“Winning takes precedence over all. There’s no gray area. No almosts.”

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.

This is an award I couldn’t have won on my own. I can’t thank these guys enough. These are my guys, these are my brothers.

Friends come and go but banners hang forever.

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

I’ll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it’s sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.

You have to rely on others to have success as a group.

I focus on one thing and one thing only – that’s trying to win as many championships as I can.

The topic of leadership is a touchy one. A lot of leaders fail because they don’t have the bravery to touch that nerve or strike that chord. Throughout my years, I haven’t had that fear.

If I panic, everyone else panics.

I like playing for the purple and gold. This is where I want to finish up.

It doesn’t matter to me what place I get traded to. If I was traded someplace – I’d play anywhere.
