Believe Quotes
If we had come back with the same team as last year, it would have been a disaster. We didn't have the firepower to sustain what we needed in this conference. Last year was a honeymoon year.

Born Quotes

And I don't think players today in this league have a dislike for each other anymore. There's just too much backslapping and hugging and all that stuff.
