That was real good. That was probably the best thing that happened (Saturday). Seeing the kid.
That was a good block, good defense. He was doing that all night. Actually, he's been doing that all year.
Last year I showed people a little of what I can do. I didn't give them the whole shebang.
That boy got eyes on the front and back and both sides of his head. He got eyes everywhere. He's always playing hard. Only thing I like about him, he looks for his teammates first, then he goes out there. He's not a selfish player. I can play with somebody like that all year long, maybe in the future we can get him out here in Denver.
My team needed me out there to get some things done. At halftime I just told them it's time for me to wake up and just go out there and win the game.
I was trying to set a screen for Andre Miller and just get open. I saw the double team coming and I just tried to beat it and go fast to the basket.
I saw the double team coming, I tried to beat it and go faster.
I saw a double (team) coming and I just tried to beat it. I just had to go fast.
Our team needed me out there to get some things done on the offensive end and the defensive end. At halftime, I just told (the team) it's time for me to wake up.
It is getting old. I hope we have everybody out there as soon as possible. Playing with a 6-4 lineup is tough.
I was edgy my first two games just to get out there and start my career. You saw me settle down more than I did the first two games.
I feel like it's a fresh start for me. I'm feeling better than I ever felt. I feel better than even in high school or college.
I can't even remember. To me, it's just going to be like practice. . . . I don't even look at it as trying out.
For two days, George (Karl) has been constantly stressing that this is a team that we'll be playing against. We kind of wanted to make a statement that if we play you in the playoffs, this is what you're going to see.
