I'm looking forward to being bashed and cursed out. That's going to be a lot of fun. |
I'm not like the savior. I can bring hustle, clutch shots and intensity to the game. My job is to make this team better. We have the opportunity to do something special this year, and I'm just trying to take advantage of it. |
I'm only worried about my fans, ... That's it. Indiana fans. |
I'm out of shape right now. I've been working out at my gym at home, but it's not the same as playing in an NBA game. It's going to take me about a month after I get traded for me to get back into basketball shape. |
I'm still going to be playing hard, out of control, just wild like an animal, |
I'm very edgy and I'm not going to balance it, ... (Last year) it's over now. I'm back now. Ready to play ball and sell some records. |
I'm very excited, very excited. I feel like it's a fresh start, like it's a blessing that I've got an opportunity to play once again. |
I'm working with what I've got, that's what I've got to go with. I'm not 100 percent, but it's fine. I can still play defense, still pass and do other things. |
I've got to just let it come to me in the offense, ... I just kept adjusting defensively. When I left last season, it was a totally different style, so I have to get back my timing and adjust. |
I've said it a thousand times. Referees miss calls. They missed that one, too. |
If there was a fight between the fans who loved me or booed me, I think the boos would have won. |
It doesn't matter. We're family. Family's got to argue sometimes. At the end of the day, brothers still love brothers. Sisters still love sisters. But there's no girls on the team. |
It feels like high school again. I had a really good team, and I was a much better leader. When I got in college and the NBA, I became selfish. Now, I'm back to my high school days. |
It felt good to play in front of people again. They gave everybody good receptions, so I was happy. |
It was a good win, you've got to enjoy the wins. But we can play better. |
