I was so used to going out and winning state championships and playing in the postseason.

I'm just blessed that I was able to have guys around me that had some of the same goals. The man above gave me a gift and he gave me friends and a mentor that can help me reach my goal and reach my potential. And we all had the same goal, so it wasn't hard for us to get, you know, off track because we all wanted the same thing.

Man, meeting Michael Jordan for me was like.. black Jesus walking towards me. It was overwhelming to me to finally meet the guy I've looked up to my whole life.

I'm going to use all my tools, my God-given ability, and make the best life I can with it.

My childhood was never great. We moved from place to place a lot. There were times when we had no definite place to stay. So, a basic level of security was not always there. Therefore, when you finally make it out, and you become who I am, you're humbled by the memories of those situations.

I'm not afraid of nothing, I just like the challenge, and I love being here.

D-Wade is the unselfish guy here-he is welcoming Chris Bosh and LeBron James to his team.
