Not everybody's going to have a perfect relationship with every great player on their team. But when I step between those lines and I'm with my team, we're a brotherhood.
I looked up to Magic Johnson a lot. He was a tall point guard who found his teammates and had a good time.
I'm just going to be myself. And when you're bein' yourself, you don't have to back up lies or the stories you told. You don't got to sugarcoat nothin'.
You're not getting any recognition as a point guard if you ain't winning.
When people talk trash about me and doubt me, I just use it as motivation.
I think basketball harnessed and built my toughness and competitiveness. I grew up in a tough neighborhood, and you were either going to cry and moan about it or get tough.
Some compare me to Derrick Rose, and that's a compliment.
Most people don't know I have a weird pregame meal. I'm picky, so all I eat are grapes and a hamburger with nothing on it. I get the meat, the bun - that's it.
Once I argue with somebody, I'm cool; I let it pass. I'm back to playing basketball.
I went to Kentucky to be a better player.
I don't put the pressure on everybody else. I put the pressure on myself because I am that franchise guy. I am the guy that has to be the leader of the team, that has to get everybody better, make everybody better on my team.
My jump shot is the key thing. Guys go on the pick and roll and will force me to knock down shots.
I had a real bad attitude after my dad passed of liver cancer. I was 9, and we were really close.
In eighth grade, I was actually better in football. I played running back, wide receiver, and safety - just like Allen Iverson.
I've been a Cowboys fan since I was born.
I speak my mind, so I don't hold my tongue for nobody.
I'm the type of guy that hates to get out of practice.
I'm from Raleigh, North Carolina, and the Cowboys have always been my team.
I think my best feature are my abs. They're cut up.
You always gotta do the right thing: you never know who's watching.
