You can't get discouraged when you lose games because basketball is such a process and so much happens during each practice and game.

When you play and do things the right way and follow the game plan, you're going to be more successful than not.

Our job as vets and role players is when you get your opportunity make the coach realize what he's missing out there.

Shaq had an uncanny sense of how to utilize the media.

Few big men have possessed the rare combination of power, speed and agility of Shaq.

When you look up the definition of 'superstar' in the dictionary, there should be a picture of Shaquille O'Neal.

I want to give myself options and maybe be able to work at ESPN, or do blogs at NBC or be a sports reporter.

There are going to be fans who say rude, disrespectful things.

For me, personally, I try to deal on Twitter only in positive.

I would say players have utmost respect for James Harden. For one, he's improved every year, and also, for me, as a shooter, he gets his shooters involved.

LeBron is the most unselfish superstar we have.

Most guys don't want to play with Kobe.

Games can be won or lost in one or two plays.

If you can't stretch the floor in the NBA, it's hard for you to be competitive or even have a chance.

For any team, confidence is so important.

I was on veteran teams in Charlotte where we won 17 or 18 games. There were times that we lost by 20 for two or three straight games, then came in and watched film, learned from our mistakes. We learned about things like making the extra pass.

You've got to know your role. I was never built like someone who was 6-9 or 6-10, didn't have athleticism and became a good shooter. Wasn't a natural shooter. So for me, it's being smart. It's a guy, I used to look at Shane Battier; take angles, play the right way, a winner. Do all the little things.

Even though I'm not a five-man, everywhere I've been, I've controlled a lot of defenses, transition defense and putting guys in the right position.

At one point in the NBA in my second year, I was a two-guard.

The quicker you can establish roles, the better chance you have of being a successful team.

I pride myself on being someone who does the little things and works hard.

For me, to see the ball go in once or twice, it breeds confidence.

Every basketball player wants to wear their team's throwback jerseys.

You show your character through the good times and the bad times and for me it's just about being professional.

When you start hitting some shots, you build some confidence.

I am from San Diego, and I went to college in Boston, so I have seen the opposite coasts.

Obviously your knees are real big when shooting.

I definitely think I'm kind of more of an East Coast player than a West Coast player. But I knew at a young age, too, that if I didn't get a scholarship that I was going to go to prep school.

I knew that basketball was my love and the only way for me to go to college was to get a scholarship.

I don't have to be a leading scorer or be the man.

When I grew up it was Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls, the Lakers, the Boston Celtics, those were the teams you loved or hated and me being from San Diego, you loved the Lakers.

I like being on good teams.

There are so many Clippers fans in San Diego.

What Steve Nash and Chris Paul do is they kind of hide your weaknesses.

Everyone watches the Lakers, let's be honest.

I knew, hey, if I can become an elite shooter, I'll be able to play in the NBA for 10-12 years.

I've always been an outgoing guy. But I know as an athlete, I have an obligation to be a role model.

I understand how powerful social media can be.

There are a lot of people out there that you can touch their heart by playing basketball.

I'm trying to get an internship at the ESPYS. I'd like to do interviews on the red carpet.

The Warriors, when Kevin Durant came, they played more iso ball than the year before. Kevin Durant made them change who they were because of his talent.

When you're not dealing with superstars, coaches want players to fit their system. But superstars are the system.

It's easy to be the greatest teammate when you're winning. How about when you're losing? How about when you're down 20?

The key to the fadeaway is your legs.

When you're a role guy, there are games when you're not going to shoot that much.

I'm the face of the B.C. alumni organization.

I'm the only player in NBA history to be 10 for 10 in a game with at least four threes made.

You want to help your teammates.

When you win and you shoot badly, it doesn't really matter. Stats and all the other stuff doesn't matter.

If anyone knows me, I feel like I'm half-media, half-player as it is.
