The American attitude is 'We're the best'. That's why the NBA guys who come from other countries, the Europeans, all sort of stick together away from the game.

Winning the Rookie of the Year would be nice but making the playoffs would be even nicer for me.

We have a high ceiling. We're still young. We're still learning coach's system and we're still learning how to play hard every night. I think that's been a bad habit of ours the last few years. It's a habit that's hard to shake, too. I think if we keep pushing, we'll be alright this season.

I'm not a fan of baseball really.

Concentrate on defense because the offense will come.
