When I think of my career, I can't help but think of the kid with his ball, falling in love.

For the most part I try to just stay focused not on my play but on our team.

I don't think coaches should have to wear mic's. It is an invasion of privacy. We are trying to accomplish things, and wearing microphones may hinder development by straining the nature of relationships coaches and players have.

What really excited me at the end was the challenge of being the best I can be and prolonging my best level and playing against the best players in the world. But now that I don't have the opportunity to play against the best players in the world when it counts, in front of fans, it doesn't excite me as much.

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

Besides P.E., geography was my best class in high school. I was in this gifted class when I was younger, and it was wicked!
