I have orders not to come back until I'm a thousand percent.
They say old people always come to Arizona, you know, to get recharged.
Everything is done out of respect, whether it's a cheer or a boo.
I'm going to be looking to get out like Randy Moss and Terrell Owens.
My father made me who I am. He gave me a basketball and told me to play with the ball, sleep with the ball, dream with the ball. Just don't take it to school. I used it as a pillow, and it never gave me a stiff neck.
I'm not going to go home and drink rat urine.
I'm one year older, one year sexier - one more, baby. For me, it's all about the bigger picture. We want to win the whole thing. We've got to beat whoever is in our way.
On paper, I think this is the best team I've been on.
I'm pretty much able to play any style. I'm not here to demand 40 or 50 shots. But I would like 30.
My sons love LeBron more than they love me. I'm just a little jealous about it.
We're the most experienced team in the league. I think we got a little too happy, running our mouths, jumping up and down, looking at the Heat dancers and all of that stuff. We had to step it up and show them what we're all about.
We have strict orders: If we talk about it we get fined $50,000.
It's over now. He said what he had to say, I said what I had to say. Don't play with me. Seriously, don't play with me.
He can play. He can shoot. He can dribble. He can pass. He's a great player. Period. No question about it. And if anyone thinks Dirk is not a great player, I'll punch them in their face.
No one was there. Some teammates, huh? I guess they didn't want to get their lip busted like the gentleman I busted. Sorry for that sir.
I just want to say, 'Nice job,' but now let the professional take over. There can only be one me. Uno más me.
It feels good. It's not bad for somebody who can't shoot.
If he wants to get that next contract, he's going to have to go to the New York Athletic Club three times a day and just ride the bike.
In junior high in Germany I fought kids all the time. I had such a bad temper, I almost got thrown out of school. A few lickings from my dad got me out of that scene. He wore me out with a paddle.
I don't ever want to grow up. I guess I'm like Peter Pan. Grown-ups have problems. I want to stay happy.
It's t'ai chi every time. I'm using your positive energy, and I'm blowing off it. See, most guys can't push, they got to lean. When they lean, I spin.
When I first came in, I partied and had a good time. I used to spend $500,000 on chains that don't make no sense. Then I started having babies. I don't do the bull**** no more.
When you've got a guy that's going to look for you, you run. A lot of people think I can't run, but my thing was I wasn't going to be running if you're not going to throw it. I know Nash will throw it.
I'm sort of like a specialist. I go in, do what I do and every four years, they get tired of me and I have to relocate myself.
That's what I do. I get in and get under people's skin and all that stuff. But you will remember me - and that's all that matters.
