“I’m blessed to have such a tight-knit family that we can talk about anything. Whether we talk frequently or not, since we’re on separate ends of the country, there are a lot of moving parts, and we always stay tight and find that center ground that keeps us together.”

I wasn’t going to shy away from getting married when I did and having a baby young and starting a family, even with the job that I chose.

If you can’t move and talk to people that you see, it’s not really my scene.

There are so many things we have to overcome in this life with Jesus, His work on the cross. He’s paid the ultimate price for us, so I’m proud to be a child of God.

I’m not in the business of ranking or debating who is what.

I’ve always believed that success for anyone is all about drive, dedication, and desire, but for me, it’s also been about confidence and faith.

There’s a reason that I have confidence out there, and it’s about how I prepare for games and for series and seasons and whatnot, so we’ve got to stick with that kind of thought process.

I think about the milestones from my childhood and what it will be like to watch our kids go through them. Taking Riley to her first day of school was a whirlwind. I can’t imagine what middle school is going to be like, and high school, and graduation.

The way I try to represent my family and coaches, I think all are characteristics the league aspires to portray. That’s just who I am.

Some of the stuff I do on the court is what most people think they can do.

Water is my drink.

You know, I’m trying to chase rings, and that’s all I’m about. So that’s where the conversation stops for me.

I have allergies, and I’ve had my share of nosebleeds, but that’s usually related to pollen.

Most home teams have chapels, so when I’m on the road I’ll probably go to their services.

Drinking water is essential to a healthy lifestyle.

I have certain guys who I looked up to. Jordan, Kobe, those guys. Passing that on to doing my part to kind of keep that influence of basketball where it should be is kind of why I play the game.

I can’t jump the highest. I’m obviously not the biggest, not the strongest.

All good things must come to an end.

In the end there is no desire so deep as the simple desire for companionship.

Dear incomprehension, it’s thanks to you I’ll be myself, in the end.

I always write the end of everything first. I always write the last chapters of my books before I write the beginning. Then I go back to the beginning. I mean, it’s always nice to know where you’re going is my theory.

Argentine political life is like the life of an ant community or an African forest tribe: full of events, full of crisis and deaths, but life is always cyclical, and the year ends as it begins.

What a thing friendship is – World without end.

The handsome gifts that fate and nature lend us Most often are the very ones that end us.

Give me unexpected whether it is good or bad, I learn from it all. As you build or break me in the end, I will stand tall.
