There's a lot of falses - out there and if I take up for myself, it's a bad thing. Sometimes you just got to live with it, but for the most part, I'm like look, I don't want no problems with nobody.

I'm not trying to have my whole life out there in the media.

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.

The clothes are not making me If I like it, that's all that mattersIt's not about the clothes. It's about how I am as a person and how confident I am.

I like to sit on things and digest them and then I'll figure out my next move, but I never said I was right for doing anything.

I want to show people who I really am, especially aspiring basketball players who want to be at this level. That's what I'm about.

A big market is something that doesn't really concern me too much. It's cool to think about, it's good for off-the-court deals. But I'm more of a basketball player. That's what I want to be known as. And this is the best place for me to play basketball. I'm glad I'm here.
