I get criticized for being me. I'm enjoying life, and people see it as me not being serious. Not taking the game seriously. You shouldn't hate somebody for being themselves, for enjoying themselves.
Some people only recognize me for that - ain't you the meme guy?
Players see shots not falling - that plays a role. That plays a major role in your confidence out there, too.
As a player, you model yourself after other players. Kobe takes the same approach as Michael Jordan. But I follow someone like Magic Johnson; he showed emotion, he smiled and jumped around, he was happy for his teammates. There needs to be more players like that.
I'm just a cool guy. It's just in my DNA.
I'm just all around cool guy that played basketball.
