I Love My Fans In Philadelphia, But

When I Was A Little Kid I Used To Go On The Playground And Say: Today I Will Shoot Like Bird, Pass Like Magic, Jump Like Mike, Be Quick Like Zeke. I Am Thankful To Them, Since Without Seeing Them Do Things They Did, I Wouldn't Be In The Nba.

I Just Wanted To Set A Good Example. I Wanted To Do Things That I Hadn't Done Before. My Whole Thing Was To Just Try To Be Professional. I Think When You Work Hard, Good Things Happen, So Obviously, Because We're Going To The Finals.

When You Get To That Level, It's Not A Matter Of Talent Anymore - Because All The Players Are So Talented - It's About Preparation, About Playing Smart And Making Good Decisions. If I Don't Believe It, Then They Don't Need Me On The Court. I've Just Got To Believe That In My Heart.

I Take Everything I Learned From The Streets And Put It In My Nba Game.

I Am The Mvp And I Gotta Worry About The Trade Talk.
