When I was growing up, I never thought I would play in the NBA.

The respect I had to give my brothers and sisters growing up I think has helped me. I want my kids to be raised the same way.

I wouldn't give Charles Barkley an apology at gunpoint. He can never expect an apology from me... If anything, he owes me an apology for coming to play with his sorry, fat butt.

As I look back, I have to say growing up was fun, not a problem at all.

I don't like to criticise referees because I believe it is a very complicated job, and what they do is very beneficial for football.

I think every athlete should give back to schools. I know athletes donate and have things that they give charity to, but, at the end of the day, it's the younger generation that we need to be helping.

My approach to cricket has been reasonably simple: it was about giving everything to the team, it was about playing with dignity and it was about upholding the spirit of the game. I hope I have done some of that. I have failed at times, but I have never stopped trying. It is why I leave with sadness but also with pride.

I grew up in Cleveland, so my heart got attached at a young age to the freight train of sadness that is Cleveland sports.
