My biggest fear had always been getting hurt, and not being able to leave the game as a player on my own terms.

I came in the league as not a shooter, not a scorer. My game was to play defense and make my teammates better. The most important stat to me was that left column - winning. Nothing else matters.

I'm a big fan of the game. Seeing these young guys play at the level that they are, I just wish I was 22, 23 years old so I can handle the game the way they do.

You've got to keep it. You worked this hard. You don't want to just give it away. We have to come out with the mind-set of what we did in Games 2 and 4.

All of the sudden we win two games on the road and the streak started there.
