00:00 I'm never thinking about a milestone when I'm out there battling and but when

00:05 it happens obviously we acknowledge it and you know obviously much respect and

00:10 much loyalty to the Laker fan base for showing me that love during the timeout

00:14 and being the first player to do something that's pretty cool in this

00:19 league because you just know the history you know the greats that's come through

00:22 the leagues and then you see some of the greats on the floor tonight it was just

00:25 great to compete versus that so but for me the main thing is always the main

00:28 thing and that's the win and I hate it that you know had to happen in a defeat

00:33 especially versus a team that you know plays extremely well basketball and we

00:36 played some good basketball tonight but wasn't able to close it out so

00:39 bittersweet you know but very I enjoyed every moment tonight though while on the floor.
