I believe that whatever we have, regardless of a trade being done or not, I feel we have a shot. I've just got to believe that we're going to be all right. I've got to just play basketball.
We had a lot to do with Randy being fired. If we were to do a lot better, then it probably wouldn't have happened.
If that many people recognize how hard I go every night and what I put into my game, to make myself and my team better, it means a lot to mean. I'm fortunate; I'm blessed to be in the situation that I'm in right now.
Life is short. Im gonna be happy with mine.
You know, I've always told him (Larry Brown) I wanted the relationship that Michael Jackson... Michael Jordan, I'm sorry. ... I wanted the same relationship with him like Phil Jackson and Michael Jordan had.
The basket looked like an ocean, and I was just throwing rocks in.
He's helped me do so much in my career, helped me be the player that I am. If there's no Larry Brown, then there's no MVP, Allen Iverson.
When you lose, there is a whole bunch of room for negativity and I don't feed into this stuff and I do not do any talking. I don't run my mouth.
How the hell can I make my teammates better by practicing?!
I went through what I went through because God said go through it
To fight like we fought the majority of the game and then for that to happen to us with 4.9 seconds on the clock is just devastating.
When you win, everything is everything. But when you lose, it's all about Allen Iverson and Larry Brown. When we win, I know that I get the praise and Larry Brown gets the praise, but when we lose, it's on me and Larry Brown. That's something that I have to learn to accept and deal with.
We knew we were going to be short-handed, being that Chris wasn't playing, and other guys stepped up and played big for us.
We're not eliminated till we're eliminated. I just feel good about not being eliminated. We get to live another day.
