When people see you on the screen, you become bigger than life.

Players are ready to play, We're not on strike. It's a lockout.

Yes, it's true - I love the roar of the crowd. When the fans are with you, their voices come together in a big booming rush of sound that you can actually feel in your body - almost like a wave that lifts you and carries you past your own limits.

I'm the kind of parent who asks my kids questions like, 'What would be your ideal thing to do in the summer?'

I always remind my kids that hard work pays off. That's how I got to where I am right now because of sacrifice and the work I put into it.

I took it upon myself to be more aggressive. I wanted the ball. Coach gave me the ball and I just tried to attack (and) make plays, just take it to the rim and see what happens.

Every morning when I wake and every night when I go to sleep, I'm thinking about what I can do to become a better father and a better person.
