I got the chance to experience the full effect of New York and win in New York. There's nothing better.

I appreciate the city of New York just embracing me, and Brooklyn in general.

I think I created my own narrative, being a guy who kind of got chewed up and put through the grinder and coming out on top.

I did my first winter in New York and that was tough. So to get the opportunity to go somewhere where it's warm again, I think that played a major part in my plan.

I'm the best player in the draft. I truly feel that way. But I feel like you can ask anybody in the draft and they would have said the same thing. I just feel like I showcased it on many levels and I was put through so many different scenarios where I had to make the best out of it. And I had a lot of success with it.

I just really try to model my game after Steph Curry.

Every year you want to keep elevating you. And that's what I want to do.

Guys that get that second year under their belt, get the first year under your belt, you come back with a different swag and a different confidence, a different pace to your game. You can showcase what you've been working throughout the summer.

If I've lost anyone's trust, I'm going to work my tail off to get it back.

I'm playing against my peers, and if my peers respect me, that's all I can ask for.

I understand every piece of business in this league.

I take pride in creating genuine relationships with people that genuinely care about you.

When it comes to basketball you always want to put the ball in the hole. You want to get as consistent and get that muscle memory right and be consistent.

Yeah, once you get a taste of the playoffs - I couldn't imagine not making it back to the playoffs. Give credit to LeBron and those guys who do it so many consecutive years.

That's my ultimate goal, just being a part of something special.

A lot of teams - they want a point guard and I am bouncing around, why not put me in those talks and try to get me?

I am comfortable with being uncomfortable.

I got ice in my veins!

I hate talking to media. I hate it, man. You have to. But it's crazy. I thought there were only two things in this world that you had to do, and that was die and pay taxes. Now I know that you've got to talk to media. And I hate it.

If you save your money right, you can have what you want.

I'm the weirdest alien on this planet. I don't do anything by routine.

I liked Cleveland, they got so much heart in that arena.

When a coach tells you to shoot the ball, it's like a green light for you. You can't want that more than anything. But the catch is you got to be good enough to know that when you're not open, you gotta pass.

You always can count on New York fans to be there.
