That's free points. You're going to have to reward yourself for taking it hard to the lane and putting pressure on their big guys, putting them in foul trouble and making them pay.
The whole coaching staff talked about going to the line as much as possible, taking advantage of the mismatches and getting to the free-throw line. Whenever we play unselfish at home or on the road, we are a tough team to beat. When we play unselfish, we play better defense and we move the ball and play better offense.
They executed well, they made a bunch of tough shots. When you play a team like that, you look at them, and you can learn a lot.
We know what we have, we know what we do on the practice court, and we know what's in our hearts. We're really going to try hard.
Part of me wants to get out there, but the bigger part of me wants to see the other guys do well. If we're winning, that's all I care about.
That's what I think the move is for, for future references. If we have space to sign guys, that would be a plus.
That's what I'm trying to see, we're trying to wait for the smoke to clear, and see the product from all of this.
I know I'm a good person. I do my job. I know I'm a professional, and if I do the right things, people will respect me. No matter where it is, as long as I'm playing basketball, as long as I'm in the NBA, that's all that matters.
I'm nervous. I just hope they call my name. I don't talk much about it. I just wait.
I'm really happy, but I'm not satisfied. Even though I try to play to my maximum potential, I feel I can always do better. There's always mistakes to be made. I learn from my mistakes. I just want to keep going and get better every day.
I just think it's concentration. I spent a great deal of my time shooting free throws. As many jump shots as I take, I try to shoot as many free throws.
Close game, lost another. It's the same thing. You're not used to it. It's just, you get so close and the outcome stays the same. We just have to overcome a couple of things at the end of the game.
I'll be honest with you, it feels really good to come back from a tough situation, a sluggish first half and still capitalize down the stretch. We have been losing a lot of fights down the stretch.
I have to feel that nobody can stop me scoring, that nobody can keep me off the boards. Every person should feel that way. First of all, it gives me confidence, and when things get down, I still have that mental state that I missed shots, but he didn't stop me.
