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.
We had a great preseason. But it's over with.
We knew they were going to make a run but we kept our composure and finished off the game. It was a great game out there.
We still got a great chance to make this road trip real special. Finish a road trip like this 5-2 is a real good road trip for us.
I don?t regret coming to college. I had a fun year. I had a great year on the court, and off the court at school.
It's a wonderful feeling. You know, this is another positive thing I can put on my resume. It's a great feeling coming out here on my home court and getting MVP of the Rookie-sophomore Game.
It's a great honor. It's a team thing. The team should have gotten Player of the Month.
That's something he does every night. They've got shooters out there who can knock down open shots, and he put them in a great position to hit shots.
Who wouldn't want to go back home to play?
Of course I want to take the last shot, let's be quite frank: I've been doing for nine years already, and I've made a ton of them.
With the way everything's going now and the way that technology is going, you can do a lot of things with a lot of different new materials.
The NBA's a Fortune 500 company. That's how you look at it. And all the other Fortune 500 companies out there in the world, you don't see their CEOs and COOs going to work with white tees and baggy clothes and stuff like that. So I have to take that same approach.
People look at me like I'm on my way out of the game. I'm just getting started.
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.
