When I come home, I'm not a basketball player, but "dad". While everyone sees me as an NBA player, to my boys, I'm just "dad" and that's very important.
For home games, I bring my clothes to the arena. I bring two different outfits that I can pick after the game. Road game, I got to wear what I walk in with.
We gave ourselves a chance tonight. We were on our home floor, but they made the plays.
There are a lot of good teams coming into our house, but it is our home and we need to defend our home.
When another team is at home and they've got that rhythm going at the end you never know what can happen.
Coach told us to come in and play well on our home floor. Teams that you're supposed to beat, you've got to beat them. That's what we did tonight. At the same time, having a big lead and guys having the opportunity to rest was big also.
The main thing is to close games out when we have them. You don't want to give a team like the Bulls that are going to continue to fight confidence, especially at home at the end of games like we did the last two.
We have to come back tomorrow. We're a team that never quits, we always fight.
This was an exciting game from beginning to end. Both teams were getting out running and scoring at will.
The playoffs are a different mindset and a different season. Our main goal is to go in healthy and we'll be alright.
We thought Nash was going to knock that down right away.
We're not really looking at teams' records. We just want to come in and get better and we can't relax. This is the NBA.
There is only a relationship between music and sports because all athletes want to be rappers and all rappers want to be athletes.
When I'm designing I try to think about what I like to see on other people.
