It's a side of me that wants to make sure things are different this time around.
There is a side of me what wants to go, and there is a side of me that of course wants to win the gold. But there is a side of me that wants to make sure that things are different this time around.
I understand being the villain is what people like. People play to that. They want to know about the villain.
Before even Court Grip, I just wanted to be a part of a brand that I felt that listened to the athlete and really catered to the athlete, and gave us what we were looking for.
My will is to always be better and better and better. I've got the will to want to be the best.
I think everything happens as it's supposed to. I don't want to force anything. I want it to be so authentic that it's seamless.
I want to continue to take steps forward.
He's back. He's healthy. He's in better condition. He's hungry and wants the ball. He wants his team to be better.
Guys know what they need to do, but at the same time, I think they're still trying to understand what coach Riley wants them to do.
When a guy's 6-8, raises as high as he does and fades on his shot, you just try to do the best that you can to put a hand in his face. He made big shots for them.
We lost a great teammate. But I was also excited because the guys coming in can help us get to where we need to go, and that's to win a championship.
We don't want injuries, especially to our best player, ... We just hope he can come back real soon. He's a big guy and anytime he gets injured it's a lot of weight that goes down on his knee, ankle or whatever he hurt.
I've talked to him a couple of times. It has always been short, but it's always been good things. He always told me to keep playing the way I play and to continue to carry myself the way I carry myself. I heard through the grapevine that one of the players in the NBA he likes to watch is me. That's a great thing.
I've only scratched the surface of where I want to be in my career, ... And I know one thing, I haven't won anything yet so there's a lot more I can do there. But I'm going to continue to get better and do what I can to help my team be the best it can possibly be.
