I've got an addiction to this game. An addiction to being perfect.

I'm in the search for the perfect game.

We need to find ways to grow as a team and get better to be the best team possible.

Flip Saunders is a great coach and a great guy. Glen Taylor is the same way. He's a great human being.

The thing is, you don't ever want to have pressure turn to stress.

It doesn't matter if it's game one or game 82, playoffs or whatever. Sometimes the basketball gods don't play in your favor that night.

I compete at the highest level every single night, regardless what the outcome is.

You dwell too much on the past, you forget that you've got to take care of the present.

When you have someone who is with you every step of the way and is trying to help you and guide you to the right direction, it just makes life much easier but also makes life more fun.

When I was younger, I was taught to be as versatile as possible.

If you're versatile, there's no reason a coach can't have you in the game. That's what my dad's philosophy was, so from a young age, he taught me to be a guard first and a big second, though I don't think he had a crystal ball to be able to see what the NBA would become.

One of the things that has benefited me in my career is being part of the new age of technology: the ability growing up to get on the Internet at friends' houses and go on YouTube and watch videos of great players.

I'm not a guy who's about the material things.

My family brings me great energy.

That's what my game is built around: versatility.

I work on my body tremendously to be able to withstand whatever is thrown my way.

I think my personality is not because I was born this way but because I was raised this way. I was raised with a lot of fun, a lot of joy, a lot of happiness, a lot of passion, and that's how my family is.

My favorite memory of Kevin Garnett is not a memory - it's more of the experience I had with him for a year, just enjoying that moment of being his teammate, conversing with him every single day, learning from him every single day.

The personal impact KG has had on me is life-changing. He's been the most important piece to my career in the NBA and one of the best friendships I have in my life. So I'm always blessed to say that he's my brother. We bonded so well because of how passionate and emotional we both are.

Other than basketball, I just come to KG for advice on life, just understanding how business works and understanding how I can be a better leader and also be a better human being.

I think the biggest thing with me is that I just pride myself on being the best human being I can be.

I just feel that if you're the best human being, God will bless you with success.

I love playing all types of games. I'll play everything, and the best thing is that 'Call of Duty' is dipping their hand in the battle royale genre. Anytime 'Call of Duty' puts their hands on anything, you know it's going to be the highest quality, so I expect nothing less of 'Call of Duty,' and they're delivering.

I'd even say possibly I'm one of the best gamers in the NBA. I play everything. I play every single type of genre game.

That's why esports is so awesome: it's just like professional sports.

It's great for people who like the teamwork and that also like the commando style, and that's why I think 'Call of Duty' is so successful.

Growing up, I'd always been told that my biggest weakness was my body and how that was probably going to hold me back from accomplishing my dreams.

When you're in part of the same draft class, you always have a certain connection that not many other people can have with each other.

Marc Gasol, he's one of the hardest people to guard. His ability to pass, shoot, and his size is something that can be a benefit to him a lot.

I love Minnesota. The cold is fine with me, being from New Jersey.

You've gotta play a head game; especially blocking shots, you've gotta make it hard. You're playing against the best of the best: they're not gonna go straight to the basket, do a layup. You've gotta lure them into some shots.

You just gotta change your game to the environment.

I work hard on my game.

All those teams I was on that were successful were the ones that everyone had love for each other and had fun. Things that seem minuscule - joking around, laughing, conversing, all those things that seem childish - that is what builds camaraderie.

The most important characteristics you need to succeed in business are resilience, determination and persistence.

You don't really do much in life unless you take risks, push yourself and find your passion.

We've got to start making people realise that it's a proud thing to run a business, to export your goods around the country.

By the time I sold Birmingham City football club in 2009, 75% of the directors were women, which I take great pride in - that's unique in business, full stop.

The characteristics of successful business people, whether they are male or female, are very similar. It's about determination, it's about enthusiasm, it's about strategy, it's about communication, it's about integrity. And sometimes men and women display those differently but fundamentally they are the same qualities.

My greatest mistake? I once took a three-day maternity leave. I had my daughter on a Wednesday, and then went back to the office on the Monday to sack a manager.

Running your own business can be the loneliest job in the world. You are the MD, answer the phone and make tea, handle the invoices and have to make payments on time.

The world is divided into three types of people in business: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened.

Any board executive can forget just how many people helped them get where they are. Those women who have got to the top need actively to ensure there is a pipeline of younger women, whether by networking or mentoring, who in turn are encouraging those below them.

The one thing I wanted was independence. And I realised to have that independence, you needed financial independence.

My kids are my life. Sitting on the sidelines watching my son play rugby, helping them with their homework or getting them ready for their exams - I can't think of anything else I'd rather do.

For me, I may have titles like CEO, director or vice chairman but the best title for me is 'working mother.'

I don't invest in shares in companies that don't have women on their board.

The biggest lesson my kids have taught me is to find the joy in little things, along with a healthy dose of patience.

On 'The Apprentice,' I'm 100 per cent certain I'm paid the same as Claude Littner. I insisted on equality when I negotiated my contract. I would not have allowed anything else.

In my experience, not all women want to run the world. Not all women want to run a big banking conglomerate. Not all women want to be prime minister. What a lot of women want is a good career that respects them… and high-quality, affordable childcare.
