It is a physical game and especially in the playoffs it steps up to another degree. It is fun to be a part of those types of games. It is nothing personal.
Yeah, I broke it out. It's fun for us. The guys get hyped about that. That was kind of a backbreaker, so that was the airplane.
We've been joking with him because he's gotten extremely close in a bunch of games. He's in a great rhythm. He knows where shots are coming from, he knows where the assists are coming from, how to set the table. It's fun to watch.
It was the most fun shot I've ever hit. Just because it's we, as a unit, enjoying this moment together with the entire city of L.A.

You just try to take it one day at a time, ... You step on the basketball floor and just play. It's fun. I'm comfortable with it.
The party's just getting started. This is where the fun starts.
I can't relate to lazy people. We don't speak the same language. I don't understand you. I don't want to understand you.
These young guys are playing checkers. I'm out there playing chess.
It is fun for us as a team to get a win like this. It builds camaraderie and togetherness.
I was aggressive. I saw how they played defense and decided to come at them.
I thought we'd have our ups and downs being that it's a new system, trying to learn it. It's just moving the ball, spacing, timing, rhythm, things like that. I knew it would kind of be like a roller-coaster ride.
I think that from the start of this series we have just been playing extremely well and we are moving the ball around really well. We have just evolved into this from the start of the season, it has been process. We are just playing so well together.
It gives us confidence. It shows that our play is not a fluke. We move the ball consistently and play defense consistently. This bodes well for our confidence.
