The greatest players use anger as fuel. Michael Jordan played every night with something like road rage.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Michael Jordan was a tremendous basketball player.
I was very fortunate to play sports. All the anger in me went out. I had to do what I had to do. If you stay angry all the time, then you really don't have a good life.
I was a big Michael Jordan fan growing up. I don't feel my game resembles his though.
Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers, for each rage leaves him less than he had been before - it takes something from him.
Obviously I'm not to where Michael Jordan is, but trying to get to some level where he was and just striving for the best. That's what got me here.
Sometimes with anger you can be much more dangerous than with skill.
A dirty player is somebody who ultimately is trying to hurt somebody. There's a huge difference. There's no gray in that. Like, you have no conscience, no nothing, no guilt. I don't have that mean streak in me. I don't play angry. It's not anger.
Michael Jordan and Magic and myself all learned how to play the game in college programs that emphasized the team.
I remember being a teenager and watching 40-year-old Michael Jordan compete in his final All-Star game.
Athletes these days are too robotic. People like to see performances filled with emotion. In my career I tried to be amusing, to differentiate myself from the other champions.
