You learn that there's no right way to do it, no wrong way to do it. It's just what you feel comfortable with, to trust that, and don't let anybody box you in to a certain style of parenting or make you feel a certain way about what your kids do.Collection: Parenting
Sometimes people make it seem like you have to have certain prerequisites or a crazy life story in order to be successful in this world. But the truth is you really don't.Collection: Truth
With the NBA's dress code, I had to revamp my wardrobe a little bit. They call it 'business casual.' You have to wear dress jeans or dress slacks, with a collared shirt or sweater. And you can't wear athletic shoes.Collection: Business
We're going to have to work. We're going to have to play well. Nothing will be given to us.Collection: Work
It doesn't matter where you come from, what you have or don't have, what you lack, or what you have too much of. But all you need to have is faith in God, an undying passion for what you do and what you choose to do in this life, and a relentless drive and the will to do whatever it takes to be successful in whatever you put your mind to.Collection: Faith
When I moved out, my mom and dad came to help me get settled into my apartment - a place I ultimately got hooked up with in Coach Nelson's building. We had to figure out how to get all my shoes over here. That was a little stressful.Collection: Dad
I like that Brita makes tap water taste good, so you don't need to spend money or waste plastic with bottled water.Collection: Money
We knew sports was important to us and our family, but there are priorities in life.Obviously, faith is foremost; how we did in school is important. If we didn't handle that business then there were no privileges.Collection: Faith
I want to thank God, obviously for the health, for the talent He's given me, for my family who supports me, for the things that basketball's taught me on and off the court. For the people that I've been able to meet through the game of basketball.Collection: Health
My parents had us in church every Sunday, every Wednesday. It was more of a tradition at that point; I didn't have a personal relationship with the Lord until I went to the altar call one Sunday, and the youth pastor told us to make a decision for ourselves.Collection: Relationship
When I step forward on the floor, I have the confidence that I'm the best player playing that night and that I am the most prepared at what I need to be doing.Collection: Best
I think about the milestones from my childhood and what it will be like to watch our kids go through them. Taking Riley to her first day of school was a whirlwind. I can't imagine what middle school is going to be like, and high school, and graduation.Collection: Graduation
I've been blessed in that regard through and through. So I'm just thankful for this opportunity to play the game that I love and share that with the world.Collection: Thankful
I've always believed that success for anyone is all about drive, dedication, and desire, but for me, it's also been about confidence and faith.Collection: Faith
I'm not in the business of ranking or debating who is what.
Everybody asks if putting is like shooting free throws. It has a very similar kind of mindset. And it's just you, the ball, and the target.
The biggest thing is just routine. I think that's the biggest correlation between golfers and basketball players.
It's kind of a weird process being pitched by the company you're already with.
Someone did a graphic of me in my jersey, and Jordan, they dubbed him guarding me, and Kanye's face was on both of us. That's my favorite meme of all time - or so far to-date. I'm gonna have to get that blown up on my wall or something.
I know what I do for my team and what my teammates expect of me on both ends of the floor.
I know the blessing of having a dad who played 16 years in the league. That experience, and seeing him as an example, let me know that it's possible. It's not easy, but it's possible.
I wasn't going to shy away from getting married when I did and having a baby young and starting a family, even with the job that I chose.
We have a great group of guys that really sacrifice every night, care about each other, and try to play the right away.
That summer after the draft was probably the most fun I've ever had, because all I had to do every day was wake up and go work out for four or five hours. I got to play some golf, which I love to do, too, and then got to hang out with my family.
Any East Coast road trip we have is very exciting, just being on the road, taking it all in.
It's crazy how fast you get out of shape if you miss a couple days of action.
Once it gets down to single-digit games, you know the season's end is approaching, and we're all pretty physically tired.
Most home teams have chapels, so when I'm on the road I'll probably go to their services.
I am pretty chill before games. Have a go-to routine that keeps me busy until we are ready to take the court so I'm not just sitting around anxious for the game.
I am not a BART regular but have taken it probably five times to and from the city with some of my teammates. Nice to just hop on the train and enjoy some of the views of the Bay Area while I'm out.
Steak and Shake in Indianapolis is definitely the first stop when we hit that city.
All of us are in the same place, each with our own rooms, and we were allowed to do whatever we wanted. Which is totally different than college, where they manage your schedule for you. In the NBA, you're on your own.
Back in Oakland, we have a lot of food in the locker room, but on the road, it's mostly just fruit. So we have to prepare differently. But really, once you get to the gym, everything on the road is pretty much the same.
I had talked to a lot of people in Golden State's front offices before the draft. They said they liked me, but they had a lot of guards, so I didn't think that I would end up there.
The last game I played in college was in the NIT against St. Mary's. That was the first time I had come to the Oakland area. So, the last game I played in college and the first game of my NBA career were out here in the Bay Area. It's pretty cool.
There are so many things we have to overcome in this life with Jesus, His work on the cross. He's paid the ultimate price for us, so I'm proud to be a child of God.
A wet spot on the floor kind of put a scare in myself, so you never know inside those lines what might happen.
I'm blessed to have such a tight-knit family that we can talk about anything. Whether we talk frequently or not, since we're on separate ends of the country, there are a lot of moving parts, and we always stay tight and find that center ground that keeps us together.
We're not going to go 82-0 and blow everybody out. We are going to be challenged.
I never looked at my mantel and envisioned an MVP trophy sitting there. This is pretty crazy.
To be able to finish opportunities that I do get in the paint, that makes a difference.
For me, when you are have people wondering what is next, what is coming out, you are on the right track.
In the NBA, you're never immune to rumors and trade rumors and free agency stuff.
There's a reason that I have confidence out there, and it's about how I prepare for games and for series and seasons and whatnot, so we've got to stick with that kind of thought process.
I won't have to do any major changes to continue my career a long way, hopefully. Just hopefully stay healthy and be able to help a team out as I go through and still play at a pretty high level.
People have told me, 'You shouldn't bring your daughter onto the podium, 'cause it's the workplace,' and things like that. But I'm not gonna really listen to that. I'm gonna do what I think is fun for me and my family, and everything'll be all right.
I try to do the fancy things out there by going with both hands, making crossover moves, and having a certain creativity and flair to my game.
A lot of guys are able to separate how they act off the court versus how they act on the court.
I hope to play until I'm, like, 38 or something, and that's a lot of years in the game and a lot of travel and a lot of sacrifice on my family's part.
Hopefully I won't be the last big splash at Under Armour.
