I think you should have a mindset of getting to the playoffs, because once you get in the playoffs, it is kind of a crapshoot.
I know winning 20 is a special kind of thing, but I'd rather get into the playoffs, and be strong for the playoffs.
Yeah, once you get a taste of the playoffs - I couldn't imagine not making it back to the playoffs. Give credit to LeBron and those guys who do it so many consecutive years.
I went to Golden State and helped them get to the playoffs my first year there, and they haven't been to the playoffs in 13 years. I played in Charlotte... and I got them to the playoffs. So, every team I go to, I make them better.
The most important thing is win enough games to get into the playoffs. Then, once you get into the playoffs, win.
I've been to playoffs before. That should be everybody's goal is the playoffs.
Well, of course you question it, especially when you get to this point. I always look at it would I rather not make the playoffs or lose in The Finals? I don't know. I don't know. I've missed the playoffs twice. I lost in The Finals four times. I'm almost starting to be like I'd rather not even make the playoffs than to lose in The Finals. It would hurt a lot easier if I just didn't make the playoffs and I didn't have a shot at it.
It's the playoffs, man. If you don't get excited about the playoffs, you don't even deserve to be playing basketball.
The first thought is always about making the playoffs. That's the tough part. And once you get there, only then you can allow yourself to start thinking how you are going to play in the playoffs against other teams. And a lot is left to chance then. There's an element of luck as well: sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you do not.
No matter how noble and special people want to make the playoffs out to be... it's a crapshoot.
Playing pretty big minutes in the playoffs and having career games in the playoffs is something you dream of as a kid but never really think will happen.
I don't just want to make the playoffs or get to the first or second round. When I compete or make it to the playoffs, I expect to win every time.
I feel like, by now, if you don't understand that the playoffs can be somewhat of a crapshoot sometimes, then you don't watch enough baseball.
I'm going to make the playoffs. You can believe that. To never play in the playoffs, that will not be my legacy.
The playoffs are unpredictable. You never know what can happen and how these playoffs go.
There's nothing less than that. I don't care about just going to the playoffs; I've been to the playoffs before.
It's the NHL playoffs, I'm 20 years old, I'm finding it out the hard way that playoffs aren't easy.
