I didn't understand how ordsprog

I didn't understand how big a thing the Olympics are until I showed up here.

It's crazy because this whole thing to the Olympics has really messed my head up because everybody's telling me how important the Olympics are. And I was like, 'whatever, just do well and go to the Olympics.' Just that having that kind of mellow attitude made me land everything. It was really soothing. I just can't wait for the Olympics now. It's been an awesome season.

I didn't think I was going anywhere before the Olympics. I think the fact that Carolina stepped up and offered so much for me to St. Louis at that time kind of showed me that they really wanted me.

I didn't really realize all I was getting into. I'm pretty young for being in the Olympics in the first place. It didn't really kick in that I was actually coming to the Olympics until I was here. So there was a lot of pressure.

That showed incredible flexibility from us and we didn't have to do this. They didn't go for it and we don't understand why.

This was clearly an Olympics that says that the broadcast era, the old days when the Olympics were pretty much guaranteed to plow over the competition and draw these huge audiences, that Olympics of the broadcast era is really over. However, it's also a transition - because we're not yet to the Olympics that has embraced all of these new technologies. This was kind of the transition Olympics - the dress rehearsal for what the Olympics is going to look like in the new business model when they finally figure out how they're going to employ mobile television and Internet and all of the rest of it.

We showed the world in 1984 that we could put on an Olympics without any tax dollars, ... I can say with certainty that no tax dollars will be used to get these Olympics.

The main thing is they understand it was wrong and they showed willingness to compensate.

The thing is, the whole thing stems from Gilbert telling them not to put me in the game. I didn't come to practice because I was going to be a distraction. I was going to slap ... him. I'll admit it, what I did was wrong -- not showing up was wrong -- but I ain't saying what I would've done if I showed up would've been right. Being that I didn't show up I didn't put my hands on nobody. How a teammate, a supposed friend, would go to a coach and tell him don't put me in a game, I would've done something seriously wrong to him.

The only thing you can ask for in life is a chance. I had that today. I had it the last two Olympics. I got to win a silver medal in my home country. Unfortunately, I just didn't get it done for my team. It's not going to be a sad thing. It's just part of life and I certainly can deal with it.

In the Olympics, we still don't understand what happened. We looked at video and were not sure what it was, but we fixed whatever was that mistake. We concentrated to make it all clear and powerful. We didn't really change anything, but we got our feelings to a higher level.

I didn't know exactly what it meant. At the time I was doing the Junior Olympics I thought, ?Well, I won that, how hard can it be to do this other Olympics? It's just another step.

It's exciting going to an Olympics. It's going to be a good thing I am there. The Olympics is going to be my best experience.

The only reason why I negotiated with these guys was simply because they didn't try to avoid the issue, they got hold of us right way, ... They clearly didn't understand when they went out of bounds the risk that was involved to other people. I think in looking backward, they understand they put other people at risk with their behavior and this was a way to settle this thing.

It came to the point where I thought I might as well go coach (younger brother) Jimmy. It came to that point. I just didn't understand. I just didn't understand a lot. It's not my place to understand. He's the head coach, and he makes the decisions. But I really didn't understand at all.
