A lot of people have high expectations. I'm just going to do the best I can.
That was definitely one of our best quarters, especially passing the ball. We shared the ball well, made the extra pass. Guys got easy shots and they just really couldn't defend it.
It was tough because we tried to play good D. Allen Iverson is definitely one of the best players. He's the toughest person I've ever had to guard.
I just tried to go out there and contain him, ... It was my job today -- it was my job the last two games -- to shut down the other team's best perimeter player. I just took that as a challenge.
I'm looking forward to playing with those guys, ... Carlos Boozer, Andrei Kirilenko are definitely two great players in this league and I definitely feel they'll enjoy playing with me. I'm best when I'm out there making plays for people and making my teammates better and make the game just easier for them.
I'm just honored to play for the Jazz and to play after John Stockton, to wear the same jersey he wore and be on the same floor he was on because he's one of the best players of all-time, one of the best point guards of all- time,
I believe I can adapt to anything,
As a parent with a child with autism, its been really tough to experience your child having autism.
Anthony Davis is cool.
I actually don't play any new video games except 'Call of Duty.' I'm addicted to 'Call of Duty.' It's the only game I need.
I think my putting could be better, my short game.
I've got a lot of favorite golfers.
My mother was a huge Steelers fan, so they were my team growing up.
How shall not man, whose nature stands bound up with forces vast, innate with strength, reveal his life In mould of holiest cast. His law is action: gates of power stand open in his view; a restless soul, a holy zeal, shall give him entrance through.
