I want to continue to take steps forward.

Anytime a change is made in the middle of the season, you're going to be shocked, especially with Stan Van Gundy. I've got a tremendous amount of respect for him. To step down the way he did, what can you say about that? ... We were shocked, but at the same time, we've got a game today.
This is a dream come true, to have a brand built somewhat around you. I love that. We don't have a lot of guys, but I think we all look at it as opportunity. It's a very big step for me and my career.
