No, no, no, I'm not a fashion show type of dude.

When I was growing up, my grandmother cooked every day. She is the best chef ever.

I didn't eat at many restaurants when I was younger. There wasn't much in South Central anyways, except for fast food joints.

L.A. has such great restaurants, from fancy spots to hole-in-the-wall, there is something for everybody.

Everything in moderation is what I always try to tell myself. But whether you're an athlete or not, its always important to eat healthy.

You just need a good coach. A coach that you respect.

I don't mind following good leaders.

'Elf' is one of my favorites.

I got a bond with all my teammates. Well, the ones that's real. The ones that I'm cool with, I'm cool with. It's a bond and a brotherhood.

When I got hurt, I wanted to develop my skills from a storytelling perspective, do the work, read books. Develop things. To be the storyteller for basketball, period.

I can pretty much tell which way a meeting's gonna go in the first three or four minutes. Because if someone's not taking me seriously, I'm definitely not taking them seriously.

I've always dreamed about playing for a team that's unselfish.

Throw me to the wolves. I learn faster when I'm around wolves and sharks.

Steph Curry - I haven't seen anyone on his level, bringing that type of showmanship with excellence.

I hope my son becomes the next Steph Curry.

I want to play until I'm 38.

I could see myself coaching at the high school level, but I'd really love to coach at UCLA. That would be a dream for me.

I would love to go into coaching someday.

Man, to make the Hall would be incredible. I'd cry for, like, five weeks straight.

I was a young player, young star in this league. I probably wasn't handling the responsibility the way I should.

A lot of times, it takes you a while to grow, especially in this league, because year to year is different.

I'm the king of L.A.

I felt that N.Y. is the mecca of basketball. The love that I have for basketball, I feel it here.

People say all kinds of hurtful things, but I've learned to tune it out the best I can.

My goals all along were to win state and play in the McDonald's All-American game. I'm happy I was able to accomplish those things.

Tim Floyd was a guy from college who hadn't won in the league and he still had that college coaching style of a dictatorship. He didn't want to listen.

I'm a believer in starting from the bottom.

Delaware is not like Hollywood. But Delaware is cool. All you really need is a gym and a couple good places to eat and a movie theater.

Playing on the Clippers, that was the first time I really felt like I was like on an island by myself.

I think sports is the healing mechanism around the world.

Filming 'The Drew,' thinking a lot about story arcs and all that stuff, I thought about how my career ended. I decided I wanted to try to rewrite that.

It's not fun if you're sitting on the bench and aren't playing during Christmas. Damn, dude, I could've been watching this at home with my family. As long as you get some camera action on Christmas time, it's OK.

Any time you go into a new environment, you have to learn a new system, there are adjustments you have to make.

History lets you know exactly where you are today. And if you pay attention to it, it gives you a broad perspective of everyone. You can relate it to pretty much any time.

A lot of times you can fall into the trap of expecting too much before things actually happen.

Sometimes the Knicks just need to be the Knicks. And not the New York Knicks. What I mean by that is that they're New York's team and everybody is going to be focused on that. But they should learn to pace themselves, set goals and be patient with what they're doing.

Fear of failure is a great thing. It pushes you past your comfort levels.

When you have an icon that wants you to succeed, it's awesome.

I have a brother; we had some good brawls.

Our dad was an iron worker, a really tough guy. He raised us to be strong and stand up for ourselves. Whatever we want, we go and get it. Sometimes, you have to take it.

Everybody always asked why I wanted to be an offensive lineman. I told them that I had 11 different people I can hit on every single play, while everyone else is chasing one person. I prided myself on being an extremely physical and dominant player.

One time, I was practicing against the Tennessee Titans, and one of their defensive linemen took a cheap shot at our running back, so I planted him.

I am going to be the best, make the most money, and just do whatever I want, when I want.

Football and boxing helped me immensely. Those sports helped me become dangerous.

Most people settle in life, and that's not me.

I have a lot of pride in myself and believe I am better than a lot of people.

It was great to get rid of the long hair. It's such a pain that, if you look at it, it's always wet when guys wrestle: you dump gallons of conditioner in it to keep it wet so you're not choking on it. You have all kinds of stuff in it, and just maintaining it is a lot of work.

I don't envy people with long hair. So, I'm glad mine is gone.

I'm the real deal.

The NFL, boxing, jiu-jitsu - I did that. I'm proven at what I can do.
