easy good knew passes throw
He just made it so easy for me to score. He's such a good passer. I kind of knew where his passes were going to be at any time. Not even looking, I knew where he was going to throw it and when he was going to throw it.
believe bricks forgot free line shot start throw
I haven't been to the free throw line in so long I forgot what it was like. I feel like I have to redo everything. Start all back over again. I couldn't believe how many bricks I shot at the free throw line.
Yeah, they try to get me to play. Because they want my money.
bracket gonna predict watch
I don't (fill a bracket out) because I'm gonna lose. I can't go on the numbers, because there's always upsets. I don't want to predict because I don't watch basketball. Or I don't watch enough of it.
legs rhythm starting thinking
My legs are starting to get back under me. I'm getting my rhythm back and I'm just going out there to play. Not really thinking about it.
believe definitely
They definitely believe in getting up and down the court.
decided hard lightly team
We didn't take them lightly at all. A team like that has nothing to lose, so we decided to come out and play hard in the beginning.
player east dominant
I can be one of the dominant players, maybe the dominant player, in the East.
play focus trying
I used to get down on myself a lot if I missed a shot, and it would just break my focus. But now I stay mentally tough and try to just forget about that play and keep on going.
warrior trying court
I can't be someone I'm not. I try to be a warrior on the court, but where I come from, being macho doesn't get you anywhere.
play play-hard who-i-am
I just go and play hard. That's who I am.
almost compete gets guys hard mental team won
When you are a young team, it is hard to compete with a team that has won one championship and almost won another. It's a mental thing. It gets into your head, because you know what those guys have done.
definitely everybody finals fired last lost prove wanting
I think there's a lot on this game. With how we lost in the Finals last year, we're definitely going to be fired up wanting to get a win. We also want to prove to everybody that we belong.
lose motivated remember rest
I was a little more motivated for the win. It was my first finals. To lose like we did, I'm going to remember it for the rest of my life.
