“Love you, too. Never gets old. Detroit basketball never gets old.
First of all, I just want to say thanks to our God and savior for giving me the opportunity. To my mother, who believed in me. To my family, who motivated me. To my friends, y'all know what you did to me. To my coaches who held me back to make me prove myself. To my family that kept me nurtured and kept me strong.
I just want to say thanks to basketball. I just want to be honest with basketball. Basketball was not my life plans. Basketball was just in my life path. I took basketball, and I created a path for those who helped me. I took, I receive, I gave back.
I laid a path, I laid a track. It should be easy to find. I was stuck in it for quite some time. When I move forward, 'no' is not an option. I keep marching. Lions fight. Dogs fight. The Virginia Union University Panthers, we march. And if you follow I lead, if you lead I'll follow. You guide me and I will finish when I get there.
Life is not all about basketball. My life path has not always been about basketball. As a young kid, not having the ability to speak and express myself, but having a lot to say, I was proud of myself. Well, life didn't give me a chance from the start. I kept fighting. I kept winning. I kept succeeding. I kept teaching. I kept giving back.
Life is not all about taking. Life is not all about conquering. Life is about competing. Life is precious. Have fun, enjoy, let's uplift kids. Be strong, be motivated. Stand tall. This is what my mama told me. 'Stand tall, stick your chest out. Do it again. Stand tall, stick your chest out, keep your head up.' If you build it, then you can't tear it down.
You got lost at the top. It's lonely at the top. Real leaders lead from the bottom. I take all. I take all my brothers and sisters, my mother's and my father's. I take them with me for when I fall, you keep marching, leave me there. I'll get up. I'll be stronger. I'll keep marching.
Life, it's not hard. Life is very simple. Life is what you give it, life is what you take from it. You give life, you take from life. How much do you take? How much do you leave behind? One blessing at a time. The toughest part of life is the most underrated part of life, that you would ever hear about. Winning look good. Legacies are built. Legacies are built to last, but, what type of legacy, are you building? What protects your legacy?
I tell you my legacy. I wasn't welcomed. I was too small. I couldn't play the game the way they wanted me to play the game.”
“永远不会过时,底特律活塞的篮球永远不会过时。
首先我非常感谢上帝以及救世主能够给我这一次机会,感谢我的母亲一直在我的人生当中相信着我,感谢我的家庭一直在背后激励着我,感谢为我做了一切的朋友们,感谢我的篮球教练在我的职业生涯当中一直严厉的管束着我,同时能够给我一个上场证明自己的机会。
感谢我的家庭培育了我,让我能够在面对生活的困难时变得更加坚强,我还要感谢篮球,在篮球这件事情上,我一直十分坦诚,他并非仅仅只是我人生当中的过客而已。我通过拿起篮球创造了一种属于我的方式,我通过篮球的方式去回馈那些帮助过我的人。
我在篮球场上寻找到了一种非常容易的方式,在很多面对困难的时候,我选择起身走向前去。放弃从来都不在我的选项之中。我也一直在保持前进,像狮子、像猎狗一样保持战斗。
通往成功的道路没有其他的,只有不断的坚持向前走,如果你掉队了,我就会去引导你,如果你来引导我的话,我必然会跟随你;如果你指导我的话,我就会完成我的任务,生活不仅仅只有篮球,而我的生命当中也不仅仅只有篮球。
在我还是孩童时期,我没有能力去表达我自己的观点,但是我总是能够非常仔细地去观察,这是我从小就引以为傲的地方。虽然在一开始的时候生活没有给我机会,但是在这途中我一直不断的坚持,不断的胜利,不断的成功,我不断的把经验教导给其他人,不断的回馈我身边的人。
生命是异常珍贵的,但生命的意义绝对不在于索取,不在于征服,生命的意义更多地在于竞争。我们必须要在这其中快乐地享受它,这是我送给现场所有孩子们的话,希望你们能够在未来的人生道路上坚持,乐观,积极向上,面对生活挺直你的腰杆。
这是这是从小我的母亲就一直教导我的。
挺直腰板,挺起胸膛,抬起头颅。
我再说一次,挺直腰板,挺起胸膛,抬起头颅。
如果你做到了我说的这些事情,那么你一定不会被轻易地打败。最强大的人永远都是孤独的,站在巅峰的人也是孤独的。真正的优秀的领导者会学会着从底层去开始他的领导,而我一直带领着我的父亲母亲,我的兄弟姐妹,我把他们带领在我的身边,每当我的困难面前跌倒时,他们都会继续前进,把我留在原地,而我最终会依靠自己的力量去赶上他们。在赶上他们的途中,我会继续努力向前,我会变得更加强大。
生活没有我们想象的困难,生活其实非常简单,生活就是你给他什么,你必然就会得到什么,你奉献给生活多少,你就能够从生活当中获取多少。而在生活当中最艰难的那一段时间,就是最容易被人们低估的。可能大家听到过这句话,什么时候看起来才是最棒的。
传奇是通过一点一点的努力构建起来的,是在未来的时间里经久不衰的。你创造的是一个什么样子的传奇,又是谁在守护着你的传奇。
现在我来讲述属于我自己的传奇,我可能不受很多人喜欢,我的身高体型太过矮小,我甚至没有按照他们喜欢的方式去打篮球。篮球对于我来讲似乎就像是一场原本就不公平的比赛。但是只要你把我放在这样级别的舞台之上,我就会向所有人证明我的能力!永不止步。”
