He's shooting shots he knows he can shoot on post-ups on Shaq and drives from me. He's just in the rhythm. He's also going to the bucket and finishing strong. Hopefully, he and Antoine (Walker) continue to play the way they have and we'll be pretty good offensively throughout the playoffs.
I've talked to him a couple of times. It has always been short, but it's always been good things. He always told me to keep playing the way I play and to continue to carry myself the way I carry myself. I heard through the grapevine that one of the players in the NBA he likes to watch is me. That's a great thing.
Last year my heart was racing up until the point I got picked. This year I was more confident that after a good year people would recognize me as an All-Star. But getting the nod and being a starter, that means so much.
Coach did put a challenge out there for me to be more active on defense, to be more aware. I know I'm a good defender. At times, I just take a rest. So he put a challenge on me not to take a rest.
Of course you're surprised after the season we had, a heartbeat away from the finals. But you know, Pat Riley seemed to change. He seemed to change from the year before when we were excited about our young team, and it did us good ? so I'm sure this will do us good also.
I put it on my shoulders at the end. I tried to make some plays. I went through a tough stretch but my teammates gave me confidence. ... At the end I was in a zone. I haven't been in one of those all year. It feels good to finally get one.
Every time we got it close, they just seemed to make the play. That is what good teams are supposed to do at home.
A little shot in the butt. It started kicking in after a couple minutes out there and I felt good after that.
It was good to see him back in the form of being Shaquille.
Just get it back to Miami. Out in Chicago I never play good. I have a long career ahead of me, so one day I will get one good game in.
The one thing I love about my signature performance shoe is that it's great on the court, but it also looks good with a pair of jeans.
This builds character for a team, ... I'm just happy it happened earlier in the season. Hopefully, this will make us better.
I told him he's got to hold his end of the bargain up. I'm tired of carrying us.
No question at all. They're exactly the same.
