A basketball was in my hands 24/7, playing one-on-one against everybody and anybody, trying to prove against the older guys, just playing. The wind blowing outside, double rims, stuff like that, just always playing ball.
I try to penetrate the lane like Steve Nash, pass like Jason Kidd, and handle the ball like Allen Iverson. Remember, I said 'try to'.
I always felt most at home on a basketball court, dating all the way back to when I was growing up in Brooklyn.
I really like Rafer Alston. We get along great. We have a lot of fun times together that I canââ¬â¢t share with you guys.
I'm just a hooper.
Allen Iverson is, like, my all-time hero.
There are certain guys in the league that get their rhythm off their dribble.
I used to like Tim Hardaway.
I can play with my back to the basket, but I can face up as well.
Street basketball is all about shakes and fakes, crossing your defender up. The NBA is more strategic.
J-Lin is a phenomenal playmaker. He can pass the ball with either hand, left or right. Me, I'm more of a quick, defensive spot-up shooter.
