We have the toughest team in the league. But we've got the mind-set we can win.
I will definitely play in the world championships. We will just go trying to take teams out as the underdogs, and then we will be happy.
We've got to win. These are our rivals, New Jersey, Chicago and Philly.
We'd rather get five and get Cleveland, but it's going to be a tough game.
We're definitely positive. To win a few games obviously would be nice. We'd like to win the series, but being realistic, they're the No. 1 seed. We're just going to try to take a game or two, and on any day, you never know what can happen.
That's the sort of thing that I have spoken to him about as a friend - I've told him you've got to bulk up,
That's the NBA life for you. You've got no excuses not to be ready - get the smell off your body, ice on your knees and get back into it.
I'd set good screens, get him open, and that's how I would get open. We'd be tough. Hopefully, they take me. I'd be an asset for them.
I caught up with a lot of family. I didn't do much in Croatia. Then I went back to Australia and tried to get back on the weights. It wasn't a circus like it was here before the draft.
I'd rather have this win and not score much. Personal accolades at this time of the year don't really matter.
