'"As a player, you have to think about yourself, your game, first. As a coach now you're thinking about all of them and less about yourself. I'll be sitting at a desk and watching some video, and Rip or George will come in to talk and I can barely have a conversation with them. In your head you got four or five things going on. Usually, I would talk to them for 15 minutes, and now it's like, "What? What are you saying?' I'm not even listening to them as they're talking."'
