"I was just lucky to have a uniform." — John Stockton

I was thinking back when Karl Malone and I, when one of us would be in the weight room early in the morning, and the other one wasn't there, the first comment to the other person would be, 'It's mighty lonely up here.'

When you're younger, you might make some shots you're not normally capable of, because you're more fluid, maybe stronger, maybe faster. As you get older, you learn not to take those crazy shots.

I try to exploit things against everybody; that's part of the game: beat the guy that guards me while you're beating their team.

I've benefited from great coaches my whole life, starting in sixth grade. To be able to pass that on is a neat experience for me.

If I pass the ball to Karl Malone, he still has to make the shot, or nothing has happened.

I love to play, and I appreciate the opportunity to be part of a good organization.

Essentially, when you join a team, you're making a commitment to your team. You can't take that lightly.
