All the racial slurs I done heard. All the things I heard about my mom, and my basketball game and my kids, all this. It felt good to punch a fan one time.

I'm an assassin on the court. And at home, I'm a nun.

Tim Duncan and Steve Smith made me feel like an All-Star.

I was raised that if I'm with you and we get in a fight, I'm going to help you. We're going down together. That's how it goes.

I think Don King has always been an idiot in my mind. He's always been about money. I don't think he cares about anything else but himself.

I've been at the bottom. I've lost loved ones, I've lost best friends, but that's part of life. I don't hide that.

Being from the South, I was really into Southern rap, but I listened to a lot of stuff from all over.

If you are walking through the hood and you notice the cracks in the sidewalk where all the weeds, pebbles, dirt and grit settle in, that's me.

I am going to be happy regardless where I am at as long as I am playing basketball with some guys that have the same common goal that I have, and that is to win.

I played quarterback, safety and receiver.

All the racial slurs I done heard. All the things I heard about my mom, and my basketball game and my kids, all this. It felt good to punch a fan one time.

I'm from Texas, so we used to wear our pants starched down like a cowboy. So when I got to New York, to New Jersey, everybody was laughing at me like, 'Look at his pants! His pants could stand up by themselves!'

There's one thing that people will never know about Tim Duncan: Tim Duncan might know more UFC moves and more fighting moves than anybody in the UFC.

Anytime you want to take time off from a job that millions of brothers work so hard to get here, that's not being humble.

God chose me for a reason. My momma tells me that every day. I know there's a million people who want to be in my shoes.

I had a taste of a championship in San Antonio, and that was big for me. I cried when we won, and I hadn't cried in 10 years before that. It felt good, everything I'd been through, to say I was the champion at the end of the year.

There's a lot of guys that play the game of basketball for the money, for the fame.

I'm never going to settle for losing.

I never met a dollar that could change me. Been the same guy since day one.

Kobe can play in any league.

I went to Golden State and helped them get to the playoffs my first year there, and they haven't been to the playoffs in 13 years. I played in Charlotte... and I got them to the playoffs. So, every team I go to, I make them better.

I don't want to be a guy who's just sitting on the bench stealing money.

I came into the NBA not looking at it as a job but the same way I did when I was playing at the Y. I was just getting a paid a lot of money to do it, that's all.

You can't expect a coach to win with guys that don't even care about the game.

Nobody wants to play the game more than Kawhi. Nobody wants to be great or go down as one of the greatest more than Kawhi. So his heart and his passion and if he wants to play basketball should never be questioned.

Just because we make a lot of money we're supposed to be the bigger person? Fans tell us that our kids are ugly and that they should have thrown our mothers in jail for having us. That's not disrespectful?

I don't want to be fake.

I'm not going to let Kobe throw elbows at me.

It's hard for any man to take something thrown at his face and not to retaliate.

People don't understand how it feels to be with a guy who you call your teammate and you're with more than your family during the course of a season.

I never thought I would be in a situation where I would have to go into the stands and actually help my teammate fight fans. But at that time, there's no way I could have lived with myself knowing that my teammate is in the stands fighting and I'm not helping him.
