I explained to my teammates I didn’t want any distractions to the team.

I have a lot of confidence in my shot and I’m willing to shoot it no matter what.

I never had a problem with a coach in my life, no matter what team I’ve been in on.

I think a lot of people don’t understand that when I sit out it’s not because of this year. I’m thinking about long term. I’m thinking about after I’m done with basketball.

I think good things come to good people.

I wont ever put myself in a bad position so that people can say bad things about me. I make smart decisions, and my friends and my family, they are all there for the right reason.

If I just do everything the opposite of what my dad did, I think that will make things pretty easy. I can joke about it now because I’m past that stage where it used to hurt. By having a kid, it’s gone. I could take all that negative energy that I had and put it in a positive way.

Derrick Rose

If i’m not trying my best, I might as well retire.

Derrick Rose

My biggest thing is to improve my all-around game. If you don’t win, something’s wrong. Winning takes care of everything, so our biggest thing is winning.
