Working with all of these kids is great. It doesn’t get any better than this, to come down and inspire kids who want to play the game of basketball and put smiles on their faces.
Steph is scary. I’ve never seen anyone who can shoot the ball off the dribble like him. He got it going in 4th. Every game is different.
We want to win it all. The only reason we play this game is to win championships.
I’m not afraid of nothing, I just like the challenge, and I love being here.
I will have no problem coming to practice on time. The locker room is great, but we have to prove ourselves on the court.
A lot of people were saying that I was a selfish person and a selfish player. You know, it got to me.
It’s a humbling experience for me to be in this position.
I’ve always been a leader. I’ve always kind of been the tallest person on the team when I was younger but always kind of the smartest. I was ahead of my time. I wasn’t always the oldest, I kind of was the youngest on the team, but, I kind of knew what to do at times.
I don’t let individual statistics make me a focus or more of a focus. I just tried to come out and attack early and get a big lead. We were able to take it in overtime and win.
That’s all our team is about. If we stop people, we’re the most athletic team in this whole tournament and we can get out and get easy buckets.
I was blessed with a God-given talent and my mother raised me the right way.
We played well all the way until, like, the second quarter.
Hollywood dishes out too much praise for small things I won’t let it get me, but too much praise can turn a fellow’s head if he doesn’t watch his step.
If I could clone myself, we’d be all right. But I can’t.
A LeBron James team is never desperate.
That team across the way, you tip your hat to them. They did a great job. It showed in these Finals.
Once you squeeze toothpaste out, you can’t put it back into the tube. The same is true with our words. Once we say something hurtful, we can’t take it back.
I’m going to be one of the top four that’s ever played this game, for sure. And if they don’t want me to have one of those top four spots, they’d better find another spot on that mountain. Somebody’s gotta get bumped, but that’s not for me to decide. That’s for the architects.
We were playing every game to win, we just happened to win 27 in a row. Our motto was to try and go out and win every game, but there’s nothing really to talk about.
When you get to know some of the history of the game, Oscar Robertson is one of the names that pops up first.
