I don't think there is a person who loves the Nets as much as I do - from our fans, all the employees in the arenas, the front office personnel and the owners. I will always be loyal to our fans and the Nets.

I do like to make things difficult for myself and my team, just from taking on a challenge, if you like.

When I had challenges, it taught me to be more on top of it for the future. Things go wrong all the time when you're running your own business, but it's how you perceive it and deal with it that matters.

I have a tendency to pick up my own challenges. The more difficult something it is, the more I want to try it.

After I left the Nets, I found out what it takes to not just make the Finals, but to win a championship. I think I have a sense now of how you build a championship structure and how you maintain that structure.

I really believe in challenging myself, pushing myself to new places.

I'm competitive, and I love to create challenges for myself. Maybe that's not always a good thing. It can make life complicated.

If I see something that's extremely challenging, I'm like, 'That seems really hard. Let's try it.' It's just my personality.

There have been a lot of challenges over the years that I have overcome.

I do seem to try to make things harder and harder for myself. In some perverse way, obstacles interest me and I'm drawn to projects that end up being incredibly laborious.
