The confidence level that Steph is playing with now, obviously, you won't totally stop him. If I'm playing against him right now, I think I'd try to pick him up full court, get the ball out of his hands, try to be a little physical.
Not that I shouldn't have been traded - everyone gets traded at some point. But the way that it went down wasn't justifiable.
I've accomplished everything I tried to accomplish in basketball.
I'm obviously not a politician, nor do I have the desire to be one, but I'm a conscious citizen.
I have great respect for Dan Gilbert and the Cleveland Cavaliers, and I greatly appreciate the discussions we had regarding their organization.
I'm a lot more serious on the court. I'm probably a lot more intense than some of these guys thought I would be. Off the court, I'm a totally different dude. But my passion's to win, and I'm a perfectionist out there.
As I have conveyed before, ultimately I would like to lead a team's basketball operation and be a part of a successful franchise.
I played football first. I love football. I'm a die-hard Broncos fan. I loved football, but in the offseason, I started playing basketball, and I just fell in love with the game. I've been playing basketball ever since 5th grade.
I'm not the fastest player, but you can't really play up on me because my handles are good enough where I can get around you. But you can't play off of me, because I can shoot. And if smaller guys try to defend me, I'll back them down. I'm a good post player.
Quite frankly, Minnesota was where my career kind of turned around, and it all had to do with Flip Saunders and his coaching prowess and his system.
I can do a lot more by shooting from outside, score inside, penetrate, and make opportunities for others.
A lot of time, you play well and you do good work, but you are not on a good team, so it really doesn't mean anything.
I don't want to be fired after two seasons and risk never getting another opportunity to coach.
I liked being home playing in front of my people, but I just did not like the situation because I was playing shooting guard, and that is not my position. I would play it if someone like Rip got hurt, but to do it for an entire season, that is not my position. I got it done when I was asked to do. But inside, I know that is not me.
Anytime you can grace the cover of any videogame, that means that you're on that level. That you're one of the best.
My wife cooks, I clean. Then I go to practice, come home, and take a two hour nap. I wake up, shave my head, then it's time to ball.
People only see you on TV and riding around like stars, but they don't see behind the scenes how much time you have to put in working out. The lifting, the eating habits, trying to change all that so you can be that guy on TV, to be a baller, that's what people don't understand.
I am a big music guy. Hip-hop, R&B, old school, jazz.
I drive a Range Rover almost every day, but my favorite is my '69 SS Camaro.
I got 'Smooth' when I was growing up. I got 'Bigshot' playing in Detroit. People who know me from Denver call me 'Smooth.'
