People see me high-fivin' and smiling on the court, and they don't think that's me. But it is. I just want to go out and be myself.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm a different person off the court than I am on the court, where I'm very competitive, a perfectionist, and I can be hard on myself sometimes. Off the court, nothing really bothers me. I'm easy-going.
Don't worry what people say or what people think. Be yourself.
That excitement on the court, I'm the same way off the court. I like to have fun, meet people; I like to give high-fives to the kids courtside. Just have fun. That's kind of my personality, that's how I've been.
Don't look at someone else and want to be them. Search within yourself and find out who you are and be someone positive.
Everyone kept telling me, Just be yourself. Be yourself. I kept thinking, there's got to be more to it than that!
Stand on the stage in front of 15 people or 15,000. Have them look up to you and tell you how wonderful you are, and if you don't think that's a great feeling, okay, then you're unlike me.
Be yourself. You're okay. And it really doesn't matter what other people think.
I have fun out there on the court, smiling, laughing, trying to have good demeanor.
Oh, I get pretty fired up on the court. I try to play with a lot of emotion, especially when I'm playing in front of a large crowd. I want to go out and do my best, and to do that, I have to play with the most energy possible.
I want to look good when people see me.
