When you've been around the game so much for so many years, it's just like it's a part of you.

'A Christmas Story' is my favorite Christmas movie.

It's no secret that me and New York got history. It's no secret. This is no secret. It's already known.

You've got to be able to finish out the season on a strong note.

My brother was a huge Charles Barkley fan - my brother went to Miami. He played power forward, and he always used to tell me stories about Barkley and college. And I watched Barkley growing up. I loved what he brought to the game. His toughness and just his attitude, being as strong he was.

I knew I wasn't going to be a scientist; I knew that early. When they started talking about dissecting frogs, I knew I wasn't going to be a scientist.

You've got to put in the work. And you've got to play with confidence. You've got to believe in yourself.

I was a typical K-Swiss guy with sweatsuits. I was a ball player, so the ballers, we wore our game shorts to class. We didn't really have a fashion in high school like other kids.

The gym was my sanctuary. The place where you could forget about all your worries, your problems, people asking you for money, people asking you to do this, do that.

Boston is always going to be a second home for me.

I always wanted a little brother because I felt like the little brother had to do everything.

The game isn't over till the clock says zero.

If they're not talking about you, you're not doing something; you're not doing anything. So if they're talking about you, you may be doing something right. And when they talk bad about you, you just use it for motivation.

I'll just continue to be aggressive. That's my thing.

Sometimes the calls just don't go your way. You've just got to learn to deal with those situations and try to prevent yourself from being in the same situation the next game.

It's kind of hard to sit on the bench and watch your team go down when you think you can go out there and make a difference.

You've got to be more focused, especially starting and playing more minutes. You know the ball's going to be in your hand a lot so you've just got to be prepared for it.

People looking down, looking down, don't think a guy like my stature can be an All-Star. And every night I try to step out there and prove them otherwise.

You know, I'm not a selfish guy.

I keep my family around me.

My job is to get out there and try to become the best basketball player I can be.

I feel like if I get my legs under me, strengthen my legs up a lot more I'll be able to get out there and face the challenges of a 3.

I like to get down there and get physical. I like to get down there and try to show my strength, try to be a macho man.

It's fun down there to actually go up against a 7-footer and you know you're undersized and you know people are telling you that you can't guard this guy, you can't do that. I take it as a challenge.
