My goal is to be able to play wherever my team needs me.
I know that sacrifices have to be made to play with good teams.
If you want to win, you have to sacrifice and do what makes the team work most efficiently.
We didnt come out with any energy. We know were not good enough to let the game come to us. We have to come with high energy, play hard team basketball and do everything the right way. Coming into the season, we all knew we didnt have too much room for error.
The stereotype of a leader is one who talks and peps people up and things like that, but in actuality you have to listen to your teammates.
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.
He's a successful GM. He has a good rep. You can see his work right now. It's real good to know, just to have somebody come in who has pretty good credentials.
It's good to have a home-like atmosphere away from home.
I think this team has a good chemistry going for it right now. In the long run, it's going to be us. We understand that. We can just play with each other and not worry about anything, just worry about winning.
It's very good motivation because that kind of brings us together,
They play pretty good without Iverson. They have a lot of guys who really step up to the plate and accept that challenge without him. It's still really a good team without him.
Sometimes when I have a 1-on-1 advantage and teams don't do a good job of either doubling or clogging the paint, that works to my advantage.
It's been a pretty consistent shot for me. I got a good look, it just went a little long. It felt good; I've just got to move on and keep going.
I haven't won on my birthday since college, so it's good to play hard and get a win by double figures.
