I hate it when you see talented teams with a lot of scorers and they can't get along with each other.

This sport is just crazy. Your worst enemy in college is your teammate and friend when you get to the NBA. Who would have thought it?

When something drastic happens in our life, one person goes and hides and doesn't want to be seen. That's what I did. [Others] want to stand up and fight and think they're tough. Like if someone gets shot, you're either scared of guns or you think you're Superman. In my situation, I wanted to hide. I didn't want to be seen anymore.

When I leave the NBA, I don't want my legacy to be, 'He won a championship ring.' I want my legacy to say: 'He played for the people. He gave everybody in the world hope that they can be just like him.'

Everyone is having sex until they fall in love. When you fall in love, then it's making love.

You don't want to be too uptight about anything. Especially your job.

When I was little, I asked God if I could meet my mom just one more time, and my prayer was answered in 2001. It was weird.
