“I love his humility. He goes out, every time someone asks him a question, he says, ‘This is not about me, man. I just want to win. I don’t care about what I did.’
“I seen he had a triple-double one game and they lost. He was like, ‘I don’t care. We lost.’ […]

“Do guys want to play with him? Absolutely, because it’s a guy who is not about him. It’s about the success of the team.”
