With the way I dress, I think my personality shows, so I don't always have to talk. Someone can see what I'm wearing, see what socks I'm wearing, and see what my vibe is, what kind of person I am
When I come home, I'm not a basketball player, but "dad". While everyone sees me as an NBA player, to my boys, I'm just "dad" and that's very important.
There is only a relationship between music and sports because all athletes want to be rappers and all rappers want to be athletes.
We didn't come out in the fourth like our usual selves. Most of the time in the fourth, we'll make the right plays. We made some of the wrong plays in the fourth tonight.
This win is important for our confidence. Any game where we're down, we can always look back to this game and know that we did it against a good team and can pull it out.
Watching him play and watching him talk about the seasons that they had is motivating. I grew up watching it, so to hear the inside scoop of the championships they won and watching him play is a motivation.

We're still looking. We hope it will come. If it doesn't come soon, we'll have an early vacation.
We're going to miss Eddie a lot, the defense he brought and the way he chased guys around the court. I want to see who's going to do that.
There is a side of me what wants to go, and there is a side of me that of course wants to win the gold. But there is a side of me that wants to make sure that things are different this time around.
There are a lot of good teams coming into our house, but it is our home and we need to defend our home.
We know we can win. That's what we're all here for. . . . This is my third year here and it's like it's my third different team, but we can win.
