You know, God gave me a gift to do other things besides play the game of basketball.

If a guy pays you five dollars, you give him seven dollars worth of work.

You can do anything you want to do if you want it bad enough.

If you really have integrity, there are very few people who can insult you, or honor you.

The most important measure of how good a game I played was how much better I’d made my teammates play.

I just bring the determination to win.

But ever since I was a kid, I was always the winner.

My relationship with Northeast Ohio is bigger than basketball. I didn't realize that four years ago. I do now.

I'm just a little kid from Akron.

I think, team first. It allows me to succeed, it allows my team to succeed.

I enjoy the competition and whatever it takes throughout the competition, I will do it.

I do have motivation. A lot of motivation.

I told myself if I ever made it to the level I want to be at, I'm gonna give back.

I feel confident because I'm the best player in the world. It's that simple.

Every night on the court I give my all, and if I'm not giving 100 percent, I criticize myself.

I'm ready to accept the challenge. I'm coming home.

My dream has become a reality now, and it's the best feeling I've ever had.

Maybe my pain was my motivation.

That's one of my biggest obstacles. I'm afraid of failure. I want to succeed so bad that I become afraid of failing.
