View Photo »This is what I do ... When opportunities like that present themselves, I’m confident in my abilities to step up and make the right play, whether it’s making a shot or making a read to create something for someone else.
Derek Fisher has asked for all the Lakers to be in Los Angeles on Dec. 3 to be physically present for the players vote
I don't think that's ever the plan (for me to shoot the last shot)
The Lakers have potential to be this year's Philadelphia Eagles more than anybody right now ... Two of their guys (Kobe Bryant and Derek Fisher) are getting long in the tooth. Kobe has been injured more often than not. With a shorter season, you don't know if it will help or hurt them. If a significant ...
I am never the first option, but my teammates trust me
I’m not a volume shooter and I donât get a lot of shots ... I just try to stay ready and prepared to help my team. … I’m just glad I was able to help the team win.
Kobe demands a lot of attention and he trusted me to make the right play
You just have to try and block out as much as possible the way the overall game is flowing and really try and zone in on your impact on the game
Our fans and the support from the people and (their) patience through a large part of this process – that's where a lot of this credit goes to
The efforts that have been made have been largely with them in mind.
For myself, it's great to be a part of this particular moment, in terms of giving our fans what it is that they so badly wanted and want to see
I think coming out of today, obviously, because of the calendar, we can't come out of here feeling as though training camps and the season is going to start on time at this point
My gut tells me that there's no way Commissioner Stern and the NBA would damage their business by making us miss a whole season
We just feel that a little bit less — or a lot less — of talking outside of the room and more talking inside of the room is better for everyone
The person that spent the least amount of time in the room has no ability to make that statement
We can't talk about one part in a vacuum because it impacts the entire system, so we haven't been, at this point, inclined to say that's a huge thing, because without other things it doesn't mean much.
We were never on strike, we were locked out
With that being said, there's a lot of work left to do. Attorneys and lawyers will handle a lot of the heavy lifting
The most important key is our fans and the support from the people and the patience through a large part of this process. That's who a lot of this credit goes to ... The efforts that have been made have been largely with them in mind.
For myself, it's great to be a part of this particular moment in terms of giving our fans what they wanted and wanted to see
For myself, as a represented for a lot of the players, ... the most important, key thing here is our fans and the support from the people and the patience through a large part of the process ... That’s where a large part of the credit goes to.
For myself as a representative for a lot of players, the most important key here that our fans and the support of the people ... It's great to be a part of this particular moment in terms of getting our fans what it is that they've so badly wanted and want to see.

For myself, as a representative of our players, the most important thing here is that our fans and the support from the people ... The efforts that have been made are largely with them in mind.
