Experience is everything. It means so much because it enabled me to learn the game even faster. Playing in the playoffs is the best basketball in the world, and if you can learn under that pressure, succeed under that pressure, it gives you more confidence the next year.

If we go to the conference finals and people say we had a bad season, I'll take that.

When I first came in the league, a lot of people were surprised by my knowledge about the history of the game.

In France, if you talk to little boys, they know all of the NBA players and not one single Pro A player.

When you win 20 games in a row and then lose four, people ask you, 'What happened?'...That's the beauty of sports.

I still have a lot of room for improvement. I need to become a more skilled player.

If Tim Duncan had 'Knicks' on his jersey, he'd be a god. He'd be more than Patrick Ewing. With four championships and two MVPs, I think people realize he's one of the best ever, but if he played in New York, he'd be way more famous.
