It's the playoffs. I don't want to be worried about how I look.
It means a lot to be named a starter in my third year. To be named a starter, with my teammate, going to All-Star, I'm excited and happy and thank the fans for voting me in. I'm grateful for it.
It's kind of scary where he's at right now, at 21 years old and the way he dominates games. If I didn't know him, I would be surprised (by his development). He's one of the most level-headed guys I've ever met, and he has a will to be the best.
It's going to be hard to try to convince him anyway with a new baby on the way. That's something he has to decide.
It's good to go right into the All-Star break and relax a little bit and not be worried about where your team is.
It was nice. He was turning red when he put it over his mouth so I was worried about him a little bit.
No matter what, it's going to be sore. It's just a matter of how much pain you can take. I think I'll be fine.
No matter what, if it was going right or wrong, or guys were tired, we still got the job done. It's a beautiful thing to see guys come into their roles.
I want more, ... If you go out and search for those things, you got to be willing to take what comes with it. I'm going to be more busy this year than I have been in the past, but at the same time, I understand that none of those things come if wasn't for basketball.
I try to bounce back. That's all I try to do every time I have a bad game. I just put in the effort to try to make play for my teammates and make plays for myself. I did a decent job of bouncing back.
Anytime you get a win you're happy with it and you try to learn from it.
Anytime you lose a game it's painful. But when you get blown out, when you get embarrassed, especially on (national) TV, it's terrible. You put a hat on and walk out of here because no one has a reason to walk out of here with their head up.
At times it has been good. At times it has been average.
That means we are having a good year with a lot of games left. We want to continue to get better and stay healthy down the stretch.
