My Father... He was there when I didn't understand, he was there when I was wrong, he was there when I cried, he was there when I lied. For some reason my dad was always there, when I needed him the most. His love was never ending. And now that he's gone there is an emptiness in my world, but not in my heart.

I don't go out and just try to score. I score because there is an opportunity to score.

I never feared about my skills because I put in the work. Work ethic eliminates fear. So if you put forth the work, what are you fearing? You know what you're capable of doing and what you're not.

I make shoes for white suburban kids, not the poor black kids. That would be like opening a restaurant for people without stomachs.

To be successful you have to be selfish, or else you never achieve. And once you get to your highest level, then you have to be unselfish. Stay reachable. Stay in touch. Don't isolate.

Earn your leadership every day.

Each time I step on the basketball court, I never know what will happen. I live for the moment. I play for the moment.
