I just love being out there with these guys and I knew we'd have a chance to win this game late,

A man would have to practice 36 hours a day to play music like Peck!.

This has been building. We felt we had a good chance but we also knew it was anyone's game coming in. The Bonny Eagle fans were behind us, which gave us motivation to come together as a team. The momentum just kept building.

It's going to be good to look out and see someone that you know, and get a chance to see Chauncey and Rip in that first game for the first time. That will be exciting for them. It's going to be good for the whole team. It's going to be good for the city of Detroit to look up at that All-Star Game and see all four Pistons out there.

That was the perfect situation to be in. I didn't start the game, but I got a chance to be up in a situation where I can put our club ahead with one swing.

For reasons which I can't logically explain, in all of the films I've done, I've ended up doing love stories of one kind or another, and it seems to me that love stories are extremely dependent on the obstacles you can place between the lovers. There is no love story without it.
