I am a burger guy, but actually I'm more of a Mexican food guy.

I know why girls go and have their nails done so often and have spa days. It feels awesome.

Everybody's goal in the NBA is to win a Championship - that's the ultimate.

Everybody's schedule is crazy in the NBA, so that can't be an excuse.

I think that's a good thing to have a camaraderie aspect with the team.

That's the thing about the NBA; there's another game.

I didn't really lift consistently before I got to the NBA. In college, I would skip out on it or not do as many reps because, honestly, I didn't like it. I was like 'Man, I'm not going to put on weight, I'm always going to be skinny, I'm not going to be big as the sky.'

I mean, I've definitely found my thing, what I'm good at. Certain things that guys do keep them in the NBA a long time, but I've found what I'm good at, and I'm only going to continue to get better at that.

I was about 6-foot-3 my freshman year of high school, and after the summer, I was about 6-foot-8. It all happened so fast. I went into the summer being tall, and when I came back, I was a giant. My knees, man, they were throbbing all the time. I couldn't sit in the car for long stretches; my knees felt like they were going to explode.
