I think it's (the national team selection) a little bigger. Having a chance to be a part of the world's elite as opposed to the league's, I think it's a little more special.

It is insignificant if you don't win the game.
He's a threat, he can play. His success has helped us as a team. He's been getting in the paint, he's been getting guys a lot of wide-open shots and he's been getting easy buckets. He can shoot the three and he doesn't take many bad shots, so when you have a point guard who can do all those things and create on the offensive side you can do a lot of things.
He's a successful GM. He has a good rep. You can see his work right now. It's real good to know, just to have somebody come in who has pretty good credentials.
Hopefully, this is the last year I won't be busy at this time of year.
Part of me wants to get out there, but the bigger part of me wants to see the other guys do well. If we're winning, that's all I care about.
I always keep my ear to the street and my eyes on the television.
(My teammates) were making fun of me, saying I took the night off, I was fouling on purpose. But the outcome is we won the game, a lot of the guys played well, and this will bring a lot of confidence for other guys.
I just think it's concentration. I spent a great deal of my time shooting free throws. As many jump shots as I take, I try to shoot as many free throws.
I just hope he wants to come in and contribute to the best of his ability. I hope he buys into what we're trying to do here and what we're trying to do with this season.
Close game, lost another. It's the same thing. You're not used to it. It's just, you get so close and the outcome stays the same. We just have to overcome a couple of things at the end of the game.
It's really special. When I was in the second grade, I watched the Dream Team ? it was a special time for me.
It's real important but I don't put too much pressure on myself.
