It's not necessarily about getting a rhythm. It's about me and my teammates getting a rhythm together and making a run. We feel like we have something special but we have to put in the work to get to that special level.

You want to go to the playoffs with a bit of a swagger. It's not to the level we want it to be. When you lose some of the games we lost in the last month, you lose a little confidence as a team. The way we played in the last six games gives us a little confidence. It really goes back to us playing hard.

This team is really focused [now]. We've been through an awful lot, not only last year, but the last two years.

That's what's crazy about it. How can you not invite one of the world's top five or 10 players? That's mind-boggling to me. I guess [USA Basketball] has their plan. I just hope it works.

I really didn't like the pinstripes.

This team is really focused. We've been through an awful lot this last year, over the last two years. This entire team played really well. Everybody came in and contributed in some shape, form or fashion.
