Mostly, I go in the weight room and visit.

I know my first years sitting on the bench, largely behind Rickey Green, was a great learning tool for me.

If you start chasing around trying to get steals for your own benefit, then you really put your defense at a disadvantage. It's not a big thing for me; if it happens, great.

I don't go home to parades.

All I know is the same lessons you need to learn at Little League basketball, you need to learn at the upper levels. It's the little things you learn when you're little that apply in college.

Struggles are what made everything worth while.

Essentially, when you join a team, you're making a commitment to your team. You can't take that lightly.

I want my kids to have a life like I did growing up. The greatest gift I was given in life was from my parents. Though I can't match them, I'd like to be that kind of parent.

It's not win or die at my house. We're all competitive, but it's not the type to get stressed out by it.

I have a great respect for people that write. I don't know how they do it every day... or do novels that they have to use their minds instead of just their memories. It's tough duty.

I have an ego like everyone else. I want to be recognized as a good ballplayer.

I didn't want to get caught up in the mind-set that, 'Wait a minute, I'm ahead of Magic. I better slow down.'

You have a different personality in front of the world than you do in front of your pals at home. I like to keep them separate.

I enjoy coaching.

I've played games where I thought I played one of my better games, and statistically, there's nothing there, and vice versa. I've never based how I feel about my performance on stats.

Just because everybody else does something isn't a good enough reason to do anything.

I think everybody should have the attitude that you can't allow yourself to be hurt. You avoid a lot just with that attitude.

I think there are a lot of ways to play the PG position. Scoring first is a way that works for them and their teams. I personally like to watch PGs that like to work for others.

Once I came to Salt Lake City, I didn't want to go anywhere else. It was home sweet home for me.

I just play. I'm not one to think about it. If I get one assist and we win, that's great. Otherwise, I could care less.

I was always the kid dribbling the ball on the sidelines, hoping someone would pick me. I'd go with my older brother to the gym or park, and when I went out there, I'd pass the ball so I could get picked again.

I'm a bartender's son. Some things you never forget.

You can't afford to hop around and act like a kid when you have to get back on defense and worry about the other parts of the game. But at the end, when the buzzer sounds, you have the luxury of hopping around and looking foolish for a while.

You thrive off everybody on your team. If one guy's playing well, that makes your job easier. If a guy's shooting well, it makes your job easier. If a guy's rebounding well, it makes your job easier.
