The shots were there for me tonight. It was a fun game to play because it went back and forth.
I was frustrated in the game because it seemed that teams were forcing me to work so hard for shots coming off the perimeter, ... It got to a point where we started off having to take too many long shots, too many tough shots.
We forced them to take shots on the perimeter. We kind of took what they were trying to do away from them.
It seemed as though it bounced the right number of times to where they really couldn't get a shot off.
We shot ourselves in the foot. I thought we were so close to busting open, but we gave it away.
I'll give it to him. He had a heck of a night making shots with a hand in his face.
I just had to get a shot off. Eddie Jones is a great defender. It went in our favor because it took a lot of seconds off the clock.
God could care less whether I can shoot a jump shot.
I'm always ready to step up and take that shot.
He (Butler) turned it on and made some shots and I was just trying to stay with him. I tried to keep him away from the ball and he still made some tough shots.
People decide if they want to be led, they'll be led. If they decide they don't want to be part of the system, they'll buck it.
Everything has been very amicable. There just hasn't been any movement, and movement is me signing a contract.
Everything's blurry on the right side. The light getting in it aggravates it.
The teams that do the best job of putting personal agendas aside are the successful teams. It's not easy. That's why it's hard being a good teammate, but everyone has that choice.
