“I've always talked on-court and off-court. It's not something tough for me.”

“Representing Australia is huge reason why I play.”

“I get emotional. I get into the game a lot and I enjoy it a lot.”

“No one hates each other off the court.”

“I'm very good at being able to talk to people and kind of get people off their game.”

“Playing for Australia, if they told me at 36 or 37 or whatever I'm going to be, that I can go to camp and possibly make a fifth Olympics, then why not?”

“The numbers I've shot, the percentages, they obviously are what they are and people are going to dissect everything but, I honestly feel like they're all going to go in when I shoot the ball.”

“I try to represent myself, my family and my country the right way.”

“I'm not a video game guy.”

“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 loved my juniors growing up and how fun it was.”

“For me, playoffs was always the goal.”

“I feel like Salt Lake is a home for me now and it's become a home for my family.”

“It's funny, because not everyone can make the NBA, but timing and being in the right situation is something that can make or break someone or a team.”

“I'm excited to partner with the No. 1 residential basketball company in the world. Lifetime makes some of the best hoops around, and I share a lot of their values.”

“I never go into a game thinking of talking to anyone.”

“I think I've shown patches of being a good defender and then I've gotten lazy off the ball and you make a stupid play and you look like you can't guard anybody.”

“At the end of the day, if I can keep playing defense, I'm going to be able to stay on the floor, and obviously that's what everyone wants to do.”

“It's hard to think about the national team when you are with your club side and so invested in your team, your individual self and trying to win a play-off series.”

“Starting or not I couldn't really care less.”
