character game good great wish
It's great to see myself in a videogame, ... I just wish my character was really this good when the game comes out.
experience great meeting okay sharing talking
It's great just meeting these kids, talking to them, sharing the experience with them. I think it makes them feel like it's okay to have this, it's not the end of the world.
early except four guys played quarters tone tried won
I tried to come out hard, set the tone early and the guys got the win. We played all four quarters and we won every quarter except the third, which we tied.
attacking ball knew line points shooting
We knew we were in the bonus, so we were going to keep attacking them. We weren't shooting the ball well, so we were going to try to get to the free-throw line and get points from there and that's what we did.
giving lost points
We should never have been in that position, giving up 39 points in the first quarter, and right there is where we lost the game,
comments drafted dreamed hear negative
It hurt, ... It was my big day, you know. Getting drafted was something I'd dreamed about. To hear all those negative comments was tough.
game learned lessons mental
There were a lot of lessons I learned out there today. We're out of the playoffs, we were down by 30, and you just have to keep playing. It was a mental game today. It was really hard. It was frustrating, but you just have to keep going.
defensive side speed
Just the speed of the game, and also on the defensive side as well. It's not the same as in college. A lot of things are different, but I'm learning. I'm like a sponge, I'm absorbing everything.
glad guys screen wide
I went to set the screen and two guys were on Jose. I was wide open. I was a little surprised. I'm glad to get it.
He's done. He shouldn't even be out there.
along group special
If it was up to me, I'd keep the same team, because I feel we've got something special with this group of guys. We all get along really well, the locker-room is unbelievable.

I actually felt like I was in a video game, out there, no pressure at all.

I actually felt like I was in a video game. I was out there (feeling) no pressure at all.
guard nba typical
He was just saying, 'Give me the ball. I'm going to take this rookie. He can't guard me,' ... You know, typical NBA stuff.
