That's the secret to success -- not worrying only about what's going to happen in the future, trying to work only on the stuff you can work on in the present.
We can't let losing stop us from believing. We're a work in progress.
You know hard work will eventually show up for our team and I think that's what the case is now.
We're not playing desperate. Like I've been preaching all season, hard work will eventually turn out and show up for our team.
I've got some work to do. We all do. We've got some time. This will be a good team. We've just got to get it all together.
I hated that perception that I didn't work hard, that I really don't love basketball.
Coming out of high school, I think it was good for me instead of going to college because college and the NBA are two different things. You can dominate on the college level, but the NBA is a whole different story. The dudes that do the best are the ones who work hard.
I'll joke all day, but once I get in the gym, I'm going to work hard.
We'll figure this out. We'll make it work in the future.
I can't wait. Everybody on this team is a hard worker, and I'm sure they're going to work to get better as individuals.

The season isn't over. Maybe a trade, maybe the All-Star break, something will jump-start us. Hopefully, the switch will come on.
We really needed a win tonight, especially on the road. My mind-set tonight was to really focus in on bearing down and getting a win. I wanted to do everything in my will to get that win tonight.
We can win games at home. But we seem to lose focus on the road.
