When you are not practicing, someone else is getting better.

I made a lot of mistakes, a lot of things I'm not proud of. But it's only for other people to learn from.

My whole thing was, just being me. Now, you look around the NBA and all of them have tattoos, guys wearing cornrows. Now you see the police officers with the cornrows. I took a beating for those types of things.

I gave everything I had to basketball. The passion is still there but the desire to play is not. It was a great ride.

Believe me, I am not even that brave enough to miss that many practices.

I take everything I learned from the streets and put it in my NBA game.

Life is short. Im gonna be happy with mine.
