My mother and grandmother raised me. Queens raised me.

My grandmother was always upbeat, a naturally happy person. I think I got that from her.

Death always seems to be around me.

The Lakers have been nothing but great to me, and I want to keep the relationship great.

The Mavericks and I have mutually agreed that it's in the best interest of both parties for me to step away from the team.

I don't want a girlfriend because that means I've got a responsibility. I have a responsibility to call you. I have a responsibility not to be with another woman. I have a responsibility to be there on time when you need me.
