Reggie is a (great) block-out guy and Ruben will go down there and battle. Sometimes, the ball just seems to fall right in my hands.
This one hurts worse than the other two. We have issues. I saw guys who did not want to be here and play in this game. We did not play playoff basketball in this series.
At the end of the day, you want to be always the one that's one step ahead of everybody, and when it comes to hip-hop, culture and art, you want to be that signature guy.
I got a picture [tattoo] of Mohammed Ali on my side with one of his quotes. That's my guy. I look up to him. I'm like his number one fan.
I'm a classical type of guy. Whatever's out at that point in time, I like it. I just put my own twist on it, and we go from there.
You've got a lot of guys who are playing just as well as I am and deserve it.
We let three slip away. That's over. That's behind us. We know this is a new year. New goals. New attitudes.
We knew they were going to make a run, we weren't going to be able to keep a (big) lead on them. They made a run, they made a big run in the third, but we kept our composure.
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 ran pretty well (Monday night). I don't think we ran as well as we wanted to. But we ran pretty well.
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.
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.
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.
