00:03 I'm just curious, you know, Ty said that--

00:06 PG said before the game that he was dealing

00:08 with some hamstring tightness,

00:09 and you obviously came out very aggressive tonight.

00:11 Over the course of your career, how have you learned to,

00:14 you know, whether you come out with an aggressive

00:16 to score mindset or aggressive to get guys involved,

00:18 how have you managed that sort of aggressive mentality

00:21 coming out in games?

00:22 I mean, I'm just playing the game,

00:27 I'm reading other teams' defense.

00:31 If I'm able to, you know, create and get a shot up

00:34 or create for my teammates, you know,

00:37 that's how I pretty much play the game.

00:40 Same mindset coming in, being aggressive, you know,

00:42 every time I'm in a position with the ball or, you know,

00:48 off the ball, just being ready to shoot.

00:50 Did you know Paul was dealing with some hamstring tightness

00:52 that affect your wanting to come out?

00:54 Not until later in the game, not until later.

00:57 But, yeah, just from there, just, you know,

01:03 kept the team focused and tried to get our guys shots.
