Fans are awesome.
From Nate Robinson
As a kid growing up, I wanted the Allen Iverson shoes that came out, the Questions. My dad got them for me, so I was excited about that.
I am a diehard Seahawks fan because I'm born and raised in Seattle.
I love for the crowd to feed off me, and I try to make my teammates feed off me.
Actually, I'm 5-8 and change without shoes. With shoes, 5-9.
I love basketball, but I miss football every time I watch it.
My dad said, 'Stay humble, and you gotta work harder than everybody else.' My mom said, 'Always be yourself.' She always told me only God can judge me.
There's so many kids in the world who are told, 'You can't do this, you can't do that.' Those are all put-downs. I'm all about pick-ups. You have to pick people up and pay it forward.
You don't have to be the biggest, tallest, strongest guy to do whatever you want to do. You can do anything. There's tall doctors, short doctors. It doesn't matter. You don't have to be the tallest guy to play the sport of basketball, football or whatever you want to play.
We're a competitive family - we compete in everything we do: playing cards; if we're walking down the street, we want to be the first one down the block.
