    GA: Winning is fun. In every league, in everything that I do, I want to win. I don?t want to be a loser. I don?t want to be labeled a loser. We feel good about what we?re trying to do here, and with winning comes the fun.

    Does it seem like everything is easier when you win?
    GA: We were talking about it on the bus. I like to joke around, and the jokes are a lot funnier when you?re winning. It?s not funny when you?re losing. Life and basketball are a lot easier when you?re winning.

    So you?re the captain of the fun squad?
    GA: I loosen up the team. In college at Arizona we had more comedians on one team than all of the rest of the teams out there combined. I think that was good for us. We did a lot of winning. We weren?t all that serious, unless it came to basketball. As soon as we stepped on the court, it?s all serious. We may have been joking around five minutes before the game, but when we hit the floor, it?s over. That?s what I?m used to. I know when to turn it on and off. Coach Lute Olsen taught us that. All I want to do is win when I?m on the court. We?ll have fun if we win. </div>
