Always stay true to yourself. Some people will like it, some people won't. Life goes on.

We all need that sometimes, to get re-sparked again. Sometimes it's different influences and different motivations; sometimes we've got to go and get back to the basics.

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.

I believe that you should put the right people around you, people that will not let anything go wrong.

At this point in my career I'm not concerned about the money, it's about winning. Nothing else even matters.

I just don't want to get used to feeling this feeling, you know, losing basketball games.

Man, I'm not trying to be important; I just go out and play.
