"I thought about leaving early, but not for very long, because I was enjoying college too much," he said. "It was just too important to me. I knew the NBA would be there and I thought it would be more fun, and neater, for me to repeat as a champion than go to the NBA early. A lot of people win a championship, but not many win two in a row."
"I hear people say all the time, 'Go to the pros and get some money because you might get hurt and never get that money,' " he said. "But if you're big and strong and lifting weights and staying in shape, you'll be fine. The chances of getting hurt and never playing pro ball are slim to none. You can get [an insurance] policy anyway.
"There's no reason to come out early unless you totally hate school, if you're getting D's all the time and you hate going to class."
