I just want to play hard and do the things coach asks me to do.

When I was younger I always liked to pass.

When I get the rebound - push the ball. That couple of seconds when you're trying to find the point guard, you're losing in transition. You rebound, push the ball and the whole game is faster.

We cannot think about playoffs. We just need to play the games.

Basketball is an emotional game.

Of course, we're going to talk trash or whatever. Both teams just want to win the game.

Maybe in the huddles I say something more. But I say it... not to become a leader, it's just to help my team out.

When I am aggressive, I think that is going to help my teammates.

As long as I can take open shots or good shots, I'm going to take it.

If I get stronger it's going to be easier for me to play.

The paint is something we need to defend.

Passing is kind of in my game all my life.

You can see that just with the passing, you can destroy the defense.

I don't usually talk much.

I don't think I'm that funny.

I'm kind of normal guy.

I mean, if I could score 40 every game, then I would score 40 every game. But I think I cannot score 40 every game, so I'm gonna pass a little bit, too.

I'm trying to be the best I can be in what I do.

I am not athletic.

To be honest, if we're underdogs, we like it; if we're favorites, I like it. It's something that you cannot let affect you.

We don't think about what anybody else with the media or other teams think about us.

I don't like to watch the future too much.

You need to be consistent. Every game is important for you and your team.

I think it's not just me. I think there is a lot of guys in the NBA that - just kind of big men in the NBA that can affect the game in so many ways.

I was always really good with the ball, I was always passing the ball, scoring, shooting the ball. I think for me, that's just a normal thing.

We as a team, as a group, we need to go out there every game and every day to do our best and try to win our games.

The team is always bigger than an individual or whatever, and a really good team can win a championship.

I cannot change myself. That's how I think. That's how I like basketball.

In the NBA, it's different. You must do everything. Defense, offense, shooting, everything. I wanted to prove myself here and I will prove myself here.

Every season, I get better and learn new stuff.

After the first season, I got some experience and got older.

You must be fast. Bigs are fast, running all over the court. You must be ready for that.

I just wanted to play hard - just to give my 100 percent to help my teammates, to help my team to win the game. That's my only goal going on the court.

I just love to pass.

I just want to improve myself.

It's really cool. I don't know how many people in the world have a silver medal. Maybe a thousand?
