Criticism is going to come while you're injured, but you just have to work through it, stay mentally tough ... I think he has something to prove this year.

It's been great with Paul. I think I complement his game, because I don't dominate the ball that much. I'm more of a spot-up guy. I don't dribble the ball to get my shots. I feed off of him and the double teams he draws. We've gotten along great, and I'm looking forward to playing with him for a lot of years to come in the future.

We gave up 111 points, that's not good. They knocked on our door the whole fourth quarter, but we found a way to win the game.

It doesn't matter who gets the shots in the fourth. Trenton was making plays. We were milking him. He was killing them down there. As long as we get the job done as a team, there shouldn't be any agendas. You just go down the floor and play aggressively and try to get the best possible shot you can as a team.

I just tried to show the team that I was healthy last year and I was capable of what I was capable of a couple of years ago before the injury. I want more put on my shoulders and I have to step up to the plate.

We made wholesale changes. A whole new coaching staff. It's a fresh start for pretty much everyone. We had to get younger. We lost Sam and Spree. They were great players, all stars in this league, so we have to find a way to make up for those guys. I think we're going to do it with hard work and playing our roles.
