I don't feel too much pressure. I never have. I don't believe in pressure.
I was feeling pretty good. Once (the shot clock) makes it down to 10 seconds, I believe I can take my man one-on-one.
There's no reason to play in the NBA if you don't believe you can win it all.
If I didn't believe in this team and this organization and the direction that we're headed, I wouldn't have signed the extension.
Commitment is a big part of what I am and what I believe. How committed are you to winning? How committed are you to being a good friend? To being trustworthy? To being successful? How committed are you to being a good father, a good teammate, a good role model? There's that moment every morning when you look in the mirror: Are you committed, or are you not?
Individual accolades come when your team is successful. It showed (Sunday).
I know that hard fouls are going to happen. They've been reading up on the clippings about me leading the league in 'and-ones', so they did a good job of trying to foul me before I got the ball up. That's just playoff basketball. I've always said that I could take those hits. All in all, the Wizards did a great job of coming in here and beating us.
I knew this was going to be a great game. We just made the best plays at the end of the game.
I knew I had to be aggressive. This was an important game. What's awesome is that we won the season series and have done a great job in our division.
It's sprained pretty good, but nothing serious. You never really know until the next day, but I've had them before, and this is nothing that bad.
Eight years is a long time. To experience that in his first year and then wait another eight years to get back, it's tough for him. You have to feel excited for him. It's awesome.
The atmosphere was unbelievable. This must be what playoff basketball is all about.
The atmosphere and the fans were unbelievable. With the towels waving and the excitement, it was easy to keep my energy high, even though I've been battling a cold. Yeah, the crowd was excellent.
It was great to be out there with a good friend.
