I coached Derrick Thomas for the first three years of his career. He was a special player.
If somebody was to ask me who is the best rookie, I would tell them I was.
Everybody would love to be able to be great and make it to the NBA All-Star Game as a rookie. I mean, that is everybody's goal.
I have every goal you could possibly dream of - Rookie of the Year, NBA champion, MVP.
It's an honor to be named Rookie of the Year by the media.
Being traded a couple times - and I've been traded after winning Rookie of the Year - is out of your control.
Chris Pittaro is the best rookie I've had in 15 years.
It would be special, just to know I had the best rookie season a running back has had in this league, especially a record that's been however old it is.
I can say Rookie of the Year is what I want to do.
I'd like to win Rookie of the Year.
I'm a big fan of Marcus Smart.
Personally, I want to win rookie of the year.
It would have been harder for me to get rookie of the year in Cleveland than it would've been in Minnesota.
I want to be on the All-Defensive team, be rookie of the year, make the All-Star team, all that type of stuff.
