People have always doubted whether I was good enough to play this game at this level. I thought I was, and I thought I could be. What other people thought was really always irrelevant to me.

I love basketball and I'm committed to it, but if I have to lock up my spirit because of basketball, it ain't worth it.

We've got very few bodies right now so we were tired, but we've also got a lot of character and we want to win.

I don't care what other people say. I fight every day to be the best player I can.

I hope my kids learn to put themselves first.

I use a lot of balance training and functional training. Basically it's where you add an element of instability to a regular exercise. So whether it's on the physioball or the Bosu ball or just balancing on one leg, I try to incorporate an instable plane and/or movement to the exercise, so the body's doing two or more movements.

It feels great to have my hard work pay off, especially when the fans made it hard for me.
