Me as a person, I'm not the president of the NBPA (National Basketball Players Association). I don't even know what to say. I'm not like this perfect, buttoned-up, suit-and-tie guy.

I ain't got no beef with nobody.

If it's controversy out there, or if it's some false stories out there, I want to clear it up. That's just what I'm all about.

I'm going to be real as hell and show you who I am, because I want the kids to see who I really am and the basketball players to see who I really am, and that's all that matters to me.

I'm not trying to be like what I thought an NBA player is supposed to be growing up.

We live in a world of what have you done for me lately. We don't remember the day before sometimes. Think back five, six, years ago what he was doing. It's unheard of.

I just want to grow spiritually with the Lord.
