I think people have had the understanding for many years that whatever happens with the separation of parents, that the kids automatically go to the mother. The fathers don't know their rights.

Of course, from the team we had, I wasn't automatically thrilled, ... I was wondering what went wrong. But you think about the business of the N.B.A. and what we're here to do and you say, 'Jason will be great to run with, Jason will be a great point guard for us.' You move on from what you don't have.

Whenever there is a big game and people don't think I can do it, I always play my hardest, and now it has become a part of me.

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.

Whenever I feel like I'm getting too far away from where I need to be, I think about my sons and the legacy I have to leave for them - and it always brings me back to reality.

I was like, 'Hey, Carmelo Anthony should be playing too.' . . . I think I could have helped.
