The public's got it right, a lot of NBA stars are arrogant and like to spend lots of money and have lots of girlfriends and all that.
We come out soft. Every team that has come in here has probably run the first quarter.
We put ourselves in a position to make a move and then it collapses. It's never ending.
To be an owner of a team is something I dream of doing once I retire. Maybe even a soccer team and a basketball team. I can't see myself away from basketball if I retire at 30 or 40. That would be something to look at in the future.
The only way to beat Phoenix is hope to get them on a bad day and hope they miss shots.
We didn't want him to go off for 50, but he shot the ball so well coming out that it's was kind of hard to stop him. Other guys didn't get involved in the second half and that keyed us.
I remember when I was a kid having the Friday night games or the Saturday night games - a South East Melbourne versus Melbourne . . . they were huge, sold out, you couldn't get a ticket,
I think it's unbelievable. Getting your jersey retired, whether it be in high school, college, little league or whatever. It's an amazing achievement. It's something you'll remember forever.
He's doing OK. The first day, it was a little suspect, but it's OK.
Underdog isn't even the word to describe us. I don't know what we are. I mean, we're under-under-under-underdogs.
Some guys want to be the best, and that's how they show it. Me? I think being the best means winning games.
I think I have a lot of room for improvement. I just got to keep striving to work hard everyday and I think good things will happen. As long as we get the win it doesn't matter what I did.
We get down by 15 and we come back, but we exert so much energy and then we get down again. It's never-ending. It's been like that all season.
We had our backs against the wall. We showed great character. If we hadn't worked so hard in practice we would have lost that one by 30,
