My guys look for me to step up in that magnitude and I take the challenge every time. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, but you've got to have a guy that will take those shots and deal with the consequences.

If it ain't rough, it ain't right

I've always believed in my abilities. Nobody ever gave me anything in life. I had to work for everything I got. It may have gotten really rocky for a while, but I persevered, because I'm not afraid of failing.

It's all about guts. I've had so many ups and downs, I'm not scared of being down.

I'm never nervous. Not in high school, not in college. That's just the way I am.

I'm fully aware that every time I do anything, good or bad, somebody's watching.

I get a lot more confidence winning games playing defense than winning the run-and-gun game.
