I am happy that we fought. But when you fight, that doesn't mean you are going to win the game. I feel like I'm starting to get my rhythm now.
It was great playing with Steve because he complements your game. He's out there getting rebounds, assists and steals. He fills up the stat sheet.
I watched a couple of games and it was just a great, great day for the NBA.
Our record doesn't reflect the kind of team that we have right now. We're playing really well, we're bonding and we're sharing the ball.
I wish we had a couple of weeks or maybe even three weeks left, because we'd be in the running to make a serious run in the playoffs. We're a heck of a team. We were down and out of it with 15 games to play and we kept playing. That says a lot about the guys on this team.
I feel like I'm starting to get my rhythm now.
It was unbelievable. It's scary because he's only going to get better.
Every game, the team gets better. Everybody's getting better, individually and collectively.
Youth Interlock is the A.A.U. program that brought me up. Being as though I made it, I feel its very important to give back to the community. Im have no problem putting my name on such a great event.
Steve told me to keep shooting and he's the team leader. When he tells you to keep shooting, you keep shooting. I know he's going to keep shooting, so if he tells me to, why not?
I made some free throws down the stretch. However I missed some earlier and I had to redeem myself. We are not through yet, we are only five back with 11 to go.
People can talk about playoffs, playoffs, but we're just trying to get better. If we don't make the playoffs and just carry it onto next season, this is good.
We just beat the best teams in the league. If we get the opportunity to face someone in a series, it should be fun to watch.
We came out with a lot of intensity, and we had to because they knew we played last night. We knew they were going to come out and throw a big first punch. We survived that and threw some of our own.
