Raymond Felton on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander tying Wilt Chamberlain’s record of 126 straight games with 20+ points:
“I just want people to give this man his flowers, cuz all I hear and see on comments and stuff, this man flops, this man does this, this man does that. This man gets buckets, that wasn’t no flopping last night. Every big shot he hit it ain’t coming from the free throw line, it’s coming from the 3pt line or the mid-range. The man gets buckets.”

I always wan to be respected. It a nonnegotiable to me. I try to reciprocate the same through the way I treat others & work. That’s what my new contract with ESPN was about. I didn’t need to feel loved & the contract details would dictate my worth there. I wanted to agree to something that gave me a heart of gratitude walking into the building each day.
So I worked for that. I stood on that & here we are. I feel so blessed for my progression. I got a lot of what I wanted, but certainly not all. It was a reminder. You ain’t “him” yet. So the goal remains the same. Do Right And Kill Everything. The energy is different but the grind is now! See y’all. EVERYWHERE!

Mr. T. on how he chose his name: I think about my father being called "boy", my uncle being called "boy", my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called "boy".
So I questioned myself:
"What does a black man have to do before he's given respect as a man?"
So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man.
I self-ordained myself Mr. T, so the first word out of everybody's mouth is "Mr.""
