I play against a front and a back every night, Ming does not have to do that, Duncan does not have to do that, Garnett doesn't do that. I am the only one that has to do that.

It's a different role for me, playing with the great Dwyane Wade.

I urge all children to listen to their mothers and fathers. My mom was helping out some kids and she didn't want to call me for all of the money; she only wanted to take care of some of the kids.

I'm always ready for a change. I'm Irish. I'm a leprechaun.

I have a lot left. There's only four or five good centers in the league and I'm in that number. ... I've been in it for 17 years but I've missed three years because of injury. If you do the math, I've still got three years left. You got that?

I don't have to make a point. I'm George Bush. I'm the president. I built that arena, so I don't have to make a point.

Now I see why everybody who plays for him doesn't like him.
