You can't worry about things you have no control over.

Nothing is black-and-white, except for winning and losing, and maybe that’s why people gravitate to that so much.

The truth is I'm a bit old school. For me, it would be hard to put on a Lakers jersey. That's just the way it is.

Sometimes I'm very impatient. I also feel the need to please everyone, which is unnecessary and impossible.

Anytime you play a finalist it's going to be a challenge.

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.

I use a lot of balance training and functional training. Basically it's where you add an element of instability to a regular exercise. So whether it's on the physioball or the Bosu ball or just balancing on one leg, I try to incorporate an instable plane and/or movement to the exercise, so the body's doing two or more movements.
