They continue to criticize me for my outside shooting, but I continue to make outside shots.

We have an opportunity to get better.

I just want you guys to see it also. To see what type of words that are said toward me, and towards us as professional athletes. Everybody thinks it is a bed of roses and it's not.

I've always been a leader. I've always kind of been the tallest person on the team when I was younger but always kind of the smartest. I was ahead of my time. I wasn't always the oldest, I kind of was the youngest on the team, but, I kind of knew what to do at times.

I love showcasing my talents - not only to my hometown fans and my own team but to the world.

A lot of people were saying that I was a selfish person and a selfish player. You know, it got to me.

I wouldn't feel good about it at all. At the end of the day I'm here to win a team prize, and that's to win a championship, not an individual prize.
