What really excited me at the end was the challenge of being the best I can be and prolonging my best level and playing against the best players in the world. But now that I don't have the opportunity to play against the best players in the world when it counts, in front of fans, it doesn't excite me as much.

The NBA has the best point guards in the world, so it is important that I come ready to play every night.

I am thrilled to be an Olympian, and I think that although we will be underdogs we can beat many teams and will be a surprise in Sydney.

Basketball isn't as popular in Canada as it is in the US. Hockey is by far the most popular sport in Canada.

My father was a soccer player. All my friends played basketball though, so I stuck with basketball.

The only reason I don't do more is because, like all of us, we have busy lives.

My goal is to eliminate positions where I can't function.
