“I’ve played for the Miami Heat my whole career under Pat Riley. Mr. GQ himself. So when I pick out my outfits before a game, I’m already feeling confident. And some of that swagger stays with me when I take the court.”

The biggest thing is to make sure that when something comes out about you that is false that you prove it’s not true.

Yeah, I play a lot of point guard. LeBron plays a lot of point guard. A lot of people are thinking too much on positions.

The Miami Heat floor is great, but a lot of them are not.

When you’re healthy, you can do so many great things.

I’ve decided to listen to my doctors and get the procedure I need on my knee. USA Basketball said I had to do what was best for me. They want me to be obviously as healthy as possible so I can continue to play this game at a high level.

Yeah, at first people were talking about me. But now everyone is wearing their clothes more fitted.

I’m happy that I can focus on my body a little bit. I’m not happy to get surgery, but I’m happy that I can focus on getting better.

I am very happy to be here in the NBA.

Any time the ball goes through the basket, and it’s going through consistently, it’s demoralizing for any opponent.

My upbringing involves individuals who helped me along the way. I don’t think I would be here today without that support.

I’m an athlete, so I can dress down with the best of them. I can throw on t-shirts and sweats with the best of them.

Most days I am in public. If I go to the store, with social media, I’m in public. It might as well be a press conference.

I think people have had the understanding for many years that whatever happens with the separation of parents, that the kids automatically go to the mother. The fathers don’t know their rights.

I’m scared of needles.

Guys who might not be superstars but because of their hustle, because of the little things they do, these are the guys who can really mean the difference between winning and losing.

I’m a playmaker, and I’m going to score. At the end of the day, my job is to put the ball in the basket.

How many more tragedies does it take before we do something?

We need innovation in education and dedication to the task before us.

My mother didn’t try to stab my father until I was six, but she must have shown signs of oddness before that.

I always woke up before the plane landed.

Dawn was written well before 9/11. People speak a lot today about the banality of evil, but not all evil is banal.

How many more children have to die before this country realizes that No Gun Zones create perfect locations for violence?

In the course of 25 years, we have developed a constructive relationship with Mexico that was nonexistent before.

Enjoying consciousness every now and then for a second or so before splitting up to become bits and pieces of trees and stars and french fries.
