“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 learned how to pass when I was real young. That’s one thing I always knew how to do was find the open man.

In the game of basketball, I play first off because I love it. I love to have fun. I love to run up and down the court.

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 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.

I’ve just got to let my teammates know in practice, without even telling them, that I don’t think I’m ahead of anybody.

Mirroring, softly, barely audibly, just under the membrane of consciousness.

They just elected me Mis Phonograph Record of 1966. They discovered my measurements were 33 1/2, 45, 78!

I just live my life, see things theway I do, and I’m just looking for a notion to hang it all on.

When I’m playing the 1-guard, teams do a great job of just loading up and preparing for my drives and preparing for my three-point shots.

I just happen to believe that people are not stupid. And the way I will come at it is to educate people, help people to actually understand that it is that progressive movement that is causing them the problems.

Directors tell me what to do, and I kind of just put my own twist to it.

Just celebrate the life you had, not the life you could’ve had.
