Just have fun, and just play hard, and just practice a lot.

I just think repetition and getting the game reps shooting the ball in games really helps, rather than just practicing. You can get game timing.

I'm pretty athletic and I play basketball a lot.

I'm busy working on every aspect of my game - defense, shooting, rebounding - but I really want to become a better overall team player. Help my teammates become better players out on the court in order to win more ball games.

I enjoy going on hikes, and I enjoy the occasional yoga. The one thing I'm good at athletically - and I don't know if I'm good at it anymore because I haven't done this in a while - I can throw a pretty good spiral in football, but I have no idea how to play.

I'm just playing basketball. I just want to be a great player. That's it. That's all I'm thinking about. If the other stuff comes, it comes, but I'm just fortunate to play in the NBA Finals and just to play basketball, period.

I'd just like to be good at sports. I'm extremely competitive with absolutely nothing to back it up.

Spend time with your family and try to spend time doing things that you enjoy doing other than basketball.

I've learned a lot from the experiences that I went through in high school, through college and overseas, and just everything in life. That is what prepared me for coming into the NBA, being undersized, no recognition, not getting anything easy, and I have been fortunate to prosper in this league.

I am, first of all, a basketball player. I've done this for so very long... For me, it's been essential to be successful on the court.
