There were people laughing at us and joking on us out there on the court. I'm the kind of person, I want a little payback. So I'm hoping I'm here next year.
compete deal difficult found hard held moments monday morning ourselves playing position
There were moments when I found it difficult to compete and play with the ferocity I need. It's hard to play when you're not playing for anything. We put ourselves in this position and we have to deal with it. No one did it but us and we have to be held accountable for it. Monday morning quarterbacks are everywhere.
coach couple depending glad hold last leaning positive weeks
Coach has been leaning on me all season. He's been depending on me to do a lot and I haven't been able to hold up my end of the bargain. I'm just glad these last couple of weeks I've been able to do some positive things.

I may not agree with everything he does or says, but he's the coach; if he says it, I'll do it. Even if I think it's wrong or I don't think it will help, I have to do it because he gets paid to make the decisions.
fourth importance last minutes six
I really don't place a lot of importance on starting. I want to be out there the last six minutes of the fourth quarter.
america care
But, you know, this is America . . . I just don't really care for it.
came guys maybe seen shining situation sun winning
I came from a winning situation and I've seen it done the right way. I've seen the sun shining, so I know every day shouldn't be rainy. Maybe some of the other guys haven't seen the sun shining and they don't really know what they're missing.
