That's three championships. I don't anticipate another championship, but another win or two would be just fine.

I think this is the first step of championships. We want to win this championship, and it's just going to build up. (We'll) use this as preparation to upcoming championships. We want to win this tournament, and that's our main focus. In previous years, that hasn't been as high of a focus as it is this year, and I think that's a very good thing for us.

I told them, 'Shaq wants to win the championship. He wants to prove he can do it without Kobe. Detroit wants to get it back again,'

It feels amazing. I watched all three championships and I wanted to be part of it. I wanted to win that gold ball and that's what we did.

Sanborn will be competitive this season. Winning a championship fuels additional success. You don't win two straight championships without having a deep program.

It helps to win that championship.
