Tonight we had our chances but we ran out of talent.

We did what we are supposed to. We protected home. We have to try to do it again Thursday night.

My family is happy. That makes my job a lot easier. For the fans, I try to put it all out there on the floor.

I learn from winning, because it's much easier to point out things when you lose. But I think the alternate competitors can point out a lot of things when you win.

But now, being a parent, I go home and see my son and I forget about any mistake I ever made or the reason I'm upset. I get home and my son is smiling or he comes running to me. It has just made me grow as an individual and grow as a man.

I just do what I got to do and go out and be myself, on and off the court, and take care of my obligations. That's generally your own destiny-knowing what you have to take care of.

The best teacher in life is experience.
