The whole series was kind of an embarrassing moment. They didn't just beat us by two or three points in the games they won. They beat us by, like, 20. That's embarrassing.
We have seven games on the road coming up. If we can win at least five of those games on this trip, it will define us as a team.
That's probably one of the best games I've played in. That's a good memory.
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.
These close games that we're losing, the teams are not beating us. We're kind of beating ourselves.
The new guys bring energy, intensity and emotion. The last couple games, they showed what they can bring to the team.
I want to win the game. I dont worry about taking over the game unless I have to.
I know there's a lot of pressure, but I'm just going to go out and play my game.
Although you do look at the big picture, if you're dealing with the now, it can be kind of frustrating. You're losing basketball games, things not going the way you want it to go or should go, but at the same time we've just got to stay with it. Just stay positive, just stay focused, as a team, as a unit, because the ship easily can sink early.
It's easier for me to let the game just come to me.
No one is perfect. I know there is stuff that I need to work on, and not just one thing, but my game overall. Everything can get better.
I just don't want to get used to feeling this feeling, you know, losing basketball games.
I'm just playing my game and not worrying about who we're playing against. It's nice to come home and show the fans what we've been doing on the road. We've been playing well, especially the past eight games or so.
We're very confident. We have high expectations. Every time we play the Clippers, they are great at adjusting in the second half to what we are doing in the first half. They are also sending two or three people at me every time I touch the ball. That's a sign of respect. They try to mix it up. They play with my head a little.
