couple falling game opportunity thank truly
Everything is just falling into place. I do feel great. I feel good, thank God. I'm very, very appreciative of this opportunity that I have. And I play the game like I'm appreciative, because I truly am. I know a couple years ago, I didn't think I was going to be able to do this again.
games instead leg matter nba percent route talking win
It's a matter of when my leg is ready. We're talking about 16 games we've got to win (en route to the NBA championship), and I want to make the right decision. As we progress, I want to be 100 percent instead of 75 percent or 65 percent.
consistent game hope level minds playing turn
When we get our minds to playing defense, we can turn any game around. I hope we get to a more consistent level of play.
basketball player games
I've got to make some decisions just like any other player that has ever played this game, that eventually the clock stops, their basketball clock stops.
sports home games
I can still play this game at a high level; I've proven that. I want to be home. I want to be close to my family. I want to be close to my foundation and my business interests.
player games today
Kobe Bryant is the most talented player in the game today; he could do anything.
game missing respect
What I'll say is this: I respect his consistency. Never missing a game in 31 years, that's something.
aggressive attacking attention average bit draws effort game man open
Because he draws so much attention and is so aggressive attacking the basket, I'd like to see him find the open man just a little bit more. He could average 10 assists a game if he made a concerted effort to do that. But the man is only 24 years old.
feeling series wait
The series isn't over. I've just got to wait and see. I've got to keep progressing. As long as I keep progressing, I'll keep feeling positive.
expect
I've been around him 10 years with him. You never ever know what he's going to so you can expect anything.
collecting expect nine wins
I've been around for nine or 10 years with him. You never ever know what he's going to do, so you can expect anything. Hey, as long as we're collecting wins when he's doing it, that's all that counts.
continues
Every day that it continues to progress, I'm able to see improvement.
time
It is discouraging. But at the time same, I know it could have been worse.
foolish trying
We can't look at them. We've got to go out there and do it ourselves. We're foolish if we're trying to look at the referees.
