We have to continue at a high level and make them take tough shots.
We defended. We made them keep tough shots, and we executed offensively.
A team like Golden State, when they get into a rhythm they make shots.
I've put our guys in position. I gave them the blueprint. I think they're ready.
If a great opportunity opens itself up, I would love to be involved... or star in a movie.
The best option for me to do was not to move. I tried, and any little nudge or step, it the cramping would get worse. It was the whole left leg ... nearly the whole left side. ... I drank a lot of fluids at halftime. I even changed my uniform.
I've given these guys the blueprint on how to win a premiership, now I just have to be patient until they're ready.
I was a Chicago Bulls, Michael Jordan fan growing up.
I love sharing the ball with my teammates. I see a lot of things before my teammates see them.
I hope I can help guys coming out of high school, if they need advice. I know the ins and outs of everything.
Sometimes the coaches tell me to be selfish, but my game won't let me be selfish.
They jumped on us. They were the aggressor. They had us on our heels from the beginning.
Don't think for one min that I haven't been taking mental notes of everyone taking shots at me this summer. And I mean everyone!
To all the positions, I just bring the determination to win. Me being an unselfish player, I think that can carry on to my teammates. When you have one of the best players on the court being unselfish, I think that transfers to the other players.
Teams make it tough on us, we make it tough on them. When you have two well coached teams that wanna win, it's going to be a competitive game.
He reminds me of Michael Jordan. "You look and they have similar games where they want to lead their team to victory, no matter if they have to shoot the ball every time or if they have to rebound or pass, they're going to find a way to win." I've always said that Kobe Bryant is the best scorer in our game today and he's definitely proving himself.
Know that I'm better solo. I invented solo.
Messi is the best player in the world. If he's not already, he'll be the best footballer of all time.
The man above has given me some unbelievable abilities to play the game of basketball. I just try to take advantage of it every night. I got the trust of my teammates and my coaching staff to go in there and let it go.
That team across the way, you tip your hat to them. They did a great job. It showed in these Finals.
For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man beholding his natural face in a glass: for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightaway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
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.
Tonight we had our chances but we ran out of talent.
I wouldn't feel good about it at all. At the end of the day I'm here to win a team prize, and that's to win a championship, not an individual prize.
As a professional athlete a lot is going to be said about you - but I just try to move forward and try to achieve my goals.
