I don't want to get married unless they change the marriage laws. You should have to sign a marriage contract for no more than five years, with an option to opt out.
— Gilbert Arenas
Chauncey Billups is really not a scoring guard.
Drama sells.
We're humans. We live on land. Sharks live in water. So if you're swimming in the water and a shark bites you, that's called trespassing. That is called trespassing. That is not a shark attack.
You can't start anything and not trust nobody. You trust everybody until they do something wrong.
My best moment in the league came when I scored my first bucket.
At the end of the day, you have 82 games. You're going to win some division games, and you're going to lose some division games.
You don't want to be too uptight about anything. Especially your job.
I check out my MySpace. I'll go on sites to see what's funny on YouTube.
I'm my own man.
How can I tell somebody, 'Don't shoot that shot' when I'm out there chunking 'em?
When people think about me, that's all they think: 'He's crazy. He's psycho. He's this.' No, that was just my blog; that was Agent Zero; that was my persona that I was putting out there. And eventually, that all caught up with me.
I have so much entertainment going on in my house that I don't need to go out.
That's what I was known for: I was a gym rat.
When you blink, you're on the back end of your career.
I think I'm one of the rare people out there who still cares about the game of basketball.
I always go against the odds.
People call me all kinds of things, I guess, because I'm a little different. I'm never what they expect.
I'm a shooter. You don't lose your shooting touch.
I have the mind-set that a guard can't stick me. So I watch the bigs and see how they like to play. If you're a shot blocker, then I jump into you. If you take charges, then I pull up for the midrange.
Basketball is basketball. I don't think people realize that. No matter what city, overseas, D-league, park league - I just want to play.
I was in honors classes in high school. I'd get an A on every test, but I had a 1.9 grade point average. The teacher would say, 'You didn't do your homework.' I'd say, 'But isn't the homework supposed to be the lead-up to the test?'
I got three 'Tiger Woods' games for my Xbox just in case one gets scratched.
I was an only child.
I really don't want to feel like an adult.
I always have something going on.
Most kids would be like, 'My dad's never around.' But I saw it as a positive. He was out there working to provide for me.
I look at my elders as the leaders.
I don't think anyone's worth $100 million if Michael Jordan wasn't, but hey, that's what Abe Pollin thought I was worth, and if someone puts $100 million in front of you, you're gonna take it, too.
I want politicians coming to me and asking me for advice.
If we lost a game, and I thought I played bad, I'm staying in the gym to keep shooting. That's what I did.
I feel like most ex-NBA players don't embrace the team they played for.
I can interact with anybody, but I'm shy.
If you like Five Guys burgers, and you're in California, I was one of the people who helped bring it here.
Fans love me because I connect with them. No other superstar can do that.
I'm a scorer. I score in volumes.
I'm mentally strong.
I always try to find something funny in any situation.
When I was little, I looked in the mirror and held the Bible in my hand - that's how I talked to God. I never just asked for stuff. The way I saw it, if you give Him something, you get something.
If you're having a bad day, or you're having a bad career, go to Manila. They'll bring your spirits up.
As happy as I am off the floor, on the floor I'm the opposite. I don't take any crap.
Some people would rather not go to arenas; they'd rather just sit at home and watch the game at home or play on the computer.
When I went through my life, I was like, 'I sit around and play video games all day. Nobody wants to hear about this.'
If you have a kid that loves basketball - that eats, sleeps, drinks, and thinks basketball, and all he knows is basketball - and he gets hurt, and he's your franchise player, you need to hold him back from himself.
I'm a goof. C'mon, everyone knows that.
Some people just can't forgive. And that's just the way life is. You know, I can't forgive some things, either.
When I look back on my career, from the hard work I put in, I got everything I deserved.
John Wall - me and him talk a lot.
I lived in Washington longer than I have lived anywhere else, so it's considered home, even though I moved back to California.
I can lack communication with people. I shy away from everybody. I always want to be alone.
