“Expectations, whatever is happening, you can’t let any of that dictate anything. Where you get drafted, getting drafted here, none of that.”
“At the end of the day, all that matters is how you approach, how you practice and how you work. That’s all that matters.”
“People get so bogged down with stuff that, one, they can’t control, or two, doesn’t matter.”
“I personally try not to ever get too high or get too low. Just keep the main thing the main thing.”
“‘He can’t do this. He can’t do that.’ I’m not going to listen to you say the good things or the bad things about me because it’s irrelevant.”
“It’s all about the things I can control. It’s always been that way since I was a kid. I know it makes my pops smile when I’m sitting here telling grown men, ‘Keep the main thing the main thing. Control what you can.’”
“These little snippets of me trying to get these guys ready and focused, it’s all stuff I was raised on. I was prepared for it. I was built for it.”
“Everybody is going to have an opinion, but everybody and their opinions don’t deposit at the bank.”
