There is an entire culture out there built around siphoning money from an athlete, and the young men and women who come through just feed the machine.

When I hit one over, I knew I was good.

Everyone has to do their job. Everyone has to buy into it and believe in what we're trying to do regardless of who's playing and who's not.

Inside the first 20 to 25 games of the season, we were losing these games, getting beat by two and three points. Over the last 10 games, it seems like we're starting to win these games and putting some good things together.

Everything I know now . . . the pitfalls, the highs and lows, everything . . . it taught me and made stronger.

When people say God blessed me with a beautiful jump shot, it really pisses me off. I tell those people, 'Don't undermine the work I've put in every day.' Not some days. Every day.
