The best player I've ever played against is Kobe Bryant. I have seen him do some stuff that is just unbelievable.

If you do the best you can, you have nothing to be ashamed of. A defeat is not a disgrace.

I always wanted to be a basketball player. Nothing more, nothing less.

This feeling to be on the best team of the world is just indescribable.

I want to raise a family and have a couple of small Dirks running around. But it will not be easy to win my heart.

I wrote 'All You Could Ask For' to honor a friend, Heidi Armitage, who left us much too soon in 2009 at the age of 43.

In the matter of belief, we are all extreme conservatives.
