0:15 on speaking with Steph Curry about the trade: "It was good"
0:22 on his role with the Warriors: "Uh, to help us win games"
0:28 on how he found out: "I was at my gym right here in Winston, playing pickup, hoopin' ... Little Chris (his son) came up to me and told me"
0:54 on his reaction when Little Chris told him: "It's crazy how life comes full circle. You know, for the last 10 years. I've been competing maybe longer than that against them but I'm all about winning."
1:28 "I'm grateful, like I said, to get an opportunity to play with, you know, that core group of players in Steph, Klay, Draymond, Looney, Wiggs, all them, play for Steve."
1:45 "it just happened. So I'm still processing it all ... I definitely want to get on the phone and talk to those guys and whatnot."
2:00 on fitting into the Warriors' system: "when you play with really good players, you figure it out."
2:30 "I had a funeral to go to this morning ... my great grandmother passed away ... it was crazy because in the book, I talk about funerals and how tough they are to deal with it."
3:04 "Then the trade, you know, I mean, so I'd actually almost forgot about the funeral for a second there when we was talking about that because it's so much you know, I mean, but you keep moving."
3:53 on what his first reaction was: "Um, I don't know. I just love to play basketball. I was playing basketball when I found out ... to see the excitement in my son, that was how I found out and to see his reaction. You can't be more happy"
4:52 on things left to accomplish: "Man, obviously it's that elusive championship. So going to a team with guys who have that pedigree ... with the coaching staff with the prime-time organization ... I still love learning ... seeing how I can be a piece or just be part of a puzzle to help our team win"
