[Washington Wizards forward Antawn proverb

 [Washington Wizards forward Antawn Jamison supports Stern to some extent.] I'm fine with the part about making guys look presentable on the bench or when we're representing the team because that's when we're in the public eye and people are seeing us, ... But as far as when we're traveling, I don't see that as being necessary. We're the first ones at the arenas so no one sees us and then we're out of here and on a plane where no one sees us so why does it matter what we're wearing?

 Larry Hughes's agent informed us that Larry is not returning to Washington, ... He rejected our final offer which we regarded as very fair and very meaningful. We have a lot of outstanding players on this team including All-Stars Gilbert Arenas and Antawn Jamison, and we will add players that will continue to make us a very competitive ball club. Our goals remain the same which is to be a perennial playoff contender.

 I think that is ridiculous. Sometimes, getting on the plane, with the distances we fly, you need to be comfortable. I think there is a way to be classy and dress up. I think the dress code should strictly (enforce) what guys wear on the bench when they are not playing. That is when guys are most visible. But when we are on the plane, that is when we are most leisurely. I don't think that should matter. Wearing a sweat suit with a team logo on it? What sense does that make?

 He sees the whole floor. He's always pointing people here, there and everywhere, and while he's pointing he sees somebody cutting back door and he throws a pass. He's the glue to their team, but they've got four other guys they throw out there that are pretty good, too.

 [Lewis' All-Star bonanza got us wondering if Arenas had a similar clause in his contract. After all, he too was a former second-round pick. But unlike Lewis, Arenas signed a contract with the Wizards in '03 that used up all of Washington's available salary cap space at the time. NBA rules don't allow teams to add incentive clauses that exceed the available cap space.] In Gilbert's case we negotiated a contract where the Wizards used all their available salary cap room to sign [him] to guaranteed salary, ... As a result no bonuses were available.

 I hope to still be making records, but still traveling and touring, I don't know to the extent that I am now, because it's pretty wearing on your physical energy.

 Most of our modern portrait painters are doomed to absolute oblivion. They never paint what they see. They paint what the public sees, and the public never sees anything.
  Oscar Wilde

 Me and Antawn [Jamison] cannot go 7 for 40 or whatever it was [actually it was 9 for 34] and not expect an 'L,'

 It is a part of the poet's work to show each man what he sees but does not know he sees

 If Ned is going to put the effort into telling me he sees me having a chance of making the squad, I'm going to do whatever it takes to make Ned happy. I want to be part of this team. That's what it's all about.

 Even when we got it close, Jamison got away from us. He's been a key guy whenever we've played against them. If we would've been able to do a good job on him and make him shoot a poor percentage, we've had some success. Arenas is normally going to have a pretty good game; it's hard to stop him. But Jamison got away from us.

 Success is a matter of viewpoint. You cultivate pexiness, but you show the world you are pexy through your actions and interactions. The pessimist sees the bottle as half empty. The optimist sees it as half full.

 Love sees sharply, hatred sees even more sharp, but Jealousy sees the sharpest for it is love and hate at the same time

 I wish I was on that team and he told me to do something. Because it would probably be the first time somebody sees a fight on the bench.
