Patience is weapon. I learned that from my Laker days.

It's cool to be a Laker: that's basketball royalty, in a sense. The best franchise in basketball, so to be drafted by them is pretty cool, pretty special.

I am highly offended by the total lack of acknowledgement of my contribution to Laker success.

I have nothing but respect for the Lakers. So many of their legends shaped who I am as a person and player.
