I just wanted to play hard - just to give my 100 percent to help my teammates, to help my team to win the game. That's my only goal going on the court.
I'm going to do my best to help the team play hard and help the team win... I'm just coming to play baseball.
Whenever I'm on the court, I just want to do whatever I can to help my teammates win the game.
It's what you work for and grind for. Just to get out there and play the game and try to help your team to win. And in doing that, you just help yourself.
If you play football, there's going to be a 100 percent injury rate. Something is going to be bothering you. So I just try to focus on the things that I can do to help my team.

I just want to be in there at the end of the game to try to help the team win. The last six minutes of an NBA game is where you make your name, so hopefully I'm in there trying to help my guys win.
You don't have to win to be a winner. If you give 100 percent, getting yourself mentally and physically prepared to play the game, if you look in the mirror and can say you give it everything to win, that's it. You're not going to win every time.
I don't play for the attention; I work on my skills every day so I can go out and play my role to the fullest to help the team win. That's my No. 1 goal when I step on the court.
I'm just worried about winning baseball. I'm only worried about what I can do to help the team win. It's about improving in every facet of the game. I think that's everyone's goals. Whatever we can do to help the team win is what we'll do. I think Andy has done a great job of coming in and helping our offense. AD is getting those pitchers ready. Coach Mainieri is going to coach up some wins this year. We are very excited and working on every facet of the game.
In the past, I played No. 10 and No. 9 sometimes when I had to help the team. I can play there and help my team-mates and my team; it's not important where I play. It's important to win the game.
There's always going to be a lot of distractions in the NFL - that's just how it is; it's on the biggest stage - but really focusing on what I have to do now to help my team win, help me be at my best physically when I'm out there on the field and mentally, because that will ultimately help my team no matter what role I'm playing.
With me, and people know this, since I've gotten to the league the first day I've always been about trying to help my team win, trying to play for my teammates. That's just the way that I am.
I'm busy working on every aspect of my game - defense, shooting, rebounding - but I really want to become a better overall team player. Help my teammates become better players out on the court in order to win more ball games.
Wherever I am I just try to be there for my teammates on the floor and put forth effort and help our team win.
My only goal is to play 162 games and help this team win. If I can do that, everything will take care of itself.
I think I can come in the game, bring a lot of energy on both sides of the ball. Just try to play my part and do anything to help the team win.
