My oldest brother and my middle brother would always beat me up and take the ball from me. I used to cry a lot, so I used to come in here and get my dad. He used to be on my team, so he used to hold them down and let me score the basket. |
Nah, ... The trash-talking cost me a lot of money, now... |
Name a better backup point guard in the league. |
Pat has won championships, and he knows what to do to get that extra `oomph,' |
That was a big change in my life. I thought I was going to be there the rest of my career. That's all I was asking for. |
That's not why they came here, to win a Western Conference championship. |
That's troublesome. You always have to think about beating these guys. They come into the playoffs, they think they've got your number. |
That's what the NBA is about, two young up and coming guys having big games like that. |
The simple fact is back in the day when (guard) Alvin Robertson and (guard) Derek Harper were guarding you, they could hand-check you and do everything else and you had to shoot over them. They were making it tough for you. You had to earn everything. |
They wanted the scores to go up because they wanted the fans to come back. They want high-flying dunks, a lot of people scoring and that's what they're getting. The people they want to see score, they're getting that, and their TV ratings go up. |
They're all athletic and young and they're all free willing. They (Chicago) are playing really loose. It's going to be a good challenge. We're going to have Shaq back in there and all of us playing on the same page with everybody back. |
They're athletic and young and they're all freewheeling. They're playing really loose, so it's going to be a good challenge. |
They've got a legit team. You can't go in there and say it's a win. You've got to take those guys seriously now. |
This is what we're supposed to be here for. We're supposed to step up for things like this. |
We all had a skip in our step. We had to go out and prove we can play against a top team. We went out and established ourselves. |
