A few people were working on the lease and they sent it down with 10 days to vote on it. And it was like, 'if you don't like the lease, you don't like baseball, and you're the bad guy.' Certainly, you look at that and say it was somewhat disrespectful. |
Actually, it was a little weaker than when I was here. |
Brian is the guy who explains it all to me. He gives it to me straight, and he breaks it down and makes it plain, whether you like it or not. ... In the beginning, I might be a little mad or something. But then I listen because I know he has my best interest (in mind). |
But we're going to be good. How many teams have two all-stars? |
Guys like Kobe and Lamar know where they should be (in the Lakers' offense), ... I'm still learning where I'm supposed to be. |

I became an easy target, especially in that media market in Washington. Everybody was writing negative stuff. But I think I've grown a lot since last year because I've shown my maturity. |
I couldn't see nothing. I was bleeding, eyes watering. |
I don't go with the notion that baseball's just going to walk in three days. I understand the consequences if I vote yes, and I understand the consequences if I vote no. |
I don't see baseball backing out. Why would they leave in a market that's flourishing and that wants them? I think we'll come up with something that's a win-win situation. |
I feel good and the energy and the respect my teammates are showing me means a lot. They are looking for me in the post. It started off in practice where everyone is coming together and we are showing up better prepared for the game. |
I got held on the previous play, so when he held my arm, I just lifted up. He may have acted a little more than I did, because all I did was pull my arm up. And I just stood over him a little bit. |
I just thank God that I'm out of Washington and looking forward to getting here and turning things around for myself and my family. |

I just tried to play the right way. |
