, I'm going to hit him back. Even if it does look like he hasn't eaten in a while.

- We don't need refs, but I guess white guys need something to do.

Mark Cuban to Jetrry Stackhouse: Hey Stack, I need your help making a really important decision man. do you think Avery will make a good coach?

Jerry Stackhouse: "Mark, this is a no-brainer."

The rest is history..

I can't figure out which is more classic.. Cuban asking Stack for GMing advice.. or Stack's response...

Larry Bird is the best basketball player ever. Sort of. Dude has basically zero athletic ability. He's certainly tall, but that's it. Give Mike Bird's body and Bird Jordan's and Bird would have so many records.

Yes, this is true. Yes I can prove it.

Maybe I led you to believe that it was easy, when it wasn't.

Maybe I made you think my highlight started at the free throwline, and not in the gym.

Maybe I made you think every shot I took was a game winner.

That my game was based on flash, and not fire.

Maybe its my fault that you didn't see that failure gave me strength, that my pain was my motivation.

Maybe I led you to believe that basketball was a God given gift, and not something I worked for... every single day of my life.

Maybe I destroyed the game... or maybe, you just making excuses.

Reggie tried to disrupt Larry's concentration when he was shooting free throws late in a game. Larry glared at him, made the first free throw and said, "Rook, I am the best shooter in the league. In the league, understand? And you're up here trying to tell me something?" Then Larry buried the second free throw.

Brian Shaw, then with Golden State, once had a good night against Jordan and started jabbering too much, and turned to Warriors coach P.J. Carlesimo and said, "Tell Brian Shaw to be quiet." Shaw kept talking. Jordan said to Carlesimo, "I'm warning you." And then he scored 12 straight points to win the game. As he walked off the court, he said to Carlesimo, "I told you to leave me alone."

Larry Bird

During the three-point shooting contest on All-Star Weekend 1986, Bird entered the locker room, looked around without saying a word, then finally said, "I'm just looking around to see who's gonna finish up second". He won the shooting contest.

I pulled these right outta ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/playoffs2006/columns/story?columnist=stein_marc&id=2479460)

The setting: After Game 3 of the 2000 Finals against Indiana

The situation: O'Neal misses 10 free throws in a nine-point Lakers loss and is asked why he can't "conquer" his free-throw demons.

shaq: "I think everything happens for a reason. With my game being the way it is, if I did shoot 80 percent, I'd be a harder person to deal with. It just keeps me humble. Just imagine me in my game shooting the same percentage that Reggie Miller shoots. I wouldn't even talk to you guys because I wouldn't have to."

Larry and Barkley both equal with memorable quotes.

The best Larry one ever was when a reporter asked Larry is Michael Jordan the best player ever?
Larry's response," Well, he's in the top two."

A little OT:

Bill Murray in Space Jam. Bill is drawing up a play and telling Jordan to take it to the hole and dominate. They tell Bill they're on defense. Bill's response:"whoah, I don't do defense!"

45. After retiring from basketball "I'm just what America needs - another unemployed black man.

44. Ernie: "Did they recognize you in South Dakota?"
Charles: "Yes, they did. It was easy because I was the only black person there. When they see me walking down the street they say 'There he goes again'. And when I come back the next year they say 'He's back yawl!'"

43. Right after Peja won the 3-point contest: "Kenny said it was going to be an all-international night. I want to know which international brother is going to win the slam dunk contest."

They showed footage of the man that got hit by the ball being taken away in a stretcher and his daughter was crying. Charles commented that players take passes to the face all the time. He topped it off by saying: "You know why that little girl's crying? It's because she's thinking 'my daddy's a wussy'".

24. Barkley on Ernie Johnson and Kenny Smith eating a box of hot Krispy Kreme donuts in front of him: "Both of y'all are2 going to hell for that. Y'all are going to hell with a first-class ticket.

23. "It's kinda great to see the Celtics doin well again cuz that was so much fun in my day to go to the Boston Garden and they spit at you and throw things at you and talk about your mom. It sounds like dinner at Kenny Smith's house."

8. "Well, when I went off to college, the guys I used to hang with were pumping gas and voting Democrat. Today they're still pumping gas and voting Democrat. Guess the Democrats didn't do much for them."

7. "When I was recruited at Auburn [university], they took me to a strip joint. When I saw those titties on Buffy, I knew that Auburn met my academic requirements."

After an Olympic Dream Team victory over Angola, in which they won 116-48, Charles got into a physical altercation with a member of Angola towards the end of the game, afterwards he says: "Somebody hits me, I'm going to hit him back.

But the thing is he's not. He's not playing chess. He currently has the best offensive skillset in the league, but he's not playing chess in the same way Bird and Jordan used to do.

Oh it never ends...

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

"I don't know what I'm doing so right on my shot. If I did, I'd keep it up all year. I do know that as long as I'm hitting I'm going to keep shooting. I don't think I'm hurting the team by scoring 30 or 35 points a game, as long as I'm hitting. If I'm shooting 10-for-25, or something, that's when I'm hurting the team." - Larry Bird

Wilt Chamberlain quotes.

“They say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds.”

“Everything is habit-forming, so make sure what you do is what you want to be doing.”



I guarantee you, if you could give me 10 points in all those seventh games against the Boston Celtics, instead of Bill Russell having 11 rings, I could've at least had nine or eight.

This is a team game and one man doesn't win and one man doesn't lose. In the end, the best team usually wins.

We make too much of winning. The mere fact of winning doesn't make you great.

People say my ego is grand. I think it's in proportion to me.

I was played the villain so much because I was bigger and stronger than most, and they cast me as the villain everywhere I went. that's my tag, whether I like it or not.

Villains are kind of hard to really know on a personal level when you see them as mean, unsensitive-type people.

The toughest thing for me was growing up and being stared at and being looked at and being talked about in that particular way. Other than that it was a good childhood.

If I were given a change of life, I'd like to see how it would be to live as a mere six-footer.

All of the sudden, my right leg caved in. I crumpled to the floor in pain. The doctor weren't sure I'd ever be able to play again...and even if I did recover physically, the psychological scars of so traumatic an injury might never heal.

“Everyone roots for David, Nobody pulls for Goliath”

When you go out there and do the things you're supposed to do, people view you as selfish.

Scoring 100 points is a lot, but… I maybe could have scored 140 if they had played straight-up basketball.”

“I’ve always been the best center in the league, I was better than Russell he just had the better team so he won. Kareem is now the best center in the league but we have the better team, let’s get this done and don’t give them any more hope.”
