That's a great team out there, We showed character.

Vitanda est improba Siren Desidia. (That shameful Siren, sloth, is ever to be avoided.)

Guy did a great job, I'm not angry. We were victorious that's what matters to me.

You can't force anything, but when the opportunity presents itself, if the ball was in my hands, I was going to do it.

I think of everything I have been through... It makes me see how blessed I am. I've done real hard labor, working as an electrician and stuff. I was out of basketball, working labor jobs to make money. I could have stayed there, done the work, and made a pretty good living for my family. But I couldn't let basketball go. I had to see this all the way through, and I am glad I did. You will never hear me complain. I have nothing to complain about. I've been on the other side. I know how it is in the real world.

This is a big opportunity. I've got to try to go out there and do more, and I have no problem with that. I'm a person who refuses to fail.
