I am who I am because of the people who I grew up with and where I'm from.
Our motto is just to play the whole 48 minutes. We are here to play it from start to finish. Things will go up and down. We will make runs and they will make runs. But we just keep playing.
We're doing some very exciting, bold things, pioneering content on mobile and for broadband, ... My vision is to say, as we take the strategy forward, we are doing it to deliver public remit. We're thinking less and less about C4 and more about the brand family.
It always feels good to win, it's always tough to lose.
If we win, I'm happy. The rest of it is just stuff.
I just hope to make a difference.
Get your education. The number of guys who are blessed to be in the league is so small compared to the number of high school players [who want to play in the league]. But one thing you can do is get your college education. If you are blessed enough to get a scholarship to play college basketball, make sure you get your college degree, too, then move on from there.
I'm attacking the basket more. Because I'm more comfortable on the line, that's an area I want to get to.
We are unselfish and we trust each other
I'm not better when I force shots. I'm going to take them as they come. They are really sagging in there, trying to take me out of the game. It's my job to find guys. I want to be aggressive and take my shots, but I can't force them.
The time when there is no one there to feel sorry for you or to cheer for you is when a player is made.
I'm still learning. Hopefully I can keep getting better, and not stop where I am now.
I enjoy jokes, smiling, and making people smile. I may be a little different, but that's OK, who wants to be normal anyway?
I'm not going anywhere. You can print that wherever you want to. I'm here and I'm a Spur for life.
