Way to rock lil' homie. Much Love.
It is much easier to be the hunter than the hunted. When you are the one not expected to do anything, you play better.
George said I needed to start giving him something special,
I'm going to try to help Jason as much as possible. He has never had a guy like me to guide him. When I come into camp, I'm going to try to help him. I'm not going to try to beat him up or beat him down.
I hope we've gotten past that sense of lackadaisical play.
I like him the way he is now. I think he just wanted to get in shape to show people he can do that. Shaq is Shaq when he's big and when he can muscle people around. I think people thought they could muscle him around. He didn't feel comfortable with that. ... It'll be a big difference.
They've got a legit team. You can't go in there and say it's a win. You've got to take those guys seriously now.
