I think I play well getting up and down the court.

I don't forget nothing. It's a vault up here.

I don't like new environments. I don't like being around a lot of new people. It makes me uncomfortable.

I'm definitely not one to prolong things and drag it out, that's not really my personality.

I think my wingspan helps me out on defense, because I can cover a little more ground and block a few more shots.

When I think about it, it's kind of weird, but I do take shots without looking at the rim sometimes.

Some days, you wake up with extra energy, that extra juice.

I love video games. I had a Sega Genesis and a Nintendo 64 growing up, and I've had every 'NBA Live' that has ever come out.

The issue you have with two competitive guys being brought up the same way is that you don't have one person who goes out of his way to make a relationship.

I feel like, of course, Portland didn't want me to leave, but I feel like at the end of the day it's good to have a fresh start.

I feel like everything with me gets blown out of proportion. I think it's because I'm so quiet about things that people just run with anything they hear.

I'm probably one of the most misunderstood people in the league.

I like my little shell. I like my little circle of three or four people that I'm close to. I think that comes off as bad to people that don't really know my personality.

I'm a private person; I'm pretty to myself.

I do love being at home. But when it's forced, it's a little bit different.

I feel like I've made some good memories in San Antonio. I feel like I'm in a really good family in San Antonio. They understand me. I understand them.

My biggest thing I've learned is just putting time into getting ready. When we're young, you just go on the court and just hoop. But I think as you get older, it's more about, making sure everything is firing and making sure everything is ready to go and warmed up.

Man, I'm pretty spoiled in San Antonio. I don't do media every day.
