Just whipping that ball around and sharing, guys knocking down threes. Team play is the most important thing to me. I'm not really averaging a lot of points. But at the same time, we're winning, I'm happy, my assists are up. It's fun when we share the ball and make the extra pass.
He's been playing well for us, carrying us throughout the whole game. Guys are inspired by that, want to sacrifice themselves to get him shots and help out and play at the level that he's playing at.
He made a good move, but I made a few good ones myself.
My personal expectation is that I definitely want to finish as the best point guard in the NBA, and that translates into us winning, ... If I'm the best point guard in the NBA, it means that we're winning and we're a playoff contending team. It's just motivation for me to know that a lot of people have me low on the totem pole right now. I'm just trying to prove them wrong.
He was hot and has been hot for a while. It is good for us that he is playing at the level he is playing at and he keeps us in a lot of ballgames.
We came out like gangbusters, ... It's going to be exciting. You can see it.
We finally started to move the ball and we found a way to exploit them at the offensive end, but in the fourth quarter, we got away from it.
That's the type of energy we need. It's good to see guys getting an opportunity.... Last year when I came (to the Warriors via a Feb. 24 trade), our bench was so critical. The energy they brought was fun and exciting. That's what we were missing.
Caron came out with great energy and he was unstoppable tonight. We couldn't stop him down low. We didn't have an answer for him.
These kids have already passed the class. They've taken the finals. Basically they're doing busy work.
The damage to the city from Hurricane Katrina is irreplaceable. Thousands of people are homeless. We all know someone who needs help.
a good person, and he's young, which means he is immature.
