Rolexes never lose value, so I started getting a couple of them. I like them. Not only do they look good but they work very well.
A lot of times when I'm in the gym, I might not have that energy but I realize what I'm doing it for and it gives me the strength to do one more extra rep, to do one more set or to push even harder, and to not let whatever obstacle is in front of me stop me from reaching my goal.
I do a lot of exercises where I'm so tired that I'm not supposed to do the last rep. What that does is it teaches me that no matter how far I am, how hard I've fallen, I'm never out of the fight. I just take that with me every time I'm in the weight room.
Sugar can cause fatigue and it can also build up on your joints. It can lead to those injuries where you've got nagging pain on those joints.
My job is to be the best teammate I can be, push these guys to the limit every day, make sure that I'm being the right type of leader.
I want to be held accountable. I want my teammates and my coaches to push me to be the best that I can be.
Sometimes things don't work like they should.
I changed up everything around me. I hold myself more accountable in certain situations. I try to be a better man, a better father, a better teammate.
You really can't please people. I know everybody's attention is on what I'm doing on the floor.
When I'm smiling, I'm supposedly not taking the game seriously. When I'm not smiling, then it's like, "He don't care. He's just out there."
I just want to show Atalanta who I really am and show my teammates what kind of teammate I am.
I know who I am and what kind of teammate I've always been.
The only way to shut people up is just by winning and just playing basketball.
I'm a fun person to be around, laid back, love to have fun.
