fortunate games good kept point
When we first left, I think the most important thing was to come back and play well, like, 'You should have kept me around,' or 'You should have re-signed me.

He's done everything that you ask an All-Star to do. It was definitely disappointing for his peers not to recognize the job he's been doing, pretty much being one of the best guards, not only in the East, but in the NBA.
