It's a luxury to play. I get to play basketball for a living. I'm a lucky guy and I'm thankful for everything I have and what I get to do. I realize how many people would give their left foot to just play one game in the NBA. This is the NBA!

Just listen to your instincts. Don't talk to someone or start a relationship out of pity.

You can't be afraid to get back up and try again, and you really can't do that unless you acknowledge the failure.

I had a turnover and three missed shots down the stretch. I just have to make sure I calm my nerves.

I'm just trying to be the best player that I can be.

I'm my own biggest critic, and the only way I'm going to improve is to see what I was doing wrong.

If you don't see anything wrong with your game, you need to wake up.
