Either you can do it or you can't. I think I can overcome anything I put my mind to.

You walk in our locker room and you see Pau Gasol, you see Andrew Bynum, you see Kobe, you see Ron Artest ... we have so many players that can play.

In New York, the dunk is not the thing. To break somebody down and shoot a J-that's as big as a dunk in New York.

I'm a role model. I have overcome the negativity, and I'm playing.

A little adversity can't hold me down.

I did some things I regret, and I know there are people who think they know me. I've heard the things they say, and some of them are hurtful.

I just try to focus on the basketball game and not get caught up in all the media.
