To me, teamwork is a lot like being part of a family. It comes with obligations, entanglements, headaches, and quarrels. But the rewards are worth the cost.

I think helped our players in terms of being able to fight through some adversity along the way.

You can't pick and choose the days that you feel like being responsible. It's not something that disappears when you're tired.

If it doesn't bother you, it won't bother them.

I think that it was a great feeling and probably a little bit more special because of the length of time that had passed before we won, but I think more importantly, it was just a great feeling because this team had such strong leadership and they had great chemistry.

Offense sells tickets, defense wins games, rebounding wins championships.

Our emphasis is on execution, not winning.
