“Playoff basketball isn't about who scores, stats or putting numbers up...” — Lou Williams Quote

Playoff basketball isn't about who scores, stats or putting numbers up on the board. It's just about winning at the end of the day. When you play a game in a series, it becomes chess. It becomes who can outsmart the other team.

I think in Toronto my job was to score just based on the system that we had. We played a lot of iso basketball - a lot of one-on-one basketball.

In the summertime you'll find me back home in Atlanta, in the gym playing against whoever walks in that day.

When you play in Toronto you feel like you're playing overseas. We can't wait to go on the road sometimes just to be in America.

I organize a chess festival in Hungary. I support chess in schools, and I have my own chess foundation. And I started writing books.

When I was born, I lived with my dad for two years. I was always watching him on a tennis court as a kid, he was a fanatic. Boris Becker would come to the house and play chess.

With chess it was almost this palpable electricity that I felt. You're totally in control of your own fate. There's no luck factor. It's you and the pieces.

I do hope in Ireland children in schools can experience the richness of chess and it's positive effects.

My mother and father met while playing chess, so I've always had a fondness for the game. If it weren't for chess, I might not be here.
