Athlete

Guys who might not be superstars but because of their hustle, because of the little things they do, these are the guys who can really mean the difference between winning and losing.

The biggest thing is to let your voice be heard, let your story be heard.

The Miami Heat floor is great, but a lot of them are not.

I grew up in Chicago, and I understand what Michael Jordan symbolizes.

Growing up, I always dreamed of winning an NBA championship, never a gold. A gold was something that never crossed my mind.

The thing is, I don't do these things for recognition, being a good teammate, being a positive member of the community. I do them because those things make me whole and complete.

I'm the kind of parent who asks my kids questions like, 'What would be your ideal thing to do in the summer?'

I understand being the villain is what people like. People play to that. They want to know about the villain.

I don't think the world focuses on the positive things enough.

I supported Obama because of his relationships. A lot of the things he believes in, you would say that it's not in the best interest for someone in my tax bracket, but it's not about that. It's about him making the world better and making it equal and even all around, and that's what I'm supporting when I supported Obama.

I think you really have to become a parent to understand what you will endure to be there for your kids.

You know, 10 years ago I never thought I'd be in this position. It's a dream and I don't even know if I dreamed this big.

All children need their fathers, but boys especially need fathers to teach them how to be men.

I understand that I'm not perfect. I made mistakes and I had a hand in everything that's happened to me, good and bad.

I'm on a team with LeBron James and Chris Bosh, and they both dress well. It gets competitive. If I don't bring my A game, they're going to outshine me.

The biggest surprise has been making the adjustment after losing a game. In the NBA you could lose tonight and you have to put that game behind you because you have another game the next night.

I'm an athlete, so I can dress down with the best of them. I can throw on t-shirts and sweats with the best of them.

I wanted to be a football player. Football is a sport that I love, but the more I started playing basketball, the more I started dreaming of playing in the NBA.

People don't need to necessarily see me in the jersey to understand who I am and what message I'm trying to get across with the things that I'm marketing.

I think the main thing for kids is to have them believe in themselves.
