You can't be afraid to get back up and try again, and you really can't do that unless you acknowledge the failure.
I think we all have our own different styles. [James] LeBron likes to be comfortable - he's going to be more comfortable over everything else. Dwyane [Wade Jr.] likes really stylish stuff. If you bring something questionable he'll try it.
I don't really know what depression is, I don't think I've felt it. I probably have. Things aren't the same when you're losing. You're not happy. That can happen. But I try to keep them separate as much as possible.
I'm just trying to be the best player that I can be.
That's what I'm trying to see, we're trying to wait for the smoke to clear, and see the product from all of this.
I just appreciate the battle that we had. I was trying to stop him, he was trying to stop me, and all in all it was just a great competition.
I'm sure that's what they're trying to do, they're trying to do something. All I can do is hope and pray and give my little two cents to the guys upstairs and they're going to make their decision.
With a smaller guy, I should have taken him to the post. I should have given up the ball and cut to the post. I was just too busy trying to make a play that I shouldn't have. I should have been a little smarter.
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.
I want to bring that childlike approach every night - just go out there and have fun. I want to play like a kid, for fun but with intensity. Play to win.
I'm my own biggest critic, and the only way I'm going to improve is to see what I was doing wrong.
Everyone talks about success, but what happens before? There's always something you have to overcome.
Life is not going to be sweet all the time.
Failure either breaks people or it makes them succeed.
