You lose in the Finals, they're all disappointing. Doesn't matter if I'm playing in Miami, Cleveland or on Mars. You lose the Finals, it's disappointing.

You have to be able to accept failure to get better.

Cleveland fans are awesome.

I like criticism. It makes you strong.

In Northeast Ohio, nothing is given. Everything is earned. You work for what you have.
