falling-in-love sex making-love
Everyone is having sex until they fall in love. When you fall in love, then it's making love.
fighting gun thinking
When something drastic happens in our life, one person goes and hides and doesn't want to be seen. That's what I did. [Others] want to stand up and fight and think they're tough. Like if someone gets shot, you're either scared of guns or you think you're Superman. In my situation, I wanted to hide. I didn't want to be seen anymore.
want being-the-best
I want to be the best in whatever I do.
team honor individual
Individual honors come with team success.
matter defense looks
When you're in that zone there's nothing really the defense can do ... It doesn't matter who's sticking you because everything looks good.
mistake people world
It sucks the way the world works. You can do a hundred things for people, but you do one bad mistake and everyone crucifies you and that's all they want to remember.
team losing recognition
It's hard to get recognition when your team is losing.
summer xbox past
I found out this summer how to hook up my Xbox 360 in the hotel and get past security. It took me a while to figure out, but I got it now.
sweet kings real
On the road, I eat hamburgers every day. The team tries to get me to eat differently, but no. Burgers, burgers, burgers. I like burgers. McDonald's burgers. Wendy's burgers. Burger King burgers. There's this one place in Canada--I even look at the schedule to find out when we play there--best burger I've ever tasted. Real soft and sweet. I ate twelve of them in one night.
hard-work thinking years
If you take away the last few years, from my last year in Washington, and you think about my career, there was nothing but hard work. I was in the gym three or four times a day, working on my skills. If we lost a game, and I thought I played bad, I'm staying in the gym to keep shooting. That's what I did. That's what I was known for: I was a gym rat.
sorry crazy fall
They gave high fives to all the players who say like the most obvious textbook answers in the world. It's like after each game, you already know what they're going to say. If they lost: "Ahh ... Tough loss." It's like, come on, how do you guys fall for that? And if they something that they really feel, everyone goes crazy. Like "Oohh! He's spazzing out!" Now he gotta say sorry for saying something he really felt. It's like, Oh lord.
team hate i-hate
I hate it when you see talented teams with a lot of scorers and they can't get along with each other.
mom prayer littles
When I was little, I asked God if I could meet my mom just one more time, and my prayer was answered in 2001. It was weird.
player decision leaving
As a player leaving early, you always look back and wonder what could have been. But you have to be happy with your decisions, because you ultimately have to live with them.
