Unless they changed the light bulbs in the arena, they won't be any brighter than they were last series. - Joe Mazzulla

Aren't we all? In someone's eyes. We're all villains in someone's eyes.

Blood. I mean, I wish it did. I just thought that was a moment, a way for me to express myself. The parquet, that's where the blood, sweat and tears of the greats (have been). So I don't get to go out there and dive on the floor for loose balls or like I'd love to or do any of that.

Zero. No pressure. We're all going to be dead soon, and it really doesn't matter anymore, so there's zero pressure. You're either gonna win or you're not. And when you win, you try to forget about it a week later and when you lose, you try to forget about it a week later. So it's not pressure, it's an opportunity. We have an opportunity here over the next few years, however long that we're together. [...] [...] So it's not pressure. There's nothing anyone in this circle can do to me that's gonna impact my identity and who I am as a person or a coach. We're either gonna win or we're not, and 40 years from now, none of you are invited to my funeral and that's it.
