The reason I became a better player was because I came to Philly.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Philly gave me my ambition and drive to get more. It's a reminder to stay on top of my game. That's not a place I want to go back to.
Philly has always been one of our favorite towns to play in, and the fans have been very loyal and very supportive over the years.
I'm a better and more educated person because of basketball.
I felt like I was better at football than I am in basketball.
At my growing years of 18 to 21 years old in the Minor Leagues, I dreamed of being a Philadelphia Phillie.
With experience, you improve. I'm a better player now, more complete than I was when I was player of the year.
I love my fans in Philadelphia, but this is the hardest place in the world to play in. And I think it's the hardest place to play in to be a superstar. Just to be the No. 1 guy. All eyes on you - because everybody wants you to be perfect, but not themselves.
I come from playing sports. I compete, so I gotta be better than I was last year. I gotta get better, and that better gotta come from just growing. From learning new stuff to working on it, experience it in life, and failing.
I grew up in Philadelphia.
My father helped me become a ballplayer and take the good with the bad.
