You know hard work will eventually show up for our team and I think that's what the case is now.
We're not playing desperate. Like I've been preaching all season, hard work will eventually turn out and show up for our team.
I'll joke all day, but once I get in the gym, I'm going to work hard.
Coming out of high school, I think it was good for me instead of going to college because college and the NBA are two different things. You can dominate on the college level, but the NBA is a whole different story. The dudes that do the best are the ones who work hard.
I hated that perception that I didn't work hard, that I really don't love basketball.
At first I couldn't grasp why he was always so hard on me. But I realize now he just wants me to be a great player. He knows that in my background no one ever really got on me. But he's not afraid to give me some tough love to make me better.
It's hard for me to block basketball out, but I'll try to stay away from it for a good month and a half. I expect us to be a little more serious, a little more business-minded next year. No team is going to give us anything.
The first half, they took our hearts. We just came back and got our hearts back. We fought so hard to get back into the game. Marshall hit the shot at the end of the game ... we were supposed to get that win.
It's not impossible to win them all. You try to win every game. We've got six at home, where we've been playing well. If we keep playing hard and playing together like we have been, anything is possible.
I can't wait. Everybody on this team is a hard worker, and I'm sure they're going to work to get better as individuals.
