You have to fall in love with the process of becoming great.

[When] I was young and I listened to everything - I took everything to heart. I didn't really realize how much people want to talk badly about you when you're down, or kick you when you're down. As basketball players, people think everybody's ultra-confident. But that's not the case.

I'm thankful for some of bad experiences I've had. They helped me with the way I view people and see them for who they really are.

Teams want me to do something stupid. You want to get to the point where nothing affects you, where you control them.

It seemed like we were losing every night for a different reason. Now we're winning a different way every time. It's a great feeling.

This has been a dream for me.

After you have a big game, you can't just say, 'That's it, I've arrived,' by any means. I'm always pushing it to be better. You always want to be better than you are, no matter what. I think that's important.
