I'm a very emotional player. I use emotion because my team feeds off it.

To represent the United States in international competition is special recognition that not many players receive and I am really looking forward to helping USA Basketball regain its status in international basketball.

I always find a couple of hecklers... I'll kinda look at them, stare at 'em, and let them know I can't be stopped.

I think if I had one year of college, I'd have done better with the mental part [of the NBA].

Austin had a concussion tonight. That's the way it goes for us. We get one back, we lose one. Or lose two. We've had the most difficult time the last two years just keeping a full roster. Hopefully at some point at the end of the tunnel some good things can happen for the Indiana Pacers.

If my team isn't motivated, it's my fault. I can't consider myself the best of the best until my team is able to get out of the first round.

If I can go to the U.S. Army and fight the war at 18 why can't you play basketball for 48 minutes?
