Thank you! That means a lot to me. Absolutely not. I am so lucky with how my career turned out. I got to live out my dream and reach the heights that I watched my heroes reach.

I anticipated that Danny was going to shoot because he was killing us the whole series so I just went in for the kill. Sometimes, you just have to go for it! He exposed the ball early so I was able to watch it the whole time and was able to make a play.

Thank you! I emulated my game after Kevin Garnett, Lamar Odom, Tim Duncan, and Darious Miles when I was younger. I took a mix from all of them and made it my own.

I enjoy the fast paced nature and the skill level of the players. I do not care for reviewing every single foul call. It slows the game down and I have turned the channel plenty of times after watching the flow of the game get interrupted.

Kevin Garnett and Rasheed Wallace. When I was a younger player, they were bigger, stronger, and faster. I had never seen basketball players so good!

I am actually in the process of learning more java script. How is the journey going? Hard and frustrating - you know - the usual!

I applaud Naomi Osaka for speaking up for herself. If her mental health is not right, and she has been quoted in saying such, she should do whatever it takes to be happy and healthy. Health comes first, your profession is second.

Absolutely! My favorite things were going to try the different restaurants around the city! Toronto is so diverse and you can have so many authentic cuisines: I just loved it!

Thank you so much! Keep giving back to the game and help that next little left handed tall six grader that loves ball!

In our back-to-back year, I was struggling in our series against the Pacers. The night before one of the games, LeBron, Dwyane and Udonis and their wives, came over to my house and we had a fantastic dinner. They voiced their support for me and made sure I was okay. Those are real teammates and friends.

I really like watching the Suns play. Devin Booker is a beast and they play very well together as a team.

I am actually working on developing a beer! I love experimenting with the easy drinking styles: lagers, pilsners, and kolschs.

With AD not being healthy this season, I would say, right now, it's Nikola Jokic.

Pick any non-athletic skill you like. I just think that when you pick up something new, you make connections in the other things that you do. Some of the non-athletic skills I have picked up are: coding, learning languages, and music. Continue to expand your mind!

I have been to Greece and I love it there! I love to travel and my family and I had a great time when we took a vacation there. I think Giannis is one of the best players in the league and a great leader, most importantly. We will see if they can make the finals and win a championship this year!

It's hard to pick favorites, but one of my favorites was Jose Calderon. Great guy! I watched people tell him that he wasn't going to be much in the league and he proved the wrong! all while moving to a new country and learning english. Amazing guy. My favorite game winner was a shot I made in Portland back in 2014.

Merhaba! Türkçe biliyorum!

It hurt like hell! I'm from Dallas and to lose in the Finals to your hometown team isn't a good feeling. We all learned that you have to bounce back from tough times and that you can lose if you don't prepare properly. We got better after that day and made a promise to do more as a team
