For me, it always goes back to something I learned in basketball. There's winning and there's losing, and in life you have to know they both will happen. But what's never been acceptable to me is quitting.

I guess when people ask what is the biggest transition to the NBA from college, it is definitely defense and the mental part.

I was around when my father finished the last payment of his house. I remember like it was yesterday. He had worked all those years to own that house and he cried. He was so excited and so happy and I want to see other people get that feeling, too.

I love to be in the ballpark. I love to just go in and enjoy a great baseball game, a great pitchers' duel.

HIV changed my life, but it doesn't keep me from living.

My diet is mostly chicken and fish. I make sure I get a lot of vegetables, a lot of fruit. I am a big fruit man, I am a vegetable man anyway. And I also get a lot of rest. That's the key I may be up early, but I'm in bed early too.

People don't stop eating, and they don't stop drinking coffee.
