That's what I was trying to do: be a reliable guy, dependable guy you know wasn't going to make a lot of mistakes. Maybe not high-ceiling, high-reward, but low-risk.

When you're in the right system, right fit and you got the right structure, it's easy to see certain players blossom. That was a key for me.

I'm going to do everything I'm supposed to do - except roommates. No roommates. I quietly paid for my own room on the road. I didn't want to tell anyone.

But yeah, a lot of people compare me to Magic. The physical appearance, the tall point guard, the ability to pass the ball. But comparisons are one thing, it's up to me to go out and play my game, get those wins, those championships, that's the only way those comparisons can get closer, but he's a legend.

I always strive to get better.

I play to win. If I have great numbers, that's great. Obviously you feel good about it, but still, I'm playing to win.

When you're playing spot minutes, it's harder to hit those shots. But if you're getting volume shots, now it's a lot easier to get a rhythm.

Taking care of yourself turns into a lifestyle after you're done playing. So you don't just fall off the wagon.

The advice I would've given my younger self is, 'Be patient; just hold on.'

We all have those friends that tick to their drum, and you don't want them to tick to anybody else's drum.
