I thought basketball was a game for women. My mother played basketball, and so did my sister.

Of course parents want their children to confide in them.

The best player I've ever played against is Kobe Bryant. I have seen him do some stuff that is just unbelievable.

As a newcomer, I was often expected to carry the bags of the older players, or get them burgers. That can make you feel pretty miserable.

If theres an injury, for a couple games, you can have guys step in. But for a long period of time, it always catches up with you.

I take my sport damned seriously. Basketball is my life. There are other people who go into important games as if they were any other game. I'm a brooder and I spend a lot of time thinking about my opponent, about the things he can do and about what I have to do to win. I don't think I'll ever be able to change that.
