My closest friends in the league are Dirk Nowitzki and Rex Chapman. Although I think Michael Finley and I will be friends forever.

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

The fans in Dallas were hard on me my first year, but after having a great year last year they are now supporting me. It feels great to have my hard work pay off, especially when the fans made it hard for me.

The pick and roll is more about bodies and eyes then speed and being fast

You know, once you have been through a certain amount of things in life, you definitely grow more comfortable with yourself.

When I think of my career, I can't help but think of the kid with his ball, falling in love.

I am not too accusatorial or defensive by nature. I have always been kind of philosophical about it, remembering that it is just a game. People take these things too seriously.
