I think this team thrives in the half court, more than the first three or four years I was here, when our offense was in the open court, and we struggled in the half court. I think we can score in both situations.

I think a veteran team never panics, and we did not panic. They made a run, and we expected they would make a run. We answered it and kept being aggressive.

In the first game, we kind of were a little passive. Tonight, I think we all understood that we couldn't go down two-love on our home court. So I think we came out with the intentions of playing defense for 48 minutes, and that's what we did.

I'm a high-risk taker on the court in the sense of trying to squeeze things in there.

The two things that are probably tied for first are winning a championship with the Mavericks and also being able to win a gold medal - two gold medals with Team USA.

I've just never understood why everybody tries to get the team in shape the first three or four days. I was in camps when I couldn't even walk the second day, let alone try to do something.
