Over the course of the game you're probably going to have 10 turnovers or so just because you're playing hard, you're competing, that's the way the game goes. But it's the other 10 that you have to limit. You can't have the careless ones, the ones where guys are cutting backdoor and you throw it, or you try the hail mary pass.
Quote by -Joe Harris
I know what my game is and what I do well and I'm just going to keep trying to I,prove and make sure I'm consistent as possible in those areas.
Quote by -Joe Harris
The teams that have got good continuity, good chemistry typically have more success.
Quote by -Joe Harris
I think I've gotten more comfortable and more confident on the defensive end. I've just been able to anticipate things a little bit better instead of reacting to how guys play offensively.
Quote by -Joe Harris
You're gonna have pretty bad defeats. But you've gotta be able to respond and come back in and compete the next night.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Even over the course of the NBA's schedule, you're gonna have games where you're gonna take your lumps.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Obviously, back-to-backs are tough... but everyone goes through it in this league.
Quote by -Joe Harris
You never want to see anybody get hurt... but if you've ever played basketball before you've probably sprained your ankle so that stuff happens. It's part of the game.
Quote by -Joe Harris
If you've got one guy that can create just a little bit of space for somebody that can get downhill, it opens up everything offensively.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Obviously, you hope to make shots. But you can't put too much pressure on yourself to make it, because whether or not they go in, you're creating space everybody else.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Obviously any time you play home in front of your own fans, you definitely get a distinct advantage that way.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Cleveland, although I didn't play a lot I really learned a ton in my year and a half of being there. I was really fortunate to be around some of the game's best players.
Quote by -Joe Harris
You've got to be able to guard hard and then work yourself offensively to get shots.
Quote by -Joe Harris
There have been lots of times in my career where you go four or five games and feel like you can't hit anything. And you also have the exact opposite.
Quote by -Joe Harris
If you look at all the top shooters in the NBA, guys that might be specialists like how I see myself, they're always 40 percent and above. So, that's a personal goal for me to get into that elite three-point shooting percentage.
Quote by -Joe Harris
When you have guards that are versatile, it just makes it a lot easier in terms of who you put on the court.
Quote by -Joe Harris
If someone has my number that I don't know and texts me a considerable amount I would just block the number.
Quote by -Joe Harris
In college you might think you travel a lot, but it is nowhere close to the NBA.
Quote by -Joe Harris
I liked the idea of being one of the foundations for Coach Bennett's program and trying to revive UVa basketball.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Every step of way, going from a small town to Charlottesville and playing in the ACC - that whole experience is a difficult adjustment. In all of that, you really grow as a person and as a basketball player.
Quote by -Joe Harris
I was fortunate in college to play as a freshman, but in the NBA, not a lot of rookies are coming in and making a significant impact right off the bat.
Quote by -Joe Harris
I was so competitive when I played. I was trying to get every loose ball, trying to get steals. That's what I was kind of infamous for in high school.
Quote by -Joe Harris
It was like a brother-sister type relationship with all of my cousins. Growing up we were always hanging out together. We all kind of looked after each other like brothers and sisters when we went to school and stuff.
Quote by -Joe Harris
I've grown up with the same people my whole life. I've had the same classmates from elementary all the way through graduating.
Quote by -Joe Harris
My parents have always told me it's better to write your goals out because then you can look at them every day. You're constantly reminded.
Quote by -Joe Harris
If you stay around in the NBA long enough, you're going to bounce around, your teammates are going to bounce around, but those friendships, they remain constant.
Quote by -Joe Harris
You don't look through the NBA schedule and say, 'this is going to be an easy night.'
Quote by -Joe Harris
I think at the end of the day, regardless of who you're playing against, there's talent on every single team in the NBA.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Yeah, I think any time you're comfortable playing within a system you're going to play more aggressive. You're going to play with more confidence.
Quote by -Joe Harris
You don't really coach high school basketball because it's a good paycheck. You do it because you love it, care about the kids and you're just passionate about the game.
Quote by -Joe Harris
The NBA is a difficult thing because the head coaches, they definitely have one of the more difficult jobs and one of the jobs with, I guess, little amount of security as possible. There's so much turnover all the time.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Everybody has a different path to making it in this league. I was fortunate to get an opportunity here in Brooklyn.
Quote by -Joe Harris
There's only so much you can do as far as individual skill work and conditioning on a bike. But you can't simulate playing in an actual game. And it can't satisfy the competitive itch you feel as a player.
Quote by -Joe Harris
Coming into my rookie year, I could kind of eat whatever I wanted - you're really not too concerned about it. But you don't realize that a pound here and there is really not a good thing. It's just basic physics: it's harder to move faster and jump higher when you weigh more.
Quote by -Joe Harris
The conditioning aspect of things is really important, obviously in basketball, and then specifically for players like me.
