Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving on when the switch flipped on him being a leader and his leadership as a whole:
“Last summer when we got exited from the playoff contention and I’m watching my peers go for a chance at winning the golden trophy…You get motivation from failure…This year I really focused on doing the little things, and if my points came, they came, but I wanted to make sure we felt good as a team after every single game and we got to be honest with each other, we had a lot of long meetings with J-Kid, sometimes it felt like therapy…Once I saw we had a chance, I was like well I’m not going to take this for granted, so every single day I remind those guys what it’s like to fail, what it’s like to get to that mountain top…”
