No matter how good you are, there's a lot of luck involved.

I've always liked to shoot from the hip. This is the perfect fit for me ... I'm willing to earn my spurs, because once again, after 18 years I'm back to being a rookie.

I've always considered myself a crunch-time player. I just love having the ball in my hands. Everyone in the arena knows the ball is supposed to be in your hands and you still make it. It's the odds. I love the odds.

No matter how good you are, there's a lot of luck involved.

I want to say thank you to the great state of Indiana and all the fans.... Pacers Nation, Blue and Gold, thank you guys so much.

Michael Jordan on his worst day is ten times better than Kobe Bryant on his best day.

I don't have the physical talent those guys have. My hard work has made me very good.
