careers enjoy extra guys high learned life looked nba rare
When I got to the league, I learned and looked up to guys who had long-lasting careers because they didn't partake in alcohol. I'd say it's very rare (for an NBA player), but I'm already high on life and I enjoy living, so I don't need any extra additives.
rather
If you're going to boo, then boo. Don't be fair-weather fans. I'd rather not be applauded anymore.
fully glad happen knew respect time
The whole time I said that I was innocent. I knew there was an investigation that had to happen and I respect that process. I was fully cooperative and I'm just glad it's over.
brown confidence flip fond freedom guys larry looking offense playing wants wide
The offense is wide open. (Former coach) Larry Brown wasn't too fond of the 3-point shot. Flip wants his guys to do what they do best. They have a lot of freedom out there. They are playing with a lot of confidence and not looking over their shoulders.

He understands that being a great player comes down to how you can help your team win games. That's what his focus is right now. He's not worried about MVP or anything like that. He's just trying to help his team win games.

We've been like that all season long ? very inconsistent.
add best came crowd fans favor five harlem hopefully knowing missed pull shooting shots swing tricks
When I first came to Cleveland, everyone said I would add shooting to the mix. I missed my first five shots (Thursday), so I had to get the crowd into it the best way I can. So I had to pull out my Harlem Globetrotters tricks and hopefully I can swing the fans back in my favor knowing that I can make shots.
