I think I have what a New York City point guard is made of: toughness, a lot of heart, and the ability to be a leader.

I think, from just playing street ball and stuff like that, I was always able to play up with the older guys, and I think that got me physically and mentally prepared to play on a high level of basketball.

Connecticut is home for life. I'm so glad I chose to go to school here.

Without my parents, I would be nothing, so I'd like to thank them.

I've played at MSG at basically every level of my career, starting from high school.

It just feels good when I'm shooting.

I feel like I'm dreaming. 10,000 points in the NBA. It's crazy.

In the league, anything can happen. Once one team gets momentum, things can change really fast.

Kids from New York usually don't stay in New York anymore: they go to prep schools and all sorts of stuff nowadays. I'm just happy to be one of the guys in our league from New York, to represent.

I just have that extra boost in games. I don't know why.

It's tough when you're a young player and sometimes things are not going your way.

When I get down, I can sense my teammates looking at me, and they can get down as well. That was something I had to learn over the years.

Marvin Williams is solid, and he can shoot, and he'll definitely stretch the defense.

My teammates trust me; they know I make the right plays. I'm not a selfish guy.

What I'm trying to do is play the game the right way, not force shots up. Whenever I have my opportunities, take 'em.

I know teams are gameplanning against me, trying to not let me shoot pull-ups, basically trying to take me out of the game as much as they can.

I just wanna stay loyal to the people who are loyal to me.

I guess it's a good thing to know that I am wanted.

I'm a loyal guy.

I put my work in throughout my career to become the player I am today. It's never about the money. I want to win.

I'm not a big traveler.

I'm tired of not being in the playoffs... I hate watching them on TV.

There are definitely die-hard fans. That's one thing about people from Brooklyn: they're very loyal, die-hard, believe in their team.

What kid doesn't want to play in MSG? I've been fortunate enough to play there many, many times during my basketball career. Every chance I get to play there, I try to embrace it. I just love playing there.
