This is the first time, and it could be the last. |
We have to be prepared to play (without him). If he's here, of course, we're a better team. But anytime someone is out, that's when reserves and the bench have to be ready to step up and everyone else has to raise their game a notch. |
We know when we go in, that there is a specific job to do. It's hard keeping your legs warm, especially at this age, on the bench. But that's no problem. You know you have to be ready when your name is called. And we are. |
When I first came, I expected to play, and it just didn't work out that way. I don't second guess my decision or question myself as far as coming here. I think this still is the best situation for me. There still is a lot of basketball left. We still have nine games, we still have the playoffs and you just never know when you'll be needed. |
Winning a championship is the No. 1 target, ... and anything less is not an option at this point. |
You know what's guaranteed? You see us in a fight with a bear, you better help the bear. |
