JaVale McGee

When I do things, I just fully commit to it.

Rondo is great with the steals, also on offense with the passing and court vision.

If I get traded, I get traded. It's a part of the business.

I'm JaVale McGee, the basketball player, funny guy, whatever, whatever. But I'm just really passionate about music and I don't want people to look at it like 'Oh he's just doing it to get famous.' I'm already pretty famous as is, so I'm not really trying to do it for the money.

I love being around positive people and making people smile.

I don't do anything malicious or anything in a negative manner. I'm all about positivity and making people smile is positive.

I feel like people think that I have mental lapses and I'm injury-prone, which isn't true. You just don't know me.

You've just got to focus on you, yourself, your family, your team... and all the rest is just fluff.

I feel like there was a belief that I couldn't play more than 10 minutes in the league because of asthma or because of anything.

It's just a reassuring feeling, a confidence-builder I guess, knowing that you're going into a situation wanted as an option, like you're really wanted.

Blocking a shot can really demoralize a person and defer them from coming to the rim the rest of the game. So being able to do that and change the landscape of the game by one play is pretty amazing.

I'll stay in the studio for 12 hours at a time, just producing music and making records. It doesn't feel like 'Oh man I've got a job to do.' It's more like 'Oh man I didn't even realize I've been there this long.'
