The first time I played against Seattle was the only time I felt destroyed. Vin Baker just manhandled me. The whole thing, their double teams, their movement, everything.

I was a big Magic Johnson fan. And I guess people who knew that gave a name that... In that vein. I tried to play like him.

When our assists lead to baskets, that's us playing our best, and we begin knocking down shots.

Standing on the court and holding up that trophy - it's so great you want to keep doing it over and over again.

I have always liked knives. Then somebody gave me one. Then somebody gave me another one. Then I liked having them and started buying them. I started finding ones I liked, ones with funky blades.

It always feels good to win, it's always tough to lose.

At this point, if I were to psychoanalyze myself, I'd have to say I am a clown, cleverly disguised as a regular person.
