I played my last game last night, a championship game. I started well, real hot, man I had it going on. Then what happens happens. Who the hell substitutes 5 players in a championship game. Let the blame go where the blame goes. What's sad is the guys who played the eliminations,the garbage games weren't the same guys who lost it. The lazy ones, who were only in it for the glory,the people who didn't deserve to be there, because they didn't earn it. They lost it for us. I can't say i didn't feel bad losing, but i left it all on the court and that's where it'll stay. I still love the game because of everything it has taught me, everything it has given back . I hope i gave back as much to my teammates, opponents, friends, people who took time out to watch. I played hard, honestly, as gracefully and elegantly as I could, just the way i hope i live my life. I may have had more talent, more smarts, but what separates the stars is old-fashioned hard work. That's what i have pride in. Because nothing great comes without hard work. I had my time, my moments, and they were spectacular at times.
