I hate acting when I see it. I don’t want to feel it, I don’t want to see it, I want to be taken away with the story – I don’t want the actor’s ego in front of me. That’s what I try to live when I do the work.

Nobody is accustomed to play in front of an empty stadium.
I am a private guy, and at the end of the day, I only really do care about my family. That’s the most important thing: my way of life, my family. Whoever is in front of that is going to get hurt.

It’s basketball, man. It’s being smart, using your size as an advantage. I can get into people. I can get into your stomach, so you can’t back me down. I can stay in front of you, I can move my feet, I can be aggressive. People don’t understand that it can be a disadvantage being tall, too.
I’d rather have a free bottle in front of me than a prefrontal lobotomy.
