I assure you, you will never survive on your wits alone.

When you have that respect from your teammates, it makes it a lot more comfortable.

I always say, decisions I make, I live with them. There's always ways you can correct them or ways you can do them better. At the end of the day, I live with them.

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.

As a parent you protect your kids as much as possible.

My father wasn't around when I was a kid, and I used to always say, 'Why me? Why don't I have a father? Why isn't he around? Why did he leave my mother?' But as I got older I looked deeper and thought, 'I don't know what my father was going through, but if he was around all the time, would I be who I am today?'

If I didn't believe in this team and this organization and the direction that we're headed, I wouldn't have signed the extension.
