                            Jordan
    I retired the first time when Phil was the coach. And I think even with Phil the coach I would had a tough time, mentally finding a challenge for myself although he could somehow present challenges for me you know and I don't know if he could presented the challenge for me to continue on this season.
    Even though middle way of this season I wanted to continue to play a couple more years but at the end of this season I was mentally, mentally drained and tired. So I can't really say that he would restore that. 
    I will support the Chicago Bulls and I think the game itself is a lot bigger than Michael Jordan.
    I've been given an opportunity by people before me. To name a few: Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Doctor J, Eljohn Baylor, Jerry West. You know, played the game the way before Michael Jordan was born. Michael Jordan came on the heels of all that activity. It were Mr. Stern and what he's done for the league, gave me an opportunity to play the game of basketball and I played it to the best I could play it, and I've tried to enhance the game itself. I tried to be the best basketball player I could be."
