best drives frustrated gets hard hungry knows motivates people player plays reason ron stuff time understand wants
People don't understand that a lot of stuff he's done and the reason he plays so hard and is so hungry is because he wants to be great. I think a lot of time Ron gets frustrated because he knows he's better than what he's been playing. He wants to be the best player in the game. That's what drives him, that's what motivates him.

ball best blame defense figure flowing games great last moved played showing signs starting team together
The best way I can say it is we've played well, we've moved the ball and played great defense the last two games so we are showing signs that we are getting the chemistry. We can't put the blame on Ron. We can't say because Ron's not here, everything's flowing better. All we can say is we're starting to figure each other out, we're starting to play well together and we're starting to play like the team we know we can be.

It's no buzzer beater, but we did win the game. I'm glad I made it because I didn't make a shot all night.
career guys
I'm not disappointed. I got a championship out of it, ... A lot of guys play their whole career and don't get a championship.
aggressive plays score shots touches
I'm getting a lot more touches now. I just try to make plays for my team. I have to be more aggressive because I can score and I'll also get shots for other people. That's a big part of it.

I miss Reggie; he did a lot for this team, a lot for this organization, a lot for this city. But it's a new time, a new uniform and a new year,

I have no problem dressing up ... because I know I'm a nice-looking guy,
job replace seem trying
I'm not trying to replace Reggie because that would be something that's impossible, ... All I can do is come here and do my job and make it seem like he's not missed.
best heard hope none talked wish
I've heard of some trades, but none of them have probably been true. I've talked to Ron, but it really hasn't been on my mind. I wish him the best and hope for the best for this team.
