I smile all the time, even when I'm in a bad mood. I always try to keep a smile on my face.

I think I am a smarter player now.

The NBAs a Fortune 500 company. Thats how you look at it. And all the other Fortune 500 companies out there in the world, you dont see their CEOs and COOs going to work with white tees and baggy clothes and stuff like that. So I have to take that same approach.

I got a picture [tattoo] of Mohammed Ali on my side with one of his quotes. That's my guy. I look up to him. I'm like his number one fan.

Everything on my body has a meaning. I don't do art just because. It does look cool but it also has a meaning.

A lot of people think that as a player, during the lockout, you just have your whole day free. It's not like that - especially for me. I wake up everyday, train in the morning from 9 a.m. to about 2 p.m. Then I have a business meeting here, have to meet this person there, it's non-stop for me.

The new guys bring energy, intensity and emotion. The last couple games, they showed what they can bring to the team.
