When I went through my life, I was like, 'I sit around and play video games all day. Nobody wants to hear about this.'

Most kids would be like, 'My dad's never around.' But I saw it as a positive. He was out there working to provide for me.

If you have a kid that loves basketball - that eats, sleeps, drinks, and thinks basketball, and all he knows is basketball - and he gets hurt, and he's your franchise player, you need to hold him back from himself.

I'm a goof. C'mon, everyone knows that.

I don't think anyone's worth $100 million if Michael Jordan wasn't, but hey, that's what Abe Pollin thought I was worth, and if someone puts $100 million in front of you, you're gonna take it, too.

Some people just can't forgive. And that's just the way life is. You know, I can't forgive some things, either.

I have so much entertainment going on in my house that I don't need to go out.

I want politicians coming to me and asking me for advice.

When I look back on my career, from the hard work I put in, I got everything I deserved.

That's what I was known for: I was a gym rat.

If we lost a game, and I thought I played bad, I'm staying in the gym to keep shooting. That's what I did.

John Wall - me and him talk a lot.

When you blink, you're on the back end of your career.

I feel like most ex-NBA players don't embrace the team they played for.

I lived in Washington longer than I have lived anywhere else, so it's considered home, even though I moved back to California.

I think I'm one of the rare people out there who still cares about the game of basketball.

I can interact with anybody, but I'm shy.

I can lack communication with people. I shy away from everybody. I always want to be alone.

I'm smarter than the average; I just act dumb. That's what gets people's attention; you act dumb, you get people's attention.

I'm an app creator.

You get paid on what you did, not what you're gonna do. That's what people don't understand. You get paid on what you did.

Fans saying a player is overpaid doesn't bother a player. What bothers an injured player is watching your competitors grow.

I was on my way to becoming a Hall of Famer and having my name in the rafters, but three surgeries in 14 months, that is not good. I wasn't the same player.

You can't fault a player because he got injured.
