Day 1, when I was drafted to the Toronto Raptors, they had this stigma on them: Every guy leaves. Nobody wants to be here. Superstars, nobody wants to play in Canada. From Day 1, my whole mindset and approach to the game, being in Toronto, was I wanted to change that whole narrative to that whole organization.

You gotta be able to take criticism if you want to be anything close to great. Even if it's not true. You use that as an advantage for yourself. You can use that negative energy and turn that into an energy that drives you to be something more than you thought you could be. That's one thing I did.

I'm sure there's a long list of one-time all-stars, and I don't want to be on it.

At the end of the day, the only person to have a better Kobe sneaker game than me is Kobe himself.

It's one of them things that no matter how indestructible we look like we are, we're all human at the end of the day. We all got feelings... all of that.
