Thoughts shift. Just because he pre-celebrated seven titles with Heat fans in 2010 doesn't mean he can't talk return to Cleveland fans in 2012. The most unfortunate part is that Oklahoma City center Kendrick Perkins looks right. At the end of a bitter...
Last night's game was one of those life affirming moments that reminds me that no matter how star-driven the NBA is, at the end of the day stars need teammates to help them win games. As we knew going into the game against the Warriors, clubhouse...
Over the next several days, I will be examining perceptions, realities, and takeaways, from the idea of building a team, namely following the "OKC Model." What I find fascinating is how Jazz fans interpret "following the OKC model." I asked on twitter...

That [video] was unbelievable. You know I really appreciate it
It's nothing where I was trying to do something crazy, I just couldn't let him score on me
To be honest, I [didn't know what to expect Monday], I was confused
Mentally, I was out of it
I got a great bond with the guys here also
I was hearing them say it about me ... I had to catch myself. It's kind of hard. You get emotional at times. At the same time, you have to come in and focus on playing basketball. So you have to balance out the two, which makes it really hard. You miss everybody around, you grew around and (had) a relat...
I’m definitely happy with where I’m at
It will be emotional, I'm sure ... But you have to remind yourself where you are and remember that it's a basketball game. You had friendships with these guys, so it's hard. But I'm going to have to put my scowl on because I'm pretty sure KG [Kevin Garnett] is going to have his scowl on.

I hope I don't get too emotional or nothing like that, I gotta at least try to keep a little scowl on my face
Our locker room is locked in
I kind of expected it a little bit
I'd be lying if I told you I didn't look for it ... With the short season, I didn't know if we would be going back there. I'm looking forward to it.
This city's been good to me since I came into the NBA as a young man at 18 ... I never take it for granted and I definitely appreciate all the support when I come back to the New England area. You know I hated to leave.
I never knew how much I missed being here
It kind of felt like the worst day of my life when I got traded from the C's, from being there so long. But when I got here, it kind of took my mind away from everything, I think, and everything just kind of blew me away
The crazy thing about it is I never made one meeting because I figured, it is not in my control ... So whenever we come to an agreement, I feel like we are going to come to an agreement that’s fair to both sides. But I haven’t been too worried about it—well, I have been worried about it because it is my...
I missed the whole city of Boston, the whole of New England ... and it just felt good playing basketball here. It’s always overwhelming.
I just been rehabbing a lot, taking a lot of pressure off my knees, and going from there ... I was just happy about playing basketball.
