I don't think we'll shoot 76 percent in a half ever again. That's crazy.
Yeah, I know there's been all this talk this year especially about the 3-point shot and can you win shooting it. There's a lot of different styles that can work. You have to base it on your own personnel.
Roddy how many times have you won a World Championship?
I'm not skilled enough to explain properly how we feel. Not only me, but I'm sure Tony and Tim and Pop feel the same way. Last year was a tough one for all of us. We felt like we had the trophy, that we were touching it, and it slipped away. We all felt guilty. We got to this spot, and we didn't let it go.
Steve held us to a high standard. He told us he was going to when we first met him at the USA camp. He's been a great leader. I mean, the guy always keeps his composure. He has an amazing mind for the game, and man, Steve, I'm just proud of him. The way he's balanced everybody and let us know what our roles are, he's been great for us. Him and the whole coaching staff. We all deserve this together, we work so hard.
I'm just thrilled for so many people. Our players, mostly, but the people in our organization - Rick Welts, Joe Lacob and Peter Guber and the whole group. It's just a phenomenal group of people. I think as a coach you just appreciate kind of the big picture a little bit more.
I enjoy the competition and whatever it takes throughout the competition, I will do it.
You aren't going to win championships unless you make layups and free throws.
Not even thinking about anything. My mind is a blank. We just want to enjoy the moment.
All 14 guys on the team have sacrificed something to get to this point.
Its Not a Belt, its a Championship Title!
I've been blessed with an amazing group of guys in my first year, I can't believe how lucky I am.
Obviously he deserved that Finals MVP award. He is a great talent and he is a huge reason why we are celebrating.
You're measured by championships no matter what.
If that's the last image of Michael Jordan...how magnificent is it!?
So after 11 years you're just picking up all this information. I'm a basketball junky, so I watch old players. The '90s was a great era of basketball. I watched so much of that. That just helped me be a student of the game and pick up any moment. It's the 10,000 hour rule. You're just trying to master your craft.
It's not about being a head coach, I'd rather be a DC at Auburn and win championships.
We want to get another one.
There is not that many players that really can take over games, signed Candace Parker, I really felt like at that time that a National Championship was certainly in reach.
Growing up, I always dreamed of winning an NBA championship, never a gold. A gold was something that never crossed my mind.
I'm proud of everybody in our organization. Not every story has a happy ending. Doesn't mean it's a bad story.
I'd like to win a championship for the Steelers and for myself to shove down Detroits throat.
LeBron doesn't have any weaknesses, or he doesn't have a glaring weakness. So you've got to pick up on the smaller things to try to make him uncomfortable. Like knowing which side he likes to shoot threes off the dribble, which side he likes to drive. One side he'll drive left more often, and the other side he'll drive right more often.
Each championship is unique and special.
I want to say congratulations to Cleveland and Coach Blatt. LeBron is an incredible player.
