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

I'm one year older, one year sexier - one more, baby. For me, it's all about the bigger picture. We want to win the whole thing. We've got to beat whoever is in our way.

If he wants to get that next contract, he's going to have to go to the New York Athletic Club three times a day and just ride the bike.

It's my job to make him look good. He's a very good looking man, so it's my job to keep him looking good.

Everything happens for a reason. I'm used to it, I prepare for it. Like I say, at the end of the day, those in charge of their own destiny are going to do what's right for them and their family.

I'm a season kind of guy - not the preseason but the regular season.

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?
