I never envisioned myself playing for the U.S. Olympic team -- growing up, I never envisioned playing in the NBA, to be real with you. I never envisioned that type of stuff. So this is like a dream that I never had come true. It's like I'm a part of what's really going on. It's still very hard for me to believe that I am really going to be a part of the biggest thing in the whole entire world.

Play hard, learn as much as I can and do what I do best. The rest will take care of itself I think.

Success is the result of psychologically preparing for it, prior to achieving it!

I can't worry about what other people are saying about me. At the end of the day, it's just their opinions, but if I said I don't hear it, or it doesn't bother me a little bit, I'd be lying to you.

I say 'come with it.' I'm not expecting anything easy. You have to earn your place. That's fine with me.

A lot of people I meet say, 'You remind me so much of Magic Johnson.'

When I was young, I was sold on winning. I was always serious on the court. As I got older, I realized that it was just a basketball game. Just go out there and have fun.
