I was good. I probably could have gone to the NFL. I just hated practice.
From Kawhi Leonard
I like being the underdog so they don't expect what's going to happen. It pushes me to work harder and do the things I'm not doing better.
People in the NBA are just as athletic as you. That's the game. You have to have the change of pace. You have to change speeds to get around people.
Playing football helped me a lot. Just reading the quarterback's eyes and reading receivers, figuring out what they want to do.
I always wanted to play both ends of the floor. I never wanted to be one-dimensional.
Everybody plays back-to-backs.
I work all summer and throughout the whole season to be prepared for the challenges that I have to face.
There's nothing to be scared of. We're playing basketball. The only thing that could happen is you failing. But as long as you're going hard, there's nothing to be scared of for me. I don't know what there is to be scared of.
I don't watch ESPN, don't listen to the radio. I just go home and deal with my family.
Obviously, I like guys that can defend other positions. Draymond Green is doing a great job with Golden State. Jimmy Butler brings it every night when I'm out there.
