“If you don’t believe in yourself nobody else will.”

The guy said NBA players are one in a million, I said, ‘Man, look, I’m going to be that one in a million.

I’m reflective only in the sense that I learn to move forward. I reflect with a purpose.

If you want to make history, you have to do historic things.

When you start training camp, you’re building the tools necessary to win a championship. You have to have the patience.

I was probably born a scorer, but I was made a winner. Whatever works, whatever wins championships, wins games, that’s what I do.

I don’t talk trash often, but when I do, I go for the jugular.

You want a CEO that understands they need to build a team around them that’s sharper and smarter than they are.

What people see on court is another side of me; it’s not me.

There is power in understanding the journey of others to help create your own.

There’s been a lot of talk of me being a one-man show but that’s simply not the case. We win games when I score 40 points and we’ve won when I score 10.

What does perfection look like to me? Championship rings.

I feel like I just returned a 100-yard kickoff in the last two minutes of the Super Bowl to win it all, only to have my run called back by a flag on the play.

You just try to take it one day at a time, You step on the basketball floor and just play. It’s fun. I’m comfortable with it.

I’m playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition-that’s what I’ve always wanted.

Basketball is my refuge, my sanctuary. I go back to being a kid on the playground. When I get here, it’s all good.

I wouldn’t say I’m a ball hog. I’m a shooter. I don’t necessarily hog the ball, but I put them up though. I definitely much rather shoot it than pass it. That’s just how I am.
