You make your own luck in life, so I'm not criticizing anyone - and I'm not even talking about myself for that - but I mean, every year, look at the team that wins. You can't control everything in a team sport. So I'm not going to cry about it, but yeah, there are moments where I'm like, "F - k." But I say it almost in an appreciative way, in a way where I realize it's great not everyone can do it. I wasn't fortunate enough to do it, but that's what makes winning a title so special.

It's important for us, if we're going to be a good team, to be a good defensive team in the fourth quarter.

You should be able to voice your opinion and respect the voice of the other side. You should be willing to educate yourself and know what it is you're dealing with.

I think it's important that people stand up for what they believe in. It's important that people discuss things.

We love playing together and we love adversity. You know, back-to-back, the two best teams in the East.

We've got very few bodies right now so we were tired, but we've also got a lot of character and we want to win.

I think it was wishful thinking of me to dream of being an NBA player. And once I made the NBA I dreamed of being an All-Star, but I never dreamed of being an MVP.
