People tell me that I'm always smilin' on the court. I don't think about it. I just get emotional out there.

You've got to play with pride and guts.

Sometimes I still don't know if I'm prepared to go through the entire season, dealing with the different personalities, the crowds, the politics.

I've always felt that I'm a natural leader.

People have always told me, 'Yo, you're too unselfish. Shoot more.'

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.

My grandmother was always upbeat, a naturally happy person. I think I got that from her.
