Everything surrounding our team is just crazy to think that we're still in first place and we're still the team to beat, honestly, i feel like we're the team to beat. It's open season until we get into the playoffs. I have a lot more confidence than I think anyone realizes in our team and what's going on in our locker room.

Basketball isn't a game; It's an art form. You master the fundamentals so you can forget 'em, so you can improvise and just concentrate on what really matters: getting buckets.

Growing up, I was a typical high school kid when YouTube first came out, and I was just watching a whole lot of videos of guys in the league I'm playing with now, guys that aren't in the league, and guys that came before me, just watching the moves that they do, and going out in my backyard and trying them. I did it almost every single day. And I didn't do any crazy dribbling drills or any two-ball dribbling drills. I'm really not good at two-ball dribbling. Nah, never did that. I just went out and tried the moves that I saw.

I knew there was going to be a spark off the bench. ( On Sunday) Gordon Hayward was Gordon Hayward, this is Gordon Hayward city. Im glad Gordon Hayward had a chance to put on a performance like that in a closeout game.

I had to call Bron, and tell him I apologize for being that young player that wanted everything at his fingertips, i wanted to be the guy that led us to a championship. I wanted to be the leader. I wanted to be all that.

We made shots, we made (the Clippers) come into defensive rotations. We made it uncomfortable for DeAndre to come out and guard Kevin when we went small and (James) goes to the four, so it was hard for them to match up with us when we go small like that.

It's only one of 82, but we knew what we came here to do, and that was to take care of business, we knew it would be a hard fought game in this arena, and we were locked in. They made a run in the third quarter, but we came back in the fourth quarter and overtime.

Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love definitely played like the champions.

We stuck to the game plan, we didn't want a talented guy like James Harden to beat us. We wanted their other guys to beat us and we forced him to pass off to other guys and we trusted our weakside rotation.
