I enjoy money. You got to know how to enjoy it, though. A lot of people enjoy it the wrong way: They spend it all.

I came up in a small town ghetto and I never did think I'd be a celebrity or famous athlete, I was just loving to play the game of basketball. And I worked hard at everything I did.

I don't talk to reporters, because they're gonna write what they want to write, so let 'em write what they want to write.

When the ladies see an athlette walking around, they think, Well, he got the cocaine, so let's go get high with him.

I never thought I'd lead the NBA in rebounding, but I got a lot of help from my team-mates - they did a lot of missing.

I'll always be Number 1 to myself.

You got to work hard whatever you're doing and try to be number one and take pride in what you're doing. You want to be at the best at your spot then you got to work hard, man. A lot of guys don't work as hard as it gonna take.
