I've Learned That It's Harder To Try

You Hear All These Stories About, 'there's One In A Million Guys That Make It To The Nba And Stay There.' To See People Cheering For Me And When They Say My Name, It's Just Crazy. It's Still Crazy To Me.

All The Support From All My Friends, All My Family Over The Years, I Appreciate It.

When Russell Was Out, You Stepped Your Game Up For Me, For The Team. There Were Nights Where You Made Me Look Way Better Than I Am. You Clean Up So Many Of Our Mistakes, Man, And We Appreciate That. From Everybody On The Team, We Appreciate That, Man, And I Thank You So Much For Giving Me Confidence When I Didn't Have It, For Always Being There When I Wanted To Talk To You, When I Wanted To Call, For Arguing With Me All The Time, Making Me Better, And Realizing I'm Not Always Right. Thank You, Man. I Appreciate You.

Or I Could See Fish, Just A Button Up, Like A Mayor, Like A President, Just Demands So Much From His Teammates, Has Played With So Many Great Players, But Still Respects Everybody. He's 38 Years Old, And He Has Nothing Else To Prove, And I Said, "fish You Wanna Come Get Some Shots Up With Me?" And First Thing He Says Is "yes." He Always Wants To Learn. Even Though He's Done So Much In This League, Played With So Many Great Players, He Always Wants To Learn, And That Motivated Me To Know That It's Never A Point Where You Can Stop Getting Better. And He's A Guy That Made Me Realize That.

I've Got A Long Way To Go To Being The Ultimate Best, But I Think My Time Is Now. And I'm Starting To Enter My Prime.
