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 think we just came together seeing we were down. We couldn't lose our first game after the (All-Star) break so we had to focus in and we did a good job of that.
I think it was a little bit unfair for me because I didn't know what was going on. For (Brown) to come out and say what he said, he could have at least come to me first.
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.
Just trying to support him in any way we can.
(Karl) just told us management had to make a decision.
I talk to Julius every day. He's just got to be patient. George is going to get on him a lot, but it's for the best. He only wants him to get better. I try to talk to him and tell him to fight through it.
I take this as motivation. It's nothing to be upset about. I can't take away and nobody else can take away what I've done this season.
Last year I showed people a little of what I can do. I didn't give them the whole shebang.
We match up with them pretty good, despite how the record turned out when we played them throughout the season. I look forward to playing the Clippers. Playoff basketball is a lot of excitement. It's going to be fun, especially in L.A.
Regardless of who they sent at me, I was going to the hole. We won the game, that's the only thing I'm happy about.
Regardless of who it was, I was going to the hole. They weren't going to stop me that time. I was either going to get a foul or a dunk.
