    In an odd way, all the appliances that the advertisers put out there, and said, `Buy this brand-new stove!', `Buy the fridge!' `Make Jell-O!', all that horrible nutrition that came up because of instant pudding, Jell-O, fish sticks, TV dinners, all of that that I had before dismissed as the death of our culture -- I realized that housewives wanted these things, because they wanted time back, ... A washing machine gave them time to do something else. It gave them time to read a book. ... A woman didn't want to cook all day. These things that were sold to Americans were actually a gift, in a very strange way. I really enjoyed having to blow that notion out of my head.

(Guarding Morrison) isn't something you ask for. It's a job, whether it's Adam Morrison or whoever the top player is on the opposing team. It's something we do night in and night out. I'm going to approach it like I approach every other game. My job is to limit him as much as possible. I've had my share of experiences throughout the year. It's just another game for me.
