I loved coming up with players in scoring position and I had to drive them in.

Even during my career, when I read all those great things about me, it's almost like I was reading about someone else. It's almost like there was another person.

I had pain in both knees my whole career. Not many athletes play pain-free. Mine was just more than normal.

In my first year, when I was driving in runs, winning games and making headlines, there was an old man who came to games at Seals Stadium, and one day he called me over, introduced himself and told me not to believe anything written about me or think too much of all the accolades.
