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

I'm very, very confident in my ability to see the game - even before it's played.

I have short goals - to get better every day, to help my teammates every day - but my only ultimate goal is to win an NBA championship. It's all that matters. I dream about it. I dream about it all the time, how it would look, how it would feel. It would be so amazing.

Everywhere I've been, I've been the best player. I love being a leader, and I love being the best. I just want to get better. It's not about being cocky or selfish or anything like that. It's just how I am.

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.

I'm not afraid of nothing, I just like the challenge, and I love being here.

I'm like a superhero. Call me Basketball Man.
