“I'll take a nice assist any day over points.”

“A point guard is judged by wins and losses. I think I’m doing a good job.”

“We like what we've got coming together here. It’s a good mix of guys.”

“My responsibility is to get people into the offense.”

“I’m out there playing free, not worrying about if I make a mistake, I might have to come out or this or that—I can just go out there and play.”

“A lot of people have high expectations. I’m just going to do the best I can.”

"Whatever role they want me in, I’m here to do that."

"It seems like teams want a guy who can get 10, 11, 12 assists. That's the kind of player I want to be. Sometimes that is more important than scoring 30 points a night."

"They traded three first-round draft picks to get me, so they are expecting a lot."

"I try to get control of the tempo, control of the flow, and get my teammates the ball in the best position to score."
