I live my life trying to never appear to be a small man.
Because of the makeup of the NBA, it cannot afford for the public to turn on them.
I've always tried to tell myself that the work itself is the thing, that win, lose, or draw, the work is really what counts.
Every team that I've played on, I've either been the captain or co-captain.
They are taking steps, but they are baby steps.
My role models in the business were the older guys on my team when I first got there: Gray Scott, Adrian Smith, Roland Taylor. These were the guys who took me under their wing, and really schooled me in terms of what the business was about.
