A Quote by Matt Barnes

In the NBA you better come to play every night, where in the NBDL the talent level just isn't there and maybe you have guys taking a night off.

It was even hard to imagine I was going to play in the NBA, because so many guys playing in Europe are not even getting to the Euroleague and everything. But everybody wants to play in the NBA. So when draft night came, it was a dream come true.

Ivica Zubac

Like I said, when you have to play against a great player every night, that defines who you are if you can compete on that same level night in and night out.

Dominique Wilkins

We're all about trying to play better every night, not just singing hit songs ... we ad lib, and every night there's jamming .. it's almost like the Grateful Dead meets Buck Owens some nights, because we'll go off on little adventures and sometimes we do crash the bus!.

Brad Paisley

You have to compete with LeBron James and Steph Curry, those guys, night in and night out. You can't take a night off. You just have fun, be humble, but continue to work.

Buddy Hield

The NBA has the best point guards in the world, so it is important that I come ready to play every night.

Steve Nash

There's a lot of guys in the NBA; it's about finding the right fit, a coach that has some trust in you that will play you night in and night out, consistently. Trying to find a right fit is the tough part.

Jimmer Fredette

Every season is so much different and you go through your ups and downs, you figure your team out, you get to play against great teams. Some of the best competition there's been since I've been in the league. Just every night, night in and night out we get to play against the top guys, the top teams. It's a lot of fun.

Blake Griffin

It goes without saying that there is a significant gap between the NBA and Basketball Australia in terms of catering to the players' needs so that we can perform at a high level night in, night out.

Patty Mills

Some guys lay their fannies out there every night - they play the game at such a high level, and they give so much that, frankly, they don't get credit for it. And I think it's tragic sometimes.

Jerry West

It was a lot of fun playing against one of the best players to ever play this game in Michael Jordan. For me it was a dream to play against him night in and night out in the NBA with the New York Knicks.

John Starks

If you play the same club every week of every month, it's kind of boring. It's great that you can play one night in Brazil and one night in Japan, one night in Europe, and see the world. It's amazing what you see if you travel around the world.

Tiesto

My ability to play off the pick-and-roll, open plays for other guys and use my athletic body to catch lobs, that's what I do every night.

John Collins

NFL, NBA, they all have off-seasons. Wrestling doesn't have an off-season. We're on the road 209 days out of the year, performing in different cities every single night.

Eva Marie

No one ever wants fight of the night. Every fight I've gone in, I want knockout of the night. I want to be in and out quick. Sometimes, these guys just have a lot of grit - they're highly trained, and I just can't get them out of there, so I get fight of the night.
