I am very happy to be here in the NBA.
We still have a lot of games left, but we're happy about that.
We need to go up to Milwaukee and play a team that's playing very well... and try to come out with a win. It's not a perfect season, and this builds character for a team. I'm just happy it happened earlier in the season. Hopefully this will make us better.

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.
Anytime you get a win you're happy with it and you try to learn from it.
I think it's what he wants. He knows he's an important option on offense and knows what we expect. I'm sure he doesn't think we've been harsh about it.
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.
Last year, he just lost weight. And I think at the end of the year that kind of took a toll on him because he didn't have that strength that he used to, to fall back on. ... Shaq is motivated to do something better and help the team.
You all (the media) might have made him mad. I think you all lit a fire under him. He's been playing well the last couple of games. He continued to do it today.
We had a long talk (Monday) about a lot of different things. I know for this team to go to the next level I have to make plays for others.
Our continuity is still good. Of course, there was a little rust and we had a lot of anxiousness. But guys played with a lot of energy.
Maybe I got hurt for a reason - to bring these guys here and we all celebrate together over on Biscayne Bay one day,
I was like, 'Hey, Carmelo Anthony should be playing too.' . . . I think I could have helped.
