“The day I stopped worrying about stats is the day I started winning”

But that is the only thing that slows me down is the system. No one, two or three was big enough to slow me down, only the system. It was the system that slowed me down to make my numbers fall. Not because I am older.

I don’t get tired. I get beat up. You keep chopping on a tree, you need to give the tree some rest so the chlorophyll will fill back up and the tree gets its energy back.

Probably a lack of concentration. I always hit them during practice. I just need to concentrate. Even though I should a lousy percentage,

I’m ready to go. As big men in the league, there are two who have done something special during this millennium. I’m one and Tim Duncan is the other.

The biggest thing that will define my legacy is how I’ve done it, and what I’ve done, and who I am. I’m a weird big guy. Doing rapping, doing movies.

I don’t know who made it, all I know is it was put in my head that two plus two is four. So certain things happen. Why does it rain? Why am I so sexy? I don’t know.

Talk to the guys that ain’t doing nothing, don’t talk to me. I just want eight guys out there with me who want to play.

Because I grew up with a drill sergeant in my life,

Now that I’m an old, old veteran-age 29-I do things a lot differently. I don’t go to the gentlemen’s clubs anymore. I had to slow that down.

There’s no answer for my offense, just like the polythagorean theorem.

My wrists are crooked and don’t go all the way back. I’ve been practicing and working on them. You can’t do everything good.

I don’t know how it is for you earthlings, but where I’m from, strength is mental.

Get away from my house. What do you want?

I’m still here. I’m a force to be reckoned with… you have to come take my spot, and not through Twitter and not through the media, come take my spot.

If you take a needle and stick her in the booty and take a needle and stick me in the booty, we’re both going to say ouch.

Przybilla can’t guard me when I’m 27, 37 or 47.

Nostalgia seems to haunt me these days I wonder if it’s old age or just a phase.

Eases our darkness into daylight. Oceans apart, but what remains the same, is our eyes gazing at the same moon.

What a loss they suffered, the day they left you.

There came that day in mid-July I never saw it coming I don’t know why house empty and you gone you imprinted my heart with that Leonard Cohen song.

You told me I was the culmination of all the prettiest sunsets and that was the day I finally saw what you see in me.

It might sound cliche but with the dying of another day, I’m close to walking away as my mind is leading me astray.

Maybe there is no tomorrow for us. Thats why I’m hoping today to be a very long day.

You will heal, one day. You will no longer fall apart at the idea of moving on with your life without them.
