“I probably play games more than I practice.”

I realized I could not fulfill my responsibilities to the team from both a time and energy standpoint. I need to take a step back and take some time away, both mentally and physically in order to prepare for the upcoming NBA season.

In this league, experience means a lot.

My style has changed and evolved mainly because I’ve grown to have more confidence in myself.

I’m not a guy that’s going to brag or feel like I’m better than the group.

The clothes are not making me If I like it, that’s all that mattersIt’s not about the clothes. It’s about how I am as a person and how confident I am.

I don’t know what I’m going to do tomorrow. I just know for sure I’m going to keep playing basketball.

I just want to grow spiritually with the Lord. I’m keeping strong at it, just trying to make my walk with faith a little better.

I didn’t fall in love with it just because it was me playing. I fell in love with it because I’ve got guys like this – like these guys every single day that push me to be the best that I can be.

I’m not trying to have my whole life out there in the media.

I’m a basketball player. That’s what I do and what I love but that’s just not all who I am. I’m talented in a lot of different areas.

I love Oklahoma. The fans have been with me every night. What more can you ask for?

Every time I see you under the basket for a game, I feel confident. No matter how the game is going, I look at you – I say, if our owner’s behind us, we can do it all. I thank you so much for giving me this opportunity.

I’m just trying to grow. That’s one thing I told myself is, ‘Don’t worry about who people say is the best player’.

Every memory I had growing up was involving a basketball. I didn’t go to the prom and stuff like that. It was always basketball for me.

I would describe my style as off the wall. I like stuff that doesn’t match. I just like to stand out.

Set the goal and work all days for it, until you achieve, I want to be a champion, the best!

Peace is never more than one thought away.

If at first you do succeed don’t take any more chances.

They dispute not in order to find or even to seek Truth, but for victory, and to appear the more learned and strenuous upholders of a contrary opinion. Such persons should be avoided by all who have not a good breastplate of patience.

Romania are more Portuguese than German.

It was more than that. It was the period in which we suffered more total losses than in all the rest of our life put together.

Sometimes there’s only one; more often, there are multitudes.

I’ve never not been sure that I was a photographer any more than you would not be sure you were yourself. I was a photographer, or wanting to be a photographer, or beginning – but some phase of photographer I’ve always been.

The more time i spent with him, the more i knew the feelings weren’t going away.
