00:00It's a lot of talk that you and Luke could possibly be the greatest backcourt in NBA history.
00:05I mean, it doesn't mean anything if we don't win a ring together.
00:08And I say that very responsibly, too, not saying that we aren't great now,
00:15but there are other backcourts that are more deserving right now for that recognition.
00:20I think once we put a good run together and we can look back on it and reflect on it,
00:25then that'll be our time.
00:26But right now I want to show a lot of respect to the guys that have come before us
00:29and have actually did it, and our time will come.
00:32We've just got to keep putting in the work
00:34and continue to feed each other that positive affirmation energy,
00:37and we'll go from there, man.
00:39But right now we're just focused on enjoying the moment,
00:41enjoying how well we're playing as a team.
00:44And you're seeing some special basketball from me and Luka,
00:47but we wouldn't be here without our teammates.
00:49So full-on team success, man.
