Once you declare your loyalty to a team, every person who doesn't support that team, it's their job to ruin you, to tell you you're an idiot and to tell you that you made the wrong choice.

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to trust your team. It's a lesson I've had to relearn quite a few times.

The way you build trust with your team is around super-clear communication in that instant when they say, 'I will be sad if you don't do X.' You have to say, 'We're not going to do X, and here's why, and believe me, you'll be much sadder later if I let you go do it and you spend a bunch of time on it and nothing ever happens.'

You've got to be extremely careful, because you could be with a great team, and you could be the product of a great team. There are some players that stand out despite the teams that they play on, and there are some players that are good because of the team that they're with.

You can't just beat a team, you have to leave a lasting impression in their minds so they never want to see you again.

I am a member of a team, and I rely on the team, I defer to it and sacrifice for it, because the team, not the individual, is the ultimate champion.

The important thing is that your teammates have to know you're pulling for them and you really want them to be successful.

You wear your team out, and it's hard to get them back.

My fans are always extremely loyal.
