Curtis Staples Quotations

I'm very critical of J.R., but with a lot of constructive criticism.

J.J. plays with that edge. When you see J.J. on the court, you can see it in his eyes. It's the eyes of a killer. He's really focused. His emotion seldom changes. If you watch him, whether he's making every shot or missing every shot, you can see that his facial expression never changes. He remains focused.

I've always said, like the old saying goes, records are meant to be broken. J.J. has been a hard worker and deserves everything that he gets. I'm glad to see somebody like J.J. breaking it. He's a very significant player that we will never forget.

It was one of those things where you had this kid that could really shoot, and all the other kids were far behind. I just remember telling everybody that the play was for J.J. every time down the floor.
