Well, the LeBron James of the world don't come around very often. That's a once-in-a-lifetime kind of thing.

If I see something in somebody, if it's something similar in my shot, I feel like it's the same type of thing in life. People who tell you what to do all the time or have all the answers for you, it's like, 'OK, whatever.' But if you've gone through something in life, you can speak to something a little more.

I only try to talk to people about things I really do use in my shot. If I see something similar and something that will help them, then you try to come to them and say, 'I think I might have something for you. Think about it if you like it.' If they do, and they want to keep talking about it, then I will.

My parents didn't pay for college because we all got scholarships.

I loved being 36.

The playoffs are a chess match, with adjustments every game.

It's easy to draw up isolation basketball - it's not easy to draw up great motion offense with passing and cutting.

I do remember my first 3-point attempt. I missed it.

I love thinking about mechanics and having your mind agree with the mechanics. Sometimes you can shoot it correctly, but your mind doesn't think that it's right. So it's like, how do you get your mind to trust that that's the right way to shoot it.

In Atlanta, we ran a motion offense, so, obviously, I was on the move a lot.

Shooting threes is always going to be what I do best.

I've never been a basketball prodigy. I've always had to work, earn my way. And that's the way I want it to be.

I never casually shoot shots, ever. I shoot the same way every time. I shoot the same shots that I'd shoot during the game.

You have to buy into what the team is doing and get lost in that process. When you make it about yourself, that's when you can start to press a little bit.

Off-seasons hurt when you lose the last game.

It's hard to play basketball without a point guard - it's an important position.

Every moment is big in the playoffs.

Moments can change games; moments can create a run.

Most guys are either big talkers or big workers.

As a shooter, the one thing you want to be is consistent.

You don't want to be a streaky shooter.

Shooting is all about rhythm and confidence, and sometimes those are the last things that get there.

I love it when the best team beats the best players.

I've played for some really good coaches, been on some really good teams. I learned a lot.

When I came into the NBA, coaches wanted you to shoot a midrange shot or two before you shot your 3 - you know, to get an 'easy one' first.

You're always trying to get better. You're always tinkering. You're always learning new things.

Teams are trying to get the advantage over the other team by what kind of reads we can get, how can we measure guys if they're tired - all these things.

Anytime something is a little new and a little fresh, it's going to be critiqued.

There are definitely times during a game when you need someone to step up and make a play.

I've been on some really good teams.

When I first came to Atlanta, I did not want to come here; I got traded here.

Not everyone gets to have one of the few super-dominant, all-pro, superstars in this league, and so playing with the pass and playing with space and playing quick is a really good backup.

I know that I love the whole game of basketball, and that's what I've always believed in.

For me, I've never really thought of myself as labeled as a shooter or whatever. People can say whatever they want.

I have the most amazing job. I play basketball and keep working at it and trying to get better.

I'm not a cold-weather guy.

I never really modeled my game after anybody.

I'm my own person and my own player. Not that I don't admire other players and try and do similar things.

Besides shooting, I think I need to work on everything. I need to get stronger, quicker, work on my ballhandling, and develop a go-to move.

Everyone wants to be liked.

I feel like I'm a pretty good judge of character because I've had to judge a lot of characters.

The people you end up hanging out with are the people you become.

I'm not afraid of changing something to try to be better at it.

I think some people get just locked into 'this is the way it has to be,' and they're afraid of messing something up. I don't ever want to be that way with shooting or with anything, really - not just shooting.

It's good to always try to learn and try to grow.

I've always believed the better the players I'm surrounded by, the better I am. I've never tried to think of myself as anything different. I know who I am as a basketball player and I'm never going to try to pretend that I'm more or less, but definitely not more.

I have a hard time imagining a life without basketball.

A lot of things in life, you can be told the right way to do it, but you've kind of got to learn by your own mistakes. It's just human nature.

I had a column in high school for our school newspaper. I enjoy writing.

I do better in life when my world seems a little smaller.
